That’s Paul speaking from experience. He’s been with those sluts that give you crotch rot.
However, just as decent refrigeration means we can now eat shellfish, decent antibiotics mean we can now be slutty sluts. It’s great not living in the first century CE.

@1 In Corinth the family of any fag would have told him (or her) you will damn well marry who we choose for you and marry them. If you wish to go have some Greek fun (this being the Roman capital of Roman Greece go for it. It was after all a city of business and pleasure.
Marriage is not as we see it today though it was somewhat more modern, and definitely not in the Jewish bent. \
Pauls devotion to being celibate in the ancient world (and encouraging others to be celibate) would have been seen as just plain weird. Not to mention why is one who has never been married believed to some expert about marriage. Maybe he should have tried it out in his 18 months in the city. Might have been more successful than his conversion of this cosmopolitan city. That most likely had a substantial gay camp. Without most of the modern world’s animosity toward it.
Paul frankly didn’t know what he was writing about, and certainly should not be considered an expert. For those of you wanting to know about Roman marriage here you go: http://www.pbs.org/empires/rom.....dings.html
Our Rabbit pecked RR is mush more an expert on marriage than Paul.

@3 Crotch rot or jock itch is a fungal infection. Does not require any association with any slut of either sex. Or even having sex. It’s an opportunist infection rather like athletes foot. Though if Paul visited the baths that could be a place he or any member of Roman society could pick up a case of jock itch.

@7,
For once, a topic about which you appear to demonstrate genuine expertise.

Maybe there is a middle way?
What if Washingtonian Republicans just took a pause (good grief! they’ve been so out of touch for years!)?
Don’t marry Trump!
Don’t burn!
Take a sabbatical this election!

@7 I don’t know. The baths were for washing yourself and scraping your skin with olive oil and sticks. But they had brothels galore and public toilets. And at the toilets they had little mops you “washed” your ass with that were passed around. I would think fungus would have been the least of their problems. As an aside, I also think the priesthood was devised so men could have sex without introducing outside diseases. Just speculation, but there seems good evidence.

Pretty sure this is why we needed Two Corinthians. Clearly the first is erroneous. I’d rather slide down a 50 foot razor blade into a bucket of burning alcohol than relive my first marriage.
Teabaggers Again spews:
Ohhhhh no it ain’t. No marrying them fags. If we marry fags we burn.
We let them fags marry and you see what happens, the country has already started to go downhill, another few months it will be burning.
Long live Ireland!
