SURVEY

Combining male and female elements is no new idea. The recently unearthed Gospel of St. Thomas, published by Harpers from an ancient Coptic manuscript, repeatedly has Jesus saying that only those "who make the two one," who become both male and female, shall enter the Kingdom. In the concluding verses, Peter demands that Mary leave the group, "because women are not worthy of the Life. Jesus said: See, I shall lead her, so that I will make her male. For every woman who makes herself male will enter the Kingdom of Heaven." This idea that there are no sexes in the Kingdom has considerable support in the canonical books of the Bible.

Seems to be a current rash of raids of physique photographers and publishers. Federal agents grabbed mailing list of a publisher in Wash DC, but courts ordered lists returned, said they could not properly be seized . . .

The MID-TOWN JOURNAL (a Boston paper with the "My Sin" odor) recently gleefully described the arrest by vicecops of an apartment resident and a "husky appearing male" who was in the room with him. The account disclosed no evidence that any illegal act had been committted (the Journal snottily referred to this as "only [the victim's] personal and biased opinion') but the two were arrested, and fined by a court which seemed to base its guilty verdict chiefly on a judgment of the allegedly "soprano" quality of the defendant's voice when he said he had taken the apartment to entertain "girls." The victim was quoted as arguing that his civil liberties were being violated, and that he was a member of ONE. (He is not.)
