Was there a point to that? And why in the religion folder? The only thing I could hazard a guess at is protesting nudity in art. But typically people who are so against nudity hesitate to show it, let alone make an entire video of it.

Or maybe you just like nudity and slow classical songs?

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Having been bitten by Tor's "art" before, I knew better and had the video on a second monitor while also reading the news, so he didn't outright steal 4 minutes of my life this time.

I think the warning could be better put:

"Warning: May contain traces of art. Does contain copious quantities of painful singing and kitschy video transitions."

John's just this guy, you know.

I too have seen one of TOR's groovin safari videos - so I didn't bother to look at it....

Why TOR?


Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

Boobies!!!


What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way. - Bertrand Russell

"I hope this video helps prevent neeedless cancer deaths."

Remind me never to go to an art museum with TOR.

Nope, not even titties can make me listen to that singing longer than 1.3 seconds. Sorry, I tried.

It's all about the words.....
and here are the words written by the Slave Trader

"Amazing Grace"

"Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That sav'd a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ'd!

Thro' many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promis'd good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below,
Will be forever mine."

[John New­ton, Ol­ney Hymns, 1779]

_________

Now moi's wee lyrics

"Tor Hershman's Amazing Grace"

"Amazing Grace how sweet her mounds
she gave a wretch like me
dick once was soft but now is sound
so hard I can not pee

‘twas Grace who pulled my heart so near
right next to her cleavage
so sexy did hot Grace appear
D-cup, I do believe

Though many hooters, sweet and bare
already made me cum
Grace has humped me the best so far
Grace's grace graced my bone

My load has squirted out of me
goo goes splat on the floor
then Grace makes me again horny
no need for pills, for sure

I hope when flesh and heart shall fail
and all of life shall cease
when mortician lifts up my veil
he views a worn-out piece

Earth, eons hence, dissolves like snow
the sun, red giant shine
but right here, right now, I do know
Grace made my twine feel fine."

Moi? Protesting Nudity?
As the National Lampoon stated many moon ago, "Every good Buddhist will tell you that all girls are naked, under their clothes.

Stay on Groovin' (Yeah, lots of glands) Safari,
Tor Hershman

Thanks for clearing that up….

And speaking of clearing things up, did you know there are products that are very effective in clearing up unsightly acne that plagues adolescents?

TOR, I am sure there are quite a few boys in middle school that would find those lyrics very funny and provocative. Well maybe grade school.

In addition to preventing prostate cancer, this video also clears acne.

Before watching video


After watching video


As we can all see, this video needs to be disseminated throughout society so as to prevent both acne and prostrate cancer!

Well, I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he just wouldn't let me. Ah well.
