Guest guest Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Words are as dangerous as guns. There is a five day waiting period before you can own a gun. Well, there should be a waiting period for words before you blurt them. People don't realize the damage they can do with one word. This up to now unknown true historical anecdote made up by me, will do well to illustrate my point: Columbus, on landing on San Salvador was so shocked and disappointed in seeing a bunch of naked savages come to greet him instead of the silk robed emissaries of the Great Khan that he exclaimed aloud, " Fuck. " His horny men misinterpreted this exclamation for an order, and threw themselves on the natives. The admiral further surprised and shocked by the orgy of raping that ensued, again exclaimed, " Fuck. " His men, interpreting this as an order to fuck harder, really revved their hips. The exasperated admiral yelled, " Stop this fornication or I'll shoot you. " His men not knowing what fornication meant, ignored him. Columbus drew his pistol, but the friar by his side grabbed his arm saying, " Admiral you can't shoot your men for following your orders that is against reason, Christian morality, and the Spanish Navy regulations. " " I did not order this atrocity! Are you mad? " " You yelled, " Fuck! " It's natural that after three months at sea without seeing a naked woman, your men heard that as an order. I know it's not your fault, nor theirs, but that rather these savages provoked the incident with their wanton, sinful nakedness. I also see they are provoking our greed by wearing all those idolatrous gold ornaments. We must see that this natives are properly clothed and that all gold is confiscated to prevent greed. I'll hear confessions from the men later, and give them absolution from this sin. Now, my son I will go a pray for these poor souls.
