It was a hot day in July, a Saturday afternoon, and Kim James was bored. Her older sisters had taken her to a church event in their small hometown in Indiana, where the girls were spending their summer. Her parents were back in Bangladesh, working at the remote Baptist missionary compound where the family had lived, on and off, for five years. For an adventurous and high-spirited 13-year-old like Kim, Indiana seemed dull compared to Bangladesh. She missed her friends, the dozen or so missionary kids everybody called “MKs.” She missed the menagerie her parents let her keep: goats, cows, a parrot, a monkey. She missed the jackals that called in the distance at night, and the elephants that sometimes crashed through the compound fence.

Remote Viewing the Year 2060

As a woman, with all the cases of sexual abuse of girls and women being exposed in the news, it’s hard to fathom what seems like an abnormal amount of anger and or a desire to keep women and girls in their place.

Jews talk about it, you just aren’t paying attention.
“A Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old” (Sanhedrin 54b).
“When a grown-up man has intercourse with a little girl it is nothing”
(Kethuboth 11b).
“A woman who had intercourse with a beast is eligible to marry a Jewish priest. A woman who has sex with a demon is also eligible to marry a Jewish priest” (Yebamoth 59b).
“All gentile children are animals”
(Yebamoth 98a).
