". . . but no problem with Spaw using the term 'whiteboy'...a bit like accepting your friends who make racist jokes at the pub, I suppose..."

Trying to divert flak from your own racist outpourings by jumping on the "whiteboy" comment, are you, David? No joy there, I'm afraid. I believe Spaw was quoting from someone else, and in all the time I've been here on Mudcat (since 1999), I've never read anything posted by Spaw that indicates that he is, in any way, racist. Nor have I ever seen a racist post from Mr. Beard.

So your attempt at a diversionary tactic is a total bust.

David, stop trying to derive guidance in life by rereading your own "life's work." You're in a philosophical "feedback loop." Put that aside and start from the beginning. Re-examine your beliefs and philosophy from the very basics. You've taken a wrong turn somewhere and your positions are untenable.
