...wouldn't dream of evaluating the sincerity of Smut Dealer Larry Flynt's conversion to being a Hustler for the Lord [Dec. 5]. But if Flynt has truly become a devotee of the "Big Boy upstairs," all I can say is that there must be some truth in the saying "miracles never cease...

"We will no longer treat women as pieces of meat." Specifically, Flynt plans to discontinue vaginal closeups, banish all flesh from the cover and sanitize a few regular features: "Asshole of the Month" will become "Turkey of the Month," for instance, and "Chester the Molester" will be renamed "Chester the Protector...
