[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 197320"] Right on, Bro. As you point out, it's the eternal spiritual vs. carnal reality clash. Excellently illustrated by Albrecht Drurer (and any number of other artists) in the age past where the attitude of facing reality instead of trying to evade acknowledging it was taken for granted. Aristotle was reputed by the scholastics to have been the wisest man who ever lived (how Solomon got overlooked I don't understand). But whenever Phyllis showed up, she turned the tables and called his shots (notice the little whip in her hand). A picture's worth a thousand words -- check the link out.

It's a parallel reality that plays jolly hell with what would otherwise be a rational, rightly-ordered world. And there's no way around it. It's inescapable. So suck it up, and :face: [/QUOTE]
