Leaving People Out Of Our Disdain

ONE CAN SCARCELY IMAGINE what on earth might motivate a group of folks in Dallas, Texas, to produce an event consisting of a contest to draw the prophet Mohammed. They did it to make a point, right? Some, um...point? The point should be obvious, one would think, but, strangely, to me, it isn't. We don't have to acquiesce to this damned political correctness of respecting other religions, or something like that. If we don't like Islam, we can say so anytime we want! Or some point like that, or something. Hell, who knows...descriptions of Pam Geller describe her as "anti-Islamic", which brings to mind the question "what's the point"? Its like anti-black bias or anti-Texas bias or what not - why leave anybody out? Why not inculcate a good, simple, across the board, misanthropicism? In other words: hell, hate everybody! The fact that Pam Geller turns out to be gorgeous enhances my wish that whe would drop all the anti-Islamic nonsense, and pay a whole lot more attention to me. Like that'll ever happen. Confronted with logical refutation of their most cherished beliefs, people simply dig in, harden their resolve to persist in error, and they do not tend to start paying attention to me. Oh well. Alas, we dwell in a world of superstition and error, a world in which people believe God speaks to us in books which claim the world is flat, and motionless. Whatever Pam's problem is, she'll have to work it out by herself.
