This is just for clarity.

Jesus interpreted means \"The One Who Saves\"
Christ interpreted means \"The Anointed One\" same as Messiah does.

Correctly interpreted his name is thus :

\"The Anointed One Who Saves.\"

No big deal, just figured I'd throw that in.

We need to establish that anyone can say NO at any time. That's good. And that, whatever raging hormones you have going on, When someone lets you know they want you to stop, you stop. Right then.
I agree Kilarin. But using this dumb 16 year old kid to get it done is downright evil.

Question her motives, and deny that the case fits a coercion scenario... Fine, you can certainly believe what you want.
This also fits the \"Oh crap I just had sex with 2 minors and I better cover my butt before somebody finds out\" scenario.

The first trial ended up as a mistrial. It got picked up by the media and the political war started. Also, like many others have said in this thread, 5 seconds is a pretty immediate withdrawal. To make a decision in 5 seconds is fast and in any other instance would be called impetuous.

I see your point. Mine is only that the kid did not deserve a sentence for this. Considering the merits of this case, charging him with rape and sentencing him to 5 years takes a very liberal assumption of the facts. she herself did not seem to consider it rape until talking to an adult afterwards.
