Bones might be a prostitute, he might be this, and he might be that. However one thing Bones knows he’s not is a stupid bigot. One of those creepy worms, slipping around in the underbelly of societies slime, disparaging their fellow men and women because of the color of their skin, their religion, or where they came from. Most of the people that took advantage of his poverty to hurt him were bigots too. That’s just the way bigots behave, they think they’re better than God. Bobby |

"they think they’re better than God." that is an excellent way of putting it... I agree. |

"Bigot" and "Bones" are not synonymous, to be sure! I'm with Bones on his dislike of bigots! ![]() Linda |

James, You bring up an interesting point. If I said I hated bigots, then that would make me a bigot too, wouldn't it. No, I have loved some bigots, such as my father. I have tried to understand them, and loved them anyway. Let's just say I don't like bigotry, I disapprove of it. My own close family includes all three major races of man. Bobby |

Thanks LindsayP, No, bigotry is no good, and once again, as Bones would say--"There's no money in it." Bobby |
