Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Amergin Date: 14 Apr 08 - 08:15 PM Peace, I do not believe I need to start an apology thread...I think women owe me an apology for all the times they slapped me, bopped me upside the head, kicked me between my legs...and whatnot....just for opening my mouth...I swear....I just open my mouth and the hands start flying...have no idea why. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 14 Apr 08 - 12:11 AM it amused me, too. As for lurking, how could anybody know if there are people who come and never post? Frankly, I doubt it. People would either want to join in the social life of the Mudcat or they would go elsewhere. As for Bobert, when you've been on the Mudcat a while, you come to know people. Bobert is clearly a decent sort, intelligent and observant, even if he can't spell. He would be a good person to be stranded on a desert island with. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: GUEST,lox Date: 13 Apr 08 - 05:05 PM Some tight jeans could be used as a form of contraception. By the time you manage to get them off you're fed up and can't be bothered. Peace ... classy! Bobert ... you're a nice guy and we know it ... don't worry. |

From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 13 Apr 08 - 03:28 PM Their prayers were answered and his daughter came to agree, that the kind of of girls who wore tight jeans were exactly the kind with loose morals. It's not the wearing of tight jeans that promotes loose morals, it's the removing of them. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Big Al Whittle Date: 13 Apr 08 - 02:22 PM Not every well scrubbed young American who comes knocking on your door, asking you if you're worried about the state of the world is a Mormon, But every one so far has been. The Jehovah's Witnesses tend to send middle aged ladies who want to sell you a copy of The Watchtower, which I generally buy out of politeness and compassion for a fellow human. I'm a folksinger, I know what it is to be trapped into a pattern of stupid compulsive behaviour. I remember one article was about someone worried cos his daughter wore tight jeans. The rotten sod discussed it with his daughter, and together they prayed for guidance on the matter. Their prayers were answered and his daughter came to agree, that the kind of of girls who wore tight jeans were exactly the kind with loose morals. Just thought you might value that tip from the almighty. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Peace Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:46 PM And you'll be starting your apology thread when, Amergin? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Amergin Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:45 PM I have no idea why some fellows would go for polygamy.....isn't one wife bad enough? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Liz the Squeak Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:43 PM Anyone can be polygamous.... it's just that in many places the second and subsequent wives are not recognised in law. And if we're to take the stance of certain 'Christian' groups that divorce is illegal then an awful lot of people could be polygamous. Equally, there are Mormons and Muslems who are monogamous... it's not a cut and dried argument. LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Peace Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:34 PM Polygamy in Canada. I would point out to all that being Mormon does not equate to being a polygamist or engaging in polygamist practises. I hope that distinction is clear to people. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Big Al Whittle Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:27 PM how's this brainwashing thing work then....? You could have a great Mormon theme party. You could wear funny undergarments. An Osmonds karaoke. A Skittle alley called Shoot Gary Gilmore. A game of charades....we try and guess what you've been brainwashed to do. On behalf of all the women I've ever met, I accept your apology. I hope this makes you feel better. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Emma B Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:18 PM I don't 'need' an apology either meself which makes it all the more welcome when such a gracious and public one is offered. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Bobert Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:15 PM There really isn't one smoking gun post, myself... It was just some reflections on "rounding folks up" in general without having the full story about the "culture" that was promoted within the compound... As for you Dusan??? Easy to shoot at folks from behind that GUEST label... I don't mind GUESTs at all until theu become cowardly snipers... Have a nice day, pal... B~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: meself Date: 13 Apr 08 - 01:03 PM No need to apologize to me - nor, I should think, to the possibly many Mudcatters who have not even looked at the thread in question. I skimmed it a few times as it progressed; I must have missed the offending comment, and I'm not going to go back and search it out ... All I picked up was Bobert expressing some hesitation to join in with the prevailing sentiment; nothing wrong with that. As I say, I seem to have missed something - but I certainly don't need an apology. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Peace Date: 13 Apr 08 - 12:55 PM I disagree with that assessment of Bobert by Dusan the Lurker. And I find it very distasteful that that kind of remark would be posted under a new guest name. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: GUEST,Dusan the Lurker Date: 13 Apr 08 - 12:42 PM Time to step out of the shadows. Why just the apology to women? As a guy put off by your remarks too, I'd say it was a mean spirited, bigoted thing to say. But I'm a cynic, so I can't say I'm shocked to see it, coming from a guy with a legacy of making demeaning remarks about 'womenz' for as many years as I've come and gone around here. Sure, apology accepted. Whatever. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: open mike Date: 13 Apr 08 - 12:12 PM they are really singing the blues right now in "Yearn For Zion"...YFZ the wiminns and the chilluns and the guys too. of course they will say that the "outside" society is bad for busting up their little party...and hopefully they will see the light. some have escaped to "safety" I hope and pray others will, too. If the mothers are with the children, they will probably keep up the facade of their "truth" they have been taught. if you want to read a fiction novel which includes some scenarios from a similar community, see Hard Truth By Nevada Barr. |

Subject: RE: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Emma B Date: 13 Apr 08 - 11:12 AM I agree, there is a great deal too much misinformation in the world bobert I can understand your initial disbelief that such a thing could be happening under the guise of tolerance for the rights of people to practice the religion or lifestyle of their choice. Your apology is gracefully and gratefully accepted by this mudwomanz Thanks |

Subject: BS: An Apology to All Mudwomenz... From: Bobert Date: 13 Apr 08 - 10:40 AM I apologize to each and every woman here at Mud Cat for a comment that I made on the the Texas polygamist thread... I was misinformed and didn't know that the girls were brainwashed into thinking it was their duty to have sex with the older men in the sect... I could never condone such a behavior and I should have learned more before saying anything at all... I am sorry... Bobert |
