you're suggesting that because people would wish to do each other harm they'd rape someone purely to cause them harm, even though in raping them, removing the element of lust, the only pleasure they'd gain in causing pain? - i disagree. i believe most rapists are driven by lust and in taking that away, as you'd hate to much to lust for someone, most people would simply kill the victim. I have no idea whether rapists enjoy their crimes, but I am saying, yes, that the enjoyment comes from causing pain as much as it does from any pleasure they get from the act. No, rape is a crime motivated by hate not by lust. To suggest otherwise is actually kinda dangerous. It's actually both; many rapists are known to be acting out a sexual fantasy when raping people. Likewise, rape can be and is used as a tool for inflicting physical and psychological pain. I agree with H though; t'isn't a pleasant subject!

Roman - tyrannic and barbarous empire. destroyer of more culture than it spread, whose lasting legacy to the west, is to distrust and fear all those not like us. That's not fair Morton. And the second sentence is not true - Rome could teach us a lot about religious toleration, in the pre-Christian period... it was a very accommodating ethos that they had. ah they were small minded barbarians. how many cultures and peoples did they wipe out? how many innocent gauls, dacians and all manner of people did they slaughter? ... and there tolerance ran to "if you worship our gods with yours, you're ok" - not really tolerance! now the persian empire....... there was tolerance!

So do you guys like my new avatar then? We can't see it! Hence the obvious reaction was to talk about ancient civilisations and the nature of hate crimes! Getting lunch, brb
