 May those who still feel compelled to repeat the old meme "TM is not a 
religion" continue to do so. May those of us who laugh at and pity them 
continue to do so.  

 

 Can one be taking pity and laughing at someone at the same time? If so, what 
kind of "pity" is that? I will venture a guess and say it is not pity at all 
but complete, unmitigated scorn. With Bawwy there doesn't seem to be any middle 
ground; he either reveres something or he despises it. So much for nuance and 
intellectual sophistication.
