I'd usually groan "Oh no! Not yet another smart-ass who tries to shock!" at pieces of this character. But this one was well executed: I didn't expect what was coming (no pun intended) and at first thought the pun "well hung" was about as far as it would go before making some generic critique of religion. But it had surprising twists all through (voltas?), and had this old heathen read through with a dropped jaw. Quite a unique event.

But I worry about a technicality: Can AbleMuse/Eratosphere be charged with blasphemy for making this available on the Internet without barring UK addresses?
