100%. One of the reasons I agree is because it irritates the shit out of me that a bs word/"spin"/metaphor game is being played with the whole idea.

"Purity" is a state that a substance can be in where it is not mixed with any other substance. I supposed it could also be some kind of energy as well, and not just matter ie: "I was exposed to pure gamma radiation (nothing ese) which made me turn into the Hulk."

A human body is far far to complex and variated to be "pure" anything, ever.

People use "pure" when they talk about kids or clergy or mystics or something to reference the absence or "non-mixing" of knowledge, ideas, and experience. They're fucking around and trying to conflate social engineering, grooming/education, and thought control with something only applicable in chemistry and physics. It's stupid, imperious, and chickenshit.
