the hogs out there. or flock Of goats, or
flock of sheep, or a herd of cattle. and
if there is no male on the place, he sees
them send out periodically to bring in a
male. Do you suppose there ever was a
boy or girl that did not grow UP with
the idea generally. as to how sex repro

don't We all know how we are made up
physically? Don't we know the necessities
of human nature? Don't We all know those
daily necessities which we term calls of ma
ture, that put us right on the footing with
the animal creation? We cannot escape it.
The most beautiful woman that ever came

our minds and never speak of?
The defendant argued that, the Roman
Catholic priests are reaching out here and
there borrowing from Pagan religions, and
getting further and further away from
Jesus Christ, and getting further and
further away from the simplicity of the
Primitive church.

half-a-dozen words he could have used.
But if he meant to-wanted to-be deli

world at the risk OF her own life.
The priests OF this Phallic religion

the head of the priest went through, it
represented the act Of fertilizing the womb
Now, that's delicate word the fertliza-

They ask us to believe that their red faces
and thick lips mean nothing, and that they

The point is, to emphasize their igno-

yourselves with, is this: how could that
language possibly excite the animal appe-
