So you're a plasterer and you're plastering. There's a kind of symmetry in that, somehow.

When it's done well, yes I agree. I used to work for a builder and had to do odd bits of plastering, now and again. I could never get it right and used to admire proper plasterers.

I was recently taken to task for disrespecting the Bible but no one seems to have any problem with belittling the skills of the working man. It's an upside down world and I despair.

Not sure I understand the moral equivalence. I think I read where Pedro draws disability payments. Over here the average working man don't do that. But I enjoy your humor so don't take offense.

Well that's even more impressive. Plastering isn't easy and to be disabled and still make a good job of it deserves respect.
