In my piece below on why a white male might not like women, I committed the ultimate blasphemy of our established religion, political correctness.

Women, even though they are the majority, are an officially designated and protected Minority Group in PC doctrine. Just as a Jew or a black can denounce whites when he is feeling frustrated with them, a woman is encouraged to say, “I hate men” when she is feeling frustrated.

A man who says he sometimes hates women or blacks or Jews or Australian Bushman is instantly and eternally condemned to the flames of Hitlerism.

Instead of giving me all the reservations she is supposed to be obsessed with, Elizabeth just said she agreed. A healthy-minded white man sometimes just doesn’t LIKE women. A healthy-minded white woman sometimes just doesn’t LIKE women.

But I like to think that only a Bob’s Blogger would say that without reservation.

My entry below, “Peter Appeals to a Higher Court” was a humorous piece which included some bragging about my older sister, who is a thoroughly, Steel Magnolia type of sweet Southern lady.

Mark took it seriously and vowed to abandon me forever. He says:

‘This entry has made me quite ill and I’m not kidding in the least.
Bob, but I thought you wanted a real exchange of ideas, not the slobberings of a yes man who licks your boots and tells you you are god. This is my last entry in your blog which I’m sure will not bother you in the least but it will make my day. I’ll seek out those with balls enough to actuallly do something more than pontificate for the white race instead of sit out honey for class pet lap dogs. ”

Comment by Mark —

I STILL can’t understand what he is talking about, and I hope he, like Bob, can just admit he did something silly and go on.

Man is the only animal who laughs. He is also the only animal that knows he will die.

This is not a coincidence. Humor is survival. So real humor always hits at touchy areas, like the King’s Fool.

Humor hits very close to the bone, and I am not sure what nerve I touched in Mark. It was certainly not one htat was in my mind.

If Makr is the man I think he is, he will simply say he flew off the handle.

But if Mark has abandoned me forever, it is better thus.

I have warned you, from costly experience, that you should NEVER deal with anybody who uses the words “Lie” and “Liar” freely.

Let me warn you also never to deal with anyone who goes instantly from friend to foe because of one misstep.

That is why I get wary when someone quotes the Bible too much. he is likely one day to find some phrase in that million-word-long scripture which you have violated and declare you a False Prophet. It is only a matter of time.

I deal with loudly proclaiming Old Testament Christians in exactly the same way that I deal with Jews or other minority groups. At arm’s length.

I can work with Jews or blacks, but I always keep in mind that they can turn on me in an instant. They can be allies, but never comrades. The same is true of people who think they own The Book.

Any Book. The Bible is just one of them.

Hence Wordism.

Once I said somethig wrong and a female friend, not a girlfriend, said, “I used to like you but now I realize how bad you are.”

My reply was, “If your friendship is so easily lost, I would rather not be burdened with it.”

You should treat a person who can turn on you in one statement in exactly the same way you should deal with a grenade with the pin pulled. You have to dispose of it while keeping your thumb firmly down on the fuse.

Like a live grenade, the best place for a so-called “Friend” who will turn on you in one statement is in the camp of your enemies. He will blow up there and take some of THEM with him.
