I'm guessing khat or hashish were daft Joe's and loose Mary's drug of choice...Given all the free love and angels  that were going down at the time

Why not all four at once.

Though you would need stilts for the Giraffe.

That is an assumption...You must pay more attention when under the table.

Nope...I can honestly say that I am not prone to addictive behaviour.

Yes...Roman Catholics are very good at theo-tourism, having a vast, gullible consumer base who have a propensity for tacky souvenirs made in China...One can always find room for another Mary.

At all times.

Needs to be a long backyard for take off.

Otherwise they will just waddle.

Yes, let the dog see the rabbit, as it were.

Yes, I imagine you playing Chelsea and me as Jack of course.

Poutine and afters later.

Might just be an alcoholic.

Ahh, you speak from experience.

Sort of a latter day tour guide, for gullible theo-tourists.

No good at all.

Though sycophants do enjoy celebrating martyrs.

I much prefer avoiding heroism from a safe distance.

Is that you under the table again.

(Puts on spectacles)

Oh!...Are an active member.

Yes, I remain active.

Dogs make better companions and can be trained to not shit indoors.

Yes, dick fiddlers all.

Must be a genetic propensity for huge penises and tight foreskins.

Would be my guess anyway.

What do you think?

Hey, is something going down.

I don't want to play gooseberry here.

Could be a thought provoking black comedy set against the backdrop of a remote, post apocalyptic industrial town.

Chelsea desperate to preserve the integrity of her cream slice, in the face of overwhelming hard hats, steel toe caps and grime encrusted men hungry for relief from the daily grind and stale bread and cheese.

Jack stands out from the crowd, his vest  clean and white........

Your girlfriend cheating?

No, would count as her typical modus operandi.

So just enjoy the sex whilst it is available.

And then move on to Miss Sensible.

Why not ask Shila for a date.

Ah, new spin.

So Joseph conceived Jesus.

Now that is pushing the bounds of divine intervention.

Though daft Joe would have believed anything.

And Mary's virgin birth is about as factual as  trifle monsters on planet custard.

What we can say for sure, is that if a relative biblical character referred to as Mary gave birth to a corresponding son named as Jesus, then approximately 9 months prior to the birth some bloke penetrated and ejaculated into a fecund vagina thereby initiating gamete fusion.

That's the way it was , as you well know.

Religion  is a  notional creation and existence hypothesis, whereas archaeology is a broad academic exercise that attempts to scientifically understand the recent past.

 Archaeology is scientific and  fact driven and tests hypotheses as such,  whereas religion  is based solely upon the suppositional notion of a divine and usually humanesque entity...So archaeology will never find god, though it might shed some light upon people and events and will inevitably include religion, given the nature of human social history.

There are other earth and cosmological sciences,  such as palaeontology, geology and astrophysics that look way beyond the briefness of human involvement for answers to the question of creation and existence.

Yeah bro, consideration is about the strength of it.

And just like I cannot substantiate the existence of trifle monsters on planet custard, you Christians cannot substantiate the the circumstances surrounding the nature of a pregnancy that occurred over 2000 years ago...So consider we must...Notwithstanding, that both you and I know how pregnancies actually occur.

And gospel narratives are...No Wesley required...Though what gospel narratives are is clear to me and necessary for you...Because you are a conditioned believer and I am conditioned to be sceptical.

Religion is as religion does and archaeology is as archaeology does. And neither is a necessary requirement of the other.

And the only holes in my heart are the ones that the blood flows through (Hopefully).

And yep, if Mary was pregnant then she wasn't a virgin, because  I doubt very much that IVF was commonplace back in the day.

You're taught non-sense and you believe non-sense....Same as any one who follows any religion...Doesn't matter which religion that archaeologists have been digging up the most...It's the way it goes.

Which isn't to say that other  more logical super-intelligence hypotheses aren't worthy of secondary consideration...But not magic.

Yes, women spend time and money  titivating the hair on their heads and time and money removing it from everywhere else.

Daftest of all is removing eyebrows and then painting on fake ones.

So how do you two approach the issue of body hair.

It would be interesting and fascinating to have an in depth understanding of your culture and beauty standards.

At 66 I've largely given up on hair management, though Mrs Zed insists on intervening from time to time.

Nose hairs used to be quick growing  and bothersome, but I have since grown a beard and now nose hairs just merge with the moustache.

And yes I do wash it at least once a month.

Yes, provides a revenue stream for colleges and consequently an income source for lecturers.

It's good to circulate money around the system.

And for sure, it's no good Mrs Chelsea Bun the baker, applying for a construction site managers job without the relevant training...Nor Mr Jack Hammer  thinking that he can just rock up and start messing with Mrs Bun's cream slice.

Whatever next?

Without penetration and sperm there would have been no Jesus.

They had to make up the virgin stuff to cover up the infidelity.

Given the ten commandments and all that.

Thou shall't not have sex with thy neighbours ass, as it were.

Yep.  GOD was a human creation, just like Zeus and Odin and Brahma and Viracocha etc etc.

Haha, you didn't fall for the old bible stuff as well.?...Did you?

Yep, DebateArt Forum is retro and cool.

And ducks preen.

No, karma results from ones actions.

Or Apiculturists.

Monty Python also did a good one.

As experienced by a duck.

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.

That is an untruth...You have never seen him praying in a garden.

And if his "karma" was preordained, then Judas could hardly betray him.

I bet that you two even believe that Bambi skating with a rabbit was a fly on the wall documentary.

Well more correctly Bethlehem was formerly in Canaan and later occupied by Jews from elsewhere.

Jews have a tendency to occupy.

Well, it's impossible know the facts of ancient Middle Eastern society, so one can only assume certain things.

Though GOD was certainly created in mans image, and I do know from childhood experience that God was latterly depicted as European rather that Middle Eastern.

One can only assume that they both orgasmed.

Because that would be smarter than smerter.

Intelligence is, as intelligence is assumed.

Wasn't wise to get nailed to a post.

Wiser to have stayed tucked up in bed with John.

And you see pink patterns.

But I'm guessing that you still scratch your own itches.

If left, Karma simply becomes a future possibility.

So you cross the road smugly and five years later you get hit by a car.

What were the chances of that?

Reasonably high, especially if you were texting.

Mmmmm

Mashed bees, doesn't sound sweet to me.

Would probably need a lot of sugar...And sieving to filter out the legs and wings and other bitty stuff.

S'all bollocks Gnost.

All bollocks made up by daft, ignorant blokes.

Whose only answer was, it must have been a bloke what did it.

And John was J's bitch, who perhaps used to dress up in red skin tight outfit, with a whip and horns...The devil indeed.

Hmmmm, such was first century fantasy, such is enduring fantasy.

Satirical but true.

Yep trinity...Sausage, mash and gravy.

No, but he was a renowned actor, famous for  his roles in early fantasy plays.

Karma is karma when it is seemingly karma...When it isn't,  no such assessment is necessary.

Though because events occur in sequence at the speed of time, it's very easy to make inaccurate assessments by overlooking the more mundane aspects of an individuals sequence.

Karma is only karma when it follows in sequence...Not the next day, or after a visit to the bathroom.

So the Universe is multi-faith with individual retirement homes?

For sure, sing songs might get quite cacophonous otherwise.

Nah, I don't suffer with the same animal fantasy syndrome as Girraficus.

Though you seem to focus on it.

Ah, you must have imagined my excitement...Did it excite you?

Yes, that is an established fact.

They produce honey from vegetable matter without the need for an electrical supply.

Humans should pay more attention.
