I want to re-re-remind net contributors about the misuse
of titles.
Although I am honored by the title Reverend prepended to
my name "Bob" ( though Rev is meant derisively by the
caller), it is improper and offensive to do that.
I am not a Reverend.
Back when Yiri BenDavid was:
a) Nailing that red-neck, Christian, jackass Bob Brown
to the wall.
OR
b) scandalously abusing me with vilifications and half-truth.
(a or b above depends on your point of view of course)
one of the sneers he employed was "Rev. Bob".
He published an apology for that after he was chided privately
by other Jews thru the mail.
** I might note that other self identified Jews picked up the
"Rev Bob" sneer and NO ONE attacked that behavior publicly.**
If you remember history, Mr Hitler's party members used to
while away their free time back in the late '20s abusing
identifiable Jews and especially Rabbis. My point is that
the Holocaust starts in behavior like that and our latest
misuser of titles, Mr Bill Peter ought to realize the hate
filled potential of his sneer at Reverend Bob.
Hey Bill Peter - feel free to vilify ME - please don't attack
a symbol of Christianity. It's kind of like killing a fly with
a nine pound hammer. Tacky Tacky.
