The Persuaders

It seems there is always someone here trying to convince me of something or other, and it’s always for my own good that I need to listen to them. Some are on a mission to save the whole of Mankind from imminent peril, while others, not being quite so ambitious, only see it as their job to halt the decline of Western Society.

As far as the future of Mankind is concerned, I am being warned from all sides; stop using disposable plastic bags and accept the Lord God as your redeemer. Well I’m doing my bit with the bags, but my heart’s not really in the other thing.

So what about Western Society? How can I stop that from going over the cliff edge? I need to adopt a right wing attitude towards politics. Yes, I need to develop a severe intolerance towards a great many things that don’t currently cause me any concern.

The insidious crusade by some women to be treated as fully paid up Human Beings needs condemning, to start with. As does homosexuality; I must disapprove of it whenever an opportunity presents itself. I live in a society where the average household owns at least two cars, yet hardly any owns a gun. That can’t be right. I need to get it into my head that every Muslim I see on the street wants to blow up me and my family, and I must treat them accordingly, lest the possibility of us living in harmony should ever materialise.

If we want to live in a World fit for decent, God fearing, upstanding, right thinking people, we need to listen to the persuaders. Although when I try to imagine what it would be like to live in such a World, the thought of being blown up by a Muslim doesn’t seem quite so bad.
