[MD] A time for Nihilism...

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Arlo previously]
Pagan views of the feminine typically revolve around three centers or 
archetypes; mother, maiden, whore, crone.

[Marsha]
That's maiden, mother & crone.  Don't know where the 'whore' came 
from.  And, by the way, I am a young crone.

[Arlo]
A number of sources of I have cite "whore" in this list of 
archetypes. Of course, "whore" simply means "sexually alive" while 
"maiden" denotes vestigal innocence. Remember that as Christianity 
cleansed the world of paganism, "whore" was applied to any woman who 
engages in sex to someone who is not her husband. Can you think of a 
male-similar word? Other than "stud"? Paganism did not think of "sex" 
as evil, vile or dirty. Remember the Dionysians. Sex was Holy. It was 
the Christians who came along and said "you bad, bad dirty little whore"....
