Chapter 29.
1. Two more years passed, O Theophilus, and Richard continued to rage
against God, and especially the Catholics and Muslims who, for different
reasons, were serious in their beliefs.
2. And the liberals cheered him, saying "This Dawkins is one of us", and
indeed he had won the prestigious "Services to Godbashing" award from the
British Godbasher Association, the even more prestigious "Carpet-chewer of the year"
prize from the American Carpet-chewer Society, and the very wonderful
"GOD-EX-TER-MIN-ATOR" medal from the Dalek colony in outer space.
Those were happy times for Richard.
3. But the world was moving on, and those who favoured liberal opinions suddenly
found that they needed to change their beliefs with the times.
4. For in Richard's youth it had been well known that there were just two sexes,
indeed "male and female created He them" was considered to be an obvious truth,
at least if rewritten as "they had either male or female genes, although we don't believe in any Creator, ha ha!"
5. But there arose a myriad of other sexes, carefully renamed as genders, except when used in expressions such as
"
Gender Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll".
6. Indeed, Joanne of Warthogs, writer of 7 books, each longer than the previous one,
had been cancelled because she refused to move with the times, and insisted that all people were either
male, female, or Snape.
7. Thus the liberals said "We will buy all the copies of her books and burn them". Which did not distress the lady Joanne
too much.
The train that Joanne wished to take was also cancelled.
8. Then Richard spake out too, and for once he decided to speak out about something he knew about.
9. "Sex really is binary. No question about it. Simply look at your selfish genes, and you can tell
what 'gender' you are, and you cannot change it," said he.
10. And there were howls of rage from the liberals, who had now renamed themselves "Wokes" with the
slogan "Be kind".
11. "Richard is a hater! Cancel him! Exterminate him! Buy all his books and burn them!"
12. "Richard is literally Hitler!"
"I agree with Richard!"
13. And the Mouthfoaming Association of Loonyville, California, withdrew Richard's prestigious Moathfoamer of the Year
award.
14. But Richard refused to recant his beliefs, although he was embarrassed to receive an invitation to
join the Vatican Synod of Synods and the Muslim Synod on Infidel-smiting
as an external expert.
