Janesta and those that share her point of view [all or in part],
Thank you for your comments.
It would miraculous and surprising if everyone one participating in an online or
other forum agreed with or was pleased by everything everyone else wrote.
If I have read the many thousands of Vision 2020 posts and responses correctly,
many participants express a great variety of responses to other postings:
various nuances of agreement, anger, disgust, helplessness, amusement, shock,
befuddlement, cluelessness, etc. are evident. This is to be expected in an
open, public forum in a community with a wide variety of outlooks, manners of
expression, talents, subjects of interest, and gradients of education and
knowledge. Also to be considered: although many claim to, observations lead
one to believe that no one person or organization owns the truth -- the universe
is too complicated to be understood by a single person or group.
While Dan Carscallen and I do not always agree, I appreciate his terse humor. I
appreciate Sunil's polite, incisive, persistent commentary, and Saundra Lund's,
Rose Huskey's, and Joan Opyr's brisk, cutting irony, sarcasm, and willingness to
research facts. Although I seldom agreed with Dale Courtney, I respected his
willingness to present statistics and graphs to argue his point of view. I
appreciate Tom Hansen's sometimes emotional postings and labor intensive, caring
allied website. I don't always agree with Tim Lohrman, but I try to see exactly
where he is coming from and learn from it. LuJane and I have quite different
worldviews. The list could go on and on.
Each individual has their own point of view and preferences.
Similarly, when presenting a point of view, a writer has his choice of many
different literary devices. Depending on the circumstances, subject, stimulus,
and objectives, a writer attempts to choose, perhaps in error, the most
effective devices to reach their goals.
You find the device I used in the post at issue to be tasteless and
objectionable. There is no doubt that it is quite graphic parody -- a device
sometimes used by other Vision 2020 posters and surprise: millions of other
writers. Depending on their point of view and life's experience, some readers
might find such graphic parody extreme. Those that participate in national
on-line forums and/or frequently read OP-ED pages probably would not find it so.
I purposely changed the title of the thread at issue so as to warn potential
readers. When seeing the title "Inspirational Story of the Cult Master's
Testicles," the timid should guess that the content would not be as tame or as
civil as would the content expected in a post entitled "High Tea at Good
Samaritan Village." Delete keys have their uses.
I hope that most of us can agree that free expression of ideas and the way
chosen to express those ideas is one of the most important, fundamental elements
of an open, secular society. Just as you are free to say what you wish and how
to say it, others are also. That is what makes us free.
Each of us must choose which of our ever-evolving opinions to express and how to
express them to reach certain goals. It would be an exercise in extreme egotism
to think that one's writings would have a desirable, persuasive, positive effect
on all members of the reading audience. I entertain no such hopes. In fact, I
would be happy for a 5% positive response; perhaps even that is too high.
Thank you again for your feedback. Your (or anyone else's) censorious use of
the delete key for any of my future posts would certainly be understandable and
not at all objectionable. However, please consider allowing each individual the
freedom to decide what to do with any particular posting -- each can invoke
their own censor without help from the rest of us.
Respectfully,
Wayne

While I find little to concur with these days regarding Mr. Wilson, and what
he espouses, and I do consider myself "normal". I find this exercise in writing
to be in very poor taste for this forum. It shows a real lack of dignity and
class on your part, Mr. Fox. I fail to see the humor in it. Am I alone in
feeling this way?

Response to Saundra Lund
Saundra (and other Normal Folks),
Thank you for your Vision 2020 reposting, appropriately on Sunday, of some
of Moscow, Idaho Christ Church Cult Master Douglas Wilson's views on women.
Wilson's deep, gut-churning, almost-lethal-flatulence producing fear and
massive ignorance of women as well as his quavering horror of castration
torturously screams out from his writings. However, it is too late for him to
worry about losing his balls. Fait Accompli.
Further, it is particularly uncanny that you raised the issue of the Cult
Master's testicles at this particular time!
I've just been updated about their status by inside man Gray Greenphlegm
(Zoomie's Bakery, Booger's Coffee House, Greenphlegm Coffee, Balls and Crotch
Book Stall, etc.). The true story of the misadventures of the Cult Master's
balls is a marvelous, divinely inspired, modern religious parable.
We last heard of the Cult Master's balls when they were in the hands (no pun
intended) of Rose Huskey, sorceress and excisor by her wit of pathetic Douglas
Wilson's balls.
Rose was exhibiting these singular objects around the Palouse not only
because they formerly belonged to the Cult Master, but because of their curious,
unexpected properties. First, coming from such a large, obese man the testicles
were tiny and underdeveloped. Second, they were not ovoid but round like those
of a hyena. Third, they were not flesh colored but were an amazing bright
scarlet. "They look like rotten miniature beets!" exclaimed both attorney
Gregor Dickistoosmal and Aaron Retch of the Collegiate Deformed Fellowship.
Rose Huskey is a practical woman. For exhibition purposes, she was carrying
the Cult Master's testicles around in a zip-lock bag. Unfortunately, she was
almost run down in that dangerous crosswalk by the Moscow Police Station.
During her scurry, she accidentally dropped Douglas Wilson's balls.
Fortunately, they were immediately found by Eileen I. Wantout, famous,
eccentric Moscow sculptress and member of the Christ Church Cult.
It is well known that an insanely driving creative urge sometimes seizes and
possesses Ms. Wantout. This time the urge hit her when she was in a
semi-comatose state induced by listening to one of Douglas Wilson's taped
sermons. In her impaired state she mistook the Cult Master's balls for
play-dough. She then tried to fashion them into shapes of small animals and
religious icons. Unfortunately, this did not work.
Giving her effort up as a lost cause, Eileen returned the Cult Master's
mangled balls to their zip-lock bag and absentmindedly put them in her purse.
Like Thales of yore, Eileen sometimes wanders about with her wits focused on
things other than where she is going or what she is doing. Consequently, her
purse was snatched.
When the snatcher opened the purse to extract its treasures, the first thing
he discovered was the Cult Master's tiny, mangled balls. This so thoroughly
discommoded the snatcher that he threw the zip-lock bag with the tiny scarlet,
rotten beet look-alikes into the first automobile with an open window he found.
Miraculously, the receiving vessel belonged to Norma Stonewell,
internationally famous painter. Stonewell had recently and graciously
volunteered to do an 11 x 8 foot inspirational painting for the University of
Idaho's Women's Center. She was artistically blocked, however, because she was
unable to find a pigment of just the right color for strategic parts of her
brilliant artistic conception.
Talk about divine serendipity! The Cult Master's balls were exactly the
natural color Stonewell was looking for!
The rest is history. Stonewell immediately took the Cult Master's testicles
to her studio. Norma then crushed and ground Douglas Wilson's balls with her
massive mortar and pestle, adding secret ingredients and thus making pigment
from them. She then painted feverishly for several weeks to produce her now
famous masterpiece of classical religious allegory.
As most of you know the painting depicts a young woman standing triumphantly
over the body of a dead pastor who had just ordered her death by stoning in a
great, blithering rage. The young woman had dared to declare that women have
the same rights as men! The pastor depicted in the painting is an utterly
unmistakable image of the gluttonous Douglas Wilson.
Exhibiting a brilliant stroke of divinely inspired, stunning symbolism and
subtext, the painting clearly shows that the pastor choked to death after
swallowing a gargantuan gob of eagle feces. There is no other reasonable
interpretation than this massive, multi-colored, amorphous mass fell from the
sky just as the pastor was looking upward exhorting God to visit holy, heinous,
basaltic vengeance on the young woman.
Stonewell's vivid, meticulous portraiture of the nearby, still circling
eagle and the scrupulously detailed partially saliva-covered flecks and jagged
clumps of eagle feces spewed in and around the mouth and beard of the dead
pastor (whose lips and interior mouth were colored in part using the pigment
described above) are considered to be the finest examples of micro-detailing in
the history of painting. In fact, as most know, Stonewell unanimously won the
Nobel Prize for this magnificent work of art as well as unanimously winning many
other prestigious awards. Many claim that in voting for all these awards, the
juries were directly guided by the hand of God.
Norma Stonewell's painting, entitled "God Drops a Hint", adorns a wall of
the UI Women's Center. Despite having lost his balls, this exhibition must make
Cult Master Douglas Wilson feel especially warm and prickly all over: His
former testicles are now helping to inspire women of all ages, races, and sexual
orientations toward achieving full equality and full self-realization.
In a previous posting the following was mentioned when Wilson's son-in-law,
Ben Merkle, also lost his balls also to Rose Huskey's castrating wit. (Now, Ben
's balls are enshrined in the giant jar of pickled eggs at the Corner Club.)
According to the Know-Alls at Christian Bestiality, testicles from an Athabaskan
pygmy goat could normally be transplanted onto the Cult Master. This was
diligently and strenuously tried, but unfortunately, the operation was a
failure. The goat testicles rejected the patient.
Sincerely,
Wayne

Subject: RE: [Vision2020] Cult Master: Women should not be able to choose to
defend their country
| Hi Mr. Fox,
|
| I'm not at all surprised by Wilson's Absent Without Leave blog entry. For
| the benefit of new V2020 members and for those who may have missed it the
| first time around, I'm going to repost part of my "Why Moscow?" post from
a
| couple of months ago.
|
| Wilson has written:
| "If those who hate the Word of God can succeed in getting Christians to be
| embarrassed by any portion of the Word of God, then that portion will
| continually be employed as a battering ram against the godly principles
that
| are currently under attack. In our day, three of the principal issues are
| abortion, feminism, and sodomy."
| http://www.credenda.org/old/issues/vol4/them4-6.htm
|
| Clearly, then, we understand Wilson and his church's position on
"abortion,
| feminism, and sodomy." <sigh>
|
| However, how many of us knew that Wilson's opposition to equal rights for
| women is rabid enough that should women be allowed in combat to defend our
| country, he would advocate the following?
|
| "The American military is currently acting the part of a weak sister. The
| pressure is on to bring women into combat roles. . . Indications of our
| cultural dissolution are legion these days, but this one ranks in the top
| five . . . A nation defended by her women is a nation no longer worth
| defending. When women are placed in the front line of defense, every
| Christian man should walk away from the cause of that nation as being
| beneath contempt. Taking this a step further, a nation as far gone as to
| think that women in combat is a viable way to go is a nation which is no
| longer defensible in principle-even if there remains a misguided desire to
| defend it. Men who understand their duties in this regard . . . should
| recognize that the result of all our evangelical dithering about is that
the
| nation which we call the United States has already been lost."
| http://www.credenda.org/issues/10-3husbandry.php
|
| Wow!
|
| Since the US is already "lost," what, then, is a man to do? Well, never
| fear because Wilson has your answer, and it offers further insight into
his
| empire building here in Moscow:
|
| "Families should begin congregating in communities where these duties are
| understood, and the men of those communities have every intention of
| fulfilling those duties. Christian men who are in the military should get
| out at the first lawful opportunity and move to a community where they may
| defend their families instead of their current unwilling defense of the
| feminist agenda . . . The prohibition to women in Deuteronomy 22:5 is one
| which blindsides us. We knew abortion and homosexuality were
abominations."
|
| Double-wow!! So, is it Wilson's perception that *our* Moscow community
| *doesn't* support women's rights (among other things)??? I guess he
thinks
| it doesn't really matter what our community values since his empire is
| recruiting people to move to our community who share his desires for a
| theocracy -- I guess he figures (incorrectly, I hope) that has to start
| someplace, so he's targeted our community as the first step :-( That
seems
| clear to me in spite of Wilson's public protestations otherwise.
|
| I hope and pray this community will continue to wake up and smell Wilson's
| coffee . . . and understand *why* it's necessary to speak out against such
| wickedness. He has a very clearly stated agenda that I believe is
abhorrent
| to our community and flatly antithetical to what makes our community
Moscow.
|
| But, please, Please, PLEASE *don't* take my word for it! Go straight to
the
| horse's mouth and read Wilson's own published words. Compare and contrast
| what he says when he's talking to others who share his beliefs with what
he
| says when he's addressing those who don't share his particular flavor of
| Christianity. As a community, I hope we will continue to use our
collective
| critical thinking skills to keep the wool from being pulled over our eyes.
|
| So, please remind me again: who is it that's supposed to be intolerant???

|
| Normal Folks,
|
| The following is a dido (perhaps, some might uncivilly say "dildo"[you can
| infer his target]) from Christ Church Cult Master Douglas Wilson's
| self-sucking weblog (webblot?) www.dougwils.com.
|
| Not only should women be disallowed from being on the board of his two-bit
| cult school, Bogus School, (despite the fact at the time of his initial
| suggestion, both the President and Prime Minister of Finland were women),
| but apparently women should not be given the freedom to choose how they
wish
| to serve their country!
|
| It also appears that it is more important to the Cult Master that he win
his
| private "cultural conflict" (anti-egalitarism) than it is for the U.S. to
| bring the conflict in Iraq to a satisfactory conclusion (assuming one is
| possible).
|
| Can you say "pathological egomaniacal megalomania" or the less polite
| equivalent?

|
| As the war in Iraq grinds on, multiple lessons can be gleaned from it. And
| not all the lessons have anything to do with the tactical details of this
| particular war.
|
| One of the most strking things about this conflict is that when I see
| talking heads on the teevee talking about it, whether they support or
oppose
| the war, whether they are conservative or liberal, they always manage to
get
| in something about how they of course support "our brave men and women" in
| uniform. And there, with those two words -- "and women" -- we have a
| showcase example of how our domestic kennel-fed conservative leaders do
not
| have any earthly idea of what kind of cultural conflict we are in.
| Apparently victory in Iraq is important enough that we should purchase it
| through fundamental defeats here at home.
|
| When young girls are killed or maimed in combat, where are the leading
| conservative spokesmen who take the opportunity to raise the point and
press
| it? Why does no one point out that the abomination is, you know,
abominable?
| Of course, they don't do it then out of consideration for the grieving
| families. And they don't do it later because there is no reason to when
the
| heat is off. For all the saber-rattling conservatives can do when it comes
| to fighting backward nations with high-tech weaponry, when it comes to an
| issue that might require actual courage from them, they are to use a
| military term, AWOL.
