Political Correctness Gone Mad

Oh dear on the bbc news they are apparently changing wording in kids books in case someone takes offence or creates bullying they are really getting silly now . Apparently wierd is one of those words being removed . Others are fat , ugly and crazy in case it upsets someone . Not ladylike is now replaced with undignified , formidable female is now formidable woman . Mother and father is now parents and cloud men are now cloud people , it goes on utter crazyness its political correctness gone mad . What sort of world are we leaving our kids , oh my god .

@Convivial my God they would have to throw the whole goddamn thing away and start from scratch. They would have to say that those who do not believe in gosh will be darned in heck.

@CestManan starting again is not a bad idea lol😜

@Convivial Rest assured that the only parts going to disappear in the future rewritings are passages such as "[i]it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of A needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God[/i]"

@Elessar are they going to keep all the parts where it talks about how everyone is going to crispify in Hell

@CestManan Yep, and they'll add new ones. Someone definitely gotta have to put the word "woke" in there
