A more heartwarming coda to 2005 could not be imagined than the spate
of year-end cable news recaps exploring what they claimed was the
most remarkable trend of the past year: female teachers arrested for
having sex with underage teen male high- and middle-school students.
Not only deliciously lurid, these tales were also, happily, bereft of
the violence and despair that usually prevents Wit
Memo from wringing the utmost enjoyment from most cable new
fare.
The most pleasantly surprising aspect of this supposed trend was
the teachers. The seductress educators are not, as expected, unappealing misfits who'd abandoned hope of garnering manly attention through normal channels. To the contrary,
based on the photos shown on TV, these women are predominantly
blond and attractive. In particular, Debra Lafave, the Florida teacher
whose no-jail plea bargain was recently rejected by the judge, is, by any
reasonable standard, quite hot.
None of the cable hotshots could explain this phenomenon. Their game
posturing yielded no credible reasons why sexy young women with no lack of attention from real-world adult males would risk jail
time, public humiliation and the end of careers and marriages for a few
moments of illicit lust with inexperienced, bumbling adolescents.
Wit Memo has hit upon the only explanation,
the one the talking heads missed.
The reason these alluring women behaved in a manner not expected of
rational people is that they're not people at all.
They're angels.
These women are angels sent by God, sent by a just and merciful God
as divine rewards for a few very special teen boys who have shown
themselves worthy of His favors, for reasons that only God, in the mystery
of His infinite wisdom, can understand. No other explanation makes sense.
Skeptical? Don't believe in angels? Neither did we, till we googled
"angels are real." Turns out, angels
ARE real, and constantly intervene
in human events at critical times. According to experts, what do
angels do? Of course, they save lives. But they also make dreams
come true. And what does a straight teen boy dream about,
more than anything else? 'Nuff said!
And don't let anyone tell you that angels can't be luscious, hot-to-trot
women, either. Why, not too long ago on TV we saw a bevy of tall knockouts
in skimpy underwear parading up and down a runway . . . and they
were wearing angel wings! And it's not just in Christianity that angels are sexy. We've
all heard that martyrs to Islam, upon arrival in heaven, receive the attention
of 70 beautiful female virgins, or, as we call 'em, ji-hotties.
We shouldn't expect any different from a religion in which the son of
God was known to consort with a consort.
Obviously, this reality is problematic for heathens like Wit
Memo, for there can be no God-sent sex bombs if there's no
God to send them. And it's this inescapable conclusion, more than the imprecations
of a million preachers in their pulpits, more than hectoring of a million
missionaries knocking on a million Wit Memo doors,
that has caused us to rethink our scepticism. For at a time when some claim
to see God's hand in scientific phenomena and election results, it behooves
us all to consider carefully those events for which divine intervention
is not simply one, but the only, sensible explanation.
For just as a logician can from a drop of water deduce an Atlantic or
a Niagra, to quote Sherlock Holmes, so can Wit
Memo, from the sight of Debra Lafave's curvy lips and her pulse-quickening
bosom busy under her flimsy red sweater, deduce the presence of the Holy,
the presence of a Supreme Being who's finally, at long last, proven Himself
to be one heck of an intelligent designer.
