I must admit I'm usually not bothered by people who don't like
my posts, but Phil's activity has really begun to irk me.
I guess it's because I can't fathom it.
Why is he so obsessed with censoring me?
I mean, is anyone really threatened by my satanic verses?
Perhaps he sees me as a higher species and resents me on a primal
level he doesn't understand himself.
A resentment, no doubt, precisely of the same type experienced by
the mighty Australopithecine upon the advent of Homo habilis.
A harbinger of his own demise...
A changing of the guard...
Deja vu all over again....
