Remember that awful romance book with potato salad flinging and trite one dimensional characters Doug Wilson wrote titled “The Man in the Dark”? Wilson is at it again, he’s written a book about a sex robot in the future “Ride, Sally, Ride” scheduled for release in a mere five days.
It looks like this self-described satirical book is in response to Aimee Byrd’s “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” Aimee’s book is a very basic treatise on the idea that men and women can reach across ridiculous toxic Christian purity culture to be friends. Novel in Christian circles, pretty normal stuff in regular folks. The book was published two years ago and Doug is still bloviating against it, with his insistence that any friendship between man and woman will end on the tines of someone else’s sexual organs.
“Ride, Sally, Ride” is Wilson’s grand opus against Byrd’s book and is described by the author at various book buying and review sites thusly:
“It’s two decades in the future, and a Christian college student named Ace Hartwick has just destroyed his neighbor’s so-called “wife” — actually a sexbot named Sally — in a trash compactor. Soon, Ace will be on trial for murder.
Unfortunately for Ace, everyone despises his kind of “radical” Christianity, and, in the fragile America of the future, all the juries are fixed.”
Utter ridiculousness. Robots are not sentient beings. Second, is Doug so childish that he thinks that juries are not subject to fixing and manipulation now? I challenge him to read “Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption” by Bryan Stevenson and then tell me that justice is just in the United States.
He’s been dropping the usual silly little tidbits of this trite tale at his blog for some times now. The quote above about the raven haired beauty is from the book. It’s a description of the robot that ends up in the trash compactor. Let’s look at a few.
So far this book reads like a flaming mountain of excrement concocted out of what he thinks are clever cliches. More crazy word saladteering. So you know what that means. Yes, as soon as the Kindle version is out we will be doing a review. This sounds a million times more interesting that Doug’s justification for loving racism “Black and Tan”
What a day! First the Republicans announce the raging dumpster fire slate of bizarre speakers for the convention and now Doug’s deep in sexual fantasyland again. You cannot even make this stuff up. Thanks for the belly laugh, Doug!
