  • Parson Jim and Ben Dover, I suppose I do see your point

    I'm listening to the Iliad on CD right now.

    I suppose it would have been wrong for Briseis, for example, to complain that she was kidnapped and given to Achilles as a slave merely because she was a woman, when all her male relatives had probably been slaughtered by Achilles and his friends just because they were men.

    So I do get your point about all of the unfair accusations we terrible guilty women make against you saintly innocent men.

    Life is hard all over, I get it, right.

    I just really feel for you and all of your terrible pain that keeps you coming here day after day, night after night, crying out to the gods for justice.
