Bop for Peace!

God bless their little sex-addled hearts.

CBS/AP) SAN FRANCISCO Two peace activists have planned a massive anti-war demonstration for the first day of winter.

But they don’t want you marching in the streets. They’d much rather you just stay home.

The Global Orgasm for Peace was conceived by Donna Sheehan, 76, and Paul Reffell, 55, whose immodest goal is for everyone in the world to have an orgasm Dec. 22 while focusing on world peace.

Wait. 76 and 55?

This can’t end well. It just can’t.

BUt I suppose the question here why is meditating on peace while getting our collective groove on supposed to help?

You may think that’s a silly question but believe me, pondering that is preferable to getting the idea of a 76 year-old orgasm stuck in your brain.

“The orgasm gives out an incredible feeling of peace during it and after it,” Reffell said Sunday. “Your mind is like a blank. It’s like a meditative state. And mass meditations have been shown to make a change.”

There’s no way to tackle this delicately, is there? Okey, let’s just forge ahead.

See, I don’t know about you folks (and with rare exceptions, I don’t want to know about you folks!), but my orgasms are probably not best described as bringing a “feeling of peace” or any sort of “blank”. I do not feel “meditative” afterwards unless by “meditative” you mean “sort of sleepy”.

My experience with other orgasmic experiences, mine and others, is not particularly broad. I can say, though, that precious few of them have included the Zen-like trance into which Reffell believes we all slip.

My own guess is that if you feel meditative after an orgasm, you’ve either done something horribly wrong or you’re so self-obsessed that your partner ought to kick you out of bed. I would think the appropriate reaction to an orgasm is “more!” instead of “Hmm….how about some of that world peace, huh?”.

That’s just me. What do I know? I haven’t studied evolutionary psychology nor am I an anti-war activist. Maybe I’m wrong about this.

Volunteers, perhaps, would be helpful.

    A student of Zen enters the room of his master, who is deep in meditation. The student interupts and asks:
    “What are you doing?”
    “I am thinking.” the master replies.
    “What are you thinking about?”
    “I am thinking about not thinking.”
    “How does one think about not thinking?”
    “Without thinking.”

    That may not help, but what the woman is talking about is the Zen state of “no-mind.” It is not a trance, nor is your mind necessarily blank. You simply have no active thoughts. Your mind is not cluttered with thoughts of the bills that are due, how big the federal deficit is, what you did at work today, or what your dog did to the couch. Your mind is in a passive state. It actually takes a fair amount of practice to achieve this state. Most people never really achieve it. The closest they come is the fleeting seconds after orgasm when they are free of life’s worries. So, what she is saying is not entirely unreasonable. The problem, of course, is that world peace is also one of those things about which you are not thinking. So in that sense, it seems pretty silly.

    What effect will this have? Probably the same as prayer, which is no direct effect at all. But it will be more fun.
