Teenage Baptisms for the Dead

Post by _zeezrom »

This subject has been discussed a number of times on this board but never have we been delighted with imagery that perfectly describes the types of thoughts running through a young man's head during baptisms for the dead with his youth group.

Please don't get me wrong. It is not true that every boy is thinking about nude bodies while waiting their turn to baptize. Rather, they are working hard to forget about bodies.

I am sorry. You should have put the black blocks, because of me...

As a four (or four and half) year old, I hadn't any problem with clothing of ballet dancers.
Mormonism was unknown here, then.

I used to see my parents naked - and there were no nudism, only in the bathroom environment.

Last but not least, I've got a cold during my baptism. Forever...

I have a feeling you are going to start seeing lots more black blocks around here.

Maybe I can become the new resident black blocker.

How'd i do? I'm pretty sure bums don't get the block.

IT WAS'New Testament ENOUGH...

I've censored it for Your over-sensitive eyes.

The original caricature can be shown here.

by the way
I was banned two weeks because of breasts and/or genitals.

I touched your celestial thread... I'm blushing a little.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

It is the meaning of the THREAD, not the image. Therefore, I referred you to the thread itself.

One of my greatest experiences as a woman. :smile:

I feel kind of dirty, defiling a perfectly good painting like I did.
