Yes, Gandhi and MLK put their lives on the line and you wrote some rubbish about the people that make Fairy Liquid.

They were politicians, not philosophers.


You are a brain dead moron, not a prophet.

Being one doesn't exclude you from being the other.

Besides, aren't you the one that's always telling us how we should trust Wikipedia? Well it lists him as a "Contemporary Indian Philosopher" and it cites the significance of King's writing as an influence on political philosophy outside of the academic arena. So I assume that's good enough for you.

You would have to prove a negative. Did they ever invite him? Did he refuse?



African American leaders went to India to lure Gandhi to come to the United States to lead or direct the struggle of African Americans. He refused to come.

They were ignorant of the fact that the caste system was originally imposed, as racial discrimination (Varna Ashrama Dharma) similar to the Apartheid system, on the black natives of India. But later Varna Ashrama Dharma evolved into caste system. Untouchabilty is as integral a part of Hindu faith. Gandhi has said “I believe in Varnashrama (caste system) which is the law of life. The law of Varna (color and / or caste).

He had his hands full already I think.

I wonder if this is disinformation. Gandhi flew against the caste system by wearing homespun and collecting salt. His actions speak against the words your quote. Where are they from?

King and Gandhi never looked a million-dollar lawsuit in the eye without blinking.

I'm just stating the facts. I took on P&G and the FBI, and they're the ones who blinked. Bob the Baptist kowtows to no one.

So you keep telling us but even if it were true you're a single-minded self-obsessed bore about it.

Are you suggesting that an honest-to-God prophet would lie to you???

Is this not just another part of your delusion?
How about proving it?

Check out the letter from the business reporter who covered P&G for the Cincinnati Enquirer (http://church-of-ouzo.com/pdf/cincinnati-enquirer.pdf). She wanted to do an investigative story on a possible illegal conspiracy between P&G and an FBI investigation of me even before I published "That Infamous Logo". Most people would be afraid of the FBI, but it's the FBI who's afraid of me, and that goes double for P&G! (Chaz is like my little sock puppet!)

I've got an even better idea, email "That Infamous Logo" (http://church-of-ouzo.com/pdf/infamous-logo.pdf) to both the president and chief legal officer of P&G, and ask them why they are letting the Church of Ouzo besmirch their fine company this way! That should be proof enough for you, O my brothers in tribulation!

Why does the boozo not do this himself and get back to us with the replies. As its getting very boring hearing about it here.

Personally I think P&G can't face raking this all up again and have realised that the best way to deal with the Internut loon is ignore them as if they don't then the bad publicity will start all over again and the conspiracy kooks will always believe the loons.

Will the boozo ever be saying what this 'God' is that he believes in? A big being in the sky? The All-father looking over one? Is it the same 'God' as the Jews and Muslims?

As I thought - delusion.
