Manholes Could Offend Someone So Refer to them as Maintenance Holes

In the land of fruit and nuts they just keep losing their minds.  The folks in Berkeley, who first off refused to allow the military to have a recruitment office in their city, has now voted and approved of an entire list of words that can't be used in their fair city.

Oh yea, and no more natural gas.

At a Tuesday night city council meeting, Berkeley became the first city in America to ban the use of natural gas piping in new construction. But that was not the only utility-related issue they saw fit to attend to. No, there was another matter on deck: Eliminating the gendered connotations of words like "manhole" in the city municipal code.

No longer will the streets of fair Berkeley be dotted with manholes, nary a womanhole or nonbinaryhole in sight. With Tuesday night's vote, they have all been transmuted into "maintenance holes," that highest, hardest glass manhole-cover finally shattered.

The item, originally on the council agenda for March 12, was sponsored by councilmembers Rigel Robinson, Cheryl Davila, Ben Bartlett and Lori Droste, reports Berkeleyside. The ordinance eliminates all gendered pronouns from the city code, replacing "she" and "he" with "they."

"Manpower" will be referred to as "human effort," and "man-made" objects will be described with terms like "human-made," "artificial," "manufactured," "machine made" or "synthetic."

Gendered professional terms like "fireman," "firewoman" and "craftsman" will be swapped out for gender-neutral substitutes like "firefighter" and "craftspeople." "Heirs" will become "beneficiaries," a "sportsman" is now a "hunter," and an "ombudsman" is now just an "ombuds." The estimated cost of the revisions is a modest $600.

Because they reject God and embrace evolution and "mother nature" God has given them over to foolish and futile thinking.

One day they may have to have a vote as to whether Satan should be called "he", "she" or "they".  And what about all the angels who appeared in the Bible always as men?  Maybe they can take a vote and demand that the fallen angels quit tormenting them while acting like men but maybe show up as nasty women who torment them? 

Just sayin'...
