Karen Armstrong
Karen Armstrong has written a number of fantastic books contributing to historical knowledge since quitting her day job as a nun. In the eyes of some it has been suggested that she should be held as queen of all historical knowledge and a statue be put up in her honour. But to be honest I think the only place that woman belongs is in my knickers, and i've more than beaten them to the statue idea.

Things I'd like to do to Karen Armstrong
I'd like to make love to her and hear her shout passages from the Bible in delight. I want to tie her up with a convent rope and see her break her vows repeatedly. I want to take her to a farm and watch her seperate the sheep from the goats. I want her to turn the other cheek. I want to tie her up and punish her for her sins. I want her to show me her Garden of Gethsename. While we are mating (outside of marriage), I want her to utter the legendary quote:
"There would be Peace of God in the west and War of God in the east - a perfect solution to the problems of Europe!"
OH YES!
