re: #338 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))
I read a book by a retired Anglican Bishop that made a convincing point that St. Paul was a repressed, self-loathing homosexual.
St. Augustine was hetero, but also terribly repressed and traumatized by his father calling attention to his boner in the public baths an a ten-year-old.
These are jut some of the Fathers of the Church who laid the foundation for centuries of neuroses and repression, both social and psychological.
I could certainly see that about St. Paul (no offense to any Lizards here), but I’m not too familiar with St. Augustine’s background.
