    I don’t know if that big dyke Lilith was a Whore or not, but she was certainly too
     sexually aggro for Adam and God’s liking:
    Hebraic tradition said Adam married Lilith because he grew tired of coupling with
     beasts, a common custom of Middle-Eastern herdsmen, though the Old Testament declared
     it a sin (Deuteronomy 27:21). Adam tried to force Lilith to lie beneath him in the
     “missionary position” favored by male-dominant societies. Moslems were so insistent
     on the male-superior sexual position that they said, “Accursed be the man who maketh
     women heaven and himself earth.” Catholic authorities said any sexual position other
     than the male-superior one is sinful. But Lilith was neither a Moslem nor a Catholic.
     She sneered at Adam’s sexual crudity, cursed him, and flew away to make her home by
     the Red Sea.
    God sent angels to fetch Lilith back, but she cursed them too, ignored God’s command,
     and spent her time coupling with “demons” (whose lovemaking evidently pleased her
     better) and giving birth to a hundred children every day. So God had to produce Eve
     as Lilith’s more docile replacement.... The story of Lilith disappeared from the canonical
     Bible, but her daughters the lilim haunted men for over a thousand years. Well into the Middle Ages, the Jews were still
     manufacturing amulets to keep away the lilim , who were lustful she-demons given to copulating with men in their dreams, causing
     nocturnal emissions. Naturally, the lilim squatted on top of their victims in the position favored by ancient matriarchs. (Walker,
     1983, 541-42)
    The lilim that haunted men in their dreams were manifestations of a growing terror of female
     sexuality. In our society, this fear has gone past fruition and is presently rotting.
     
    I feel pretty cheated about Whores for a number of reasons:
Whores generally subsist within men’s domain, under conditions men have formulated
     for the past odd thousand years, and are largely inaccessible to women.
Most Whores are completely unaware of how important they are to society, and subsequently
     do not have the opportunity to learn how to be all-compassionate, all-loving, all-giving
     and all-receiving incarnations of the Goddess.
I’ve never been with a Whore because any Whore who knows she’s one of the Goddess’s
     priestesses would cost my entire disposable income for six months.
    I do, however, have a frame of reference because I know what it is like to be in the
     arms of the Goddess.

    One time I got blessed by this Goddess incarnation named Ammachi. She’s not a Whore,
     but she’s by far the closest personification of an olden time sacred temple priestess
     I’ve ever personally encountered.
    Ammachi is a woman from India who comes to America and has these ashram things. The
     first time I went to her ashram thing, I had no idea what it was about. I saw a bunch
     of mostly white people dressed in white clothes who bugged me with their “Oh, I am
     so very holy and drink herbal tea constantly” vibration.
    But the music was amazing.
    Ammachi sat in the front of the room on a bunch of pillows. Musicians, attendants,
     children and flowers surrounded her. Thousands of flowers, like when Princess Diana
     died. She sat there with her eyes closed, and chanted. Probably, she was meditating.
     Wearing a flowing white sari, she was covered with chiffon, silk, everything soft
     and whispery. I figured she understood the concept of an ashram far better than I,
     so I did the same as her. Closed my eyes, sat and listened.
    This lasted a long time, but like in a dream, I don’t know how many minutes and hours
     passed.
    Then there were the rustling sounds of people standing up. I opened my eyes. Everyone
     was forming a double-file line that led to Ammachi.
    My friends told me she was gonna bless people, so we queued up. The line was very,
     very long, snaking throughout the entire large building we were in. If it had been
     a line at the
