It is wonderful that the writer can quote the Bible. I am familiar with the book. During World War II, Japanese American soldiers found that the concept of an American being Buddhist or non-Christian and not Jewish was fairly new when they were issued their dog tags. Consider that Buddhist not only do not celebrate Christmas, but they also do not have the concept of sin. Japan is predominately a Buddhist country. I wasn't aware the number of stereotypes of Japanese were the four listed. I'm not sure where variety comes from or what it might mean. I'm not sure how many football players, particularly those playing under Parcells have slanted eyes. I am pretty sure that Japanese ethnics aren't the only ones with slanted eyes. I do not know much about football, but I've never considered that they might play with dry cleaned clothing. I do know how to use lower and upper case letters and that it is bad netiquette to use all upper case. One should blame a person for the statements that person makes unless under those statements are made duress or the person is considered mentally irresponsible and in need of a caretaker. I am not Buddhist nor am I Christian, but I am quite used to having Christians force their religious views on me. So I will end by saying, happy holidays and stay sober. 681962@blogcritics.org Fri, 21 Dec 2007 12:11:36 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/06/20/035859.php#comment-681524 ASK PARCEL: "WHAT IS A JAP PLAY" BEFORE YOU JUDGE THE MAN. HERE ARE POSSIBILITIES: 1. KAMIKAZE STYLE, SACRIFICE TEAM MEMBERS. 2. VARIETY, LIKE JAPANESE CUISINE 3. ONLY PLAYERS WITH SLANTED EYES WILL PLAY. 4. ALL PLAYERS WILL HAVE DRY CLEANED CLOTHING ON. ON AND ON. YOU PICK THE STEREOTYPE AND THEN BLAME THE COACH FOR HIS STATEMENT? THAT IS THE SIN. "JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE NOT JUDGED WITH THE SAME JUDGMENT WITH WHICH YE JUDGED." 681524@blogcritics.org Wed, 19 Dec 2007 18:13:39 EST
