Oh I certainly think we can get this little slut nice and miserable! We’ll see you in a few minutes my dear!” I have spent much of my adult life and intellectual development reacting against Reformed thought. Process theology is almost diametrically opposed (though interesting touchstones have recently developed). When I have read Edwards and Calvin (stars of this book), I have been drawn to some of the same things that Lane is drawn to. Edwards has much to say about beauty and pleasure once you look past his awful statements about God. I did find elements of Calvin's delight in nature in my own reading of him, but Lane will have awakened me to more. So on and so forth, the elites casually mentioned the various horrors they had planned for the captive. Hanna frantically cried protests, but usually got at best laughs, or at worst threats.

Hanna’s hands were shaking as she unzipped her skin tight spandex suit and began pulling it off. As she pulled it down her body the goons began to laugh.Can you just hear that? A muscular ass just sounds different than a normal one. Those of you who like working over your slaves with flogs, whips, or canes DO NOT want to miss out on this ass.” Now listen here bitch, we are going to untie you, and you are going to be a good little slut and do what you are told, or else….” Oh yea your owner loves smell torture, I’m pretty sure you will literally never get to smell fresh air again. Sorry, guess we should have warned you to savor those last few minutes of it.”

The bidding soon started, Hanna’s blue eyes darted around the room as voices spoke up from the crowd. The dollar amount kept jumping up, soon there was a bidding war as the sadists seemed to agree with the auctioneer that they did not want to miss out on this particular victim I still find elements of Lane's God very troubling. Reformed theology fails, for me, most clearly at the point of theodicy. I recently blogged about this here: http://escottjones.typepad.com/myques... At the end of the book Lane envisions that all theologies and faiths must work to renew theologies of ecological vision. He is looking for partners and touchstones, and this could become a touchstone for dialogue between Process and Reformed thought. The auctioneer whispered the last sentence so only Hanna could hear him, eliciting a terrified whimper from the miserable girl.

Hanna’s face hurt from how tightly the man was gripping it while discussing her beauty. It was hardly the only thing hurting on the poor woman though, her tight spandex bodysuit provided no real protection from the viciously tight ropes that were squeezing her all over. The Ravishing Beauties first played at Club Zoo in Liverpool and followed this with the support tour with The Teardrop Explodes. Virginia wrote most of the band's songs, some of which appeared on her first solo project with Why-Fi. The band was short lived, with St. John first becoming a model and then eventually a member of The Dream Academy, while Holland did session work and joined Tears for Fears.
