Father Ted is one of those stand alone productions.
I'll give Swan Lake a go, if you'll give Father Ted one.

Nubiles in tutus ain't swans.
It's that fantasy reality crossover where you seem to get confused.
Like Jesus wasn't an actual bloke.

Nah, he's referred to as he because he was invented by men...Back in the day, women had very little say in the matter...And in the first instance he would have been thought of as swarthy with dark hair and beard...Though as the stories spread north and west he became more Europeanised, which is why in latter day picture bibles he resembled a west coast rock star.

I'm assuming, based upon power to weight ratio that Moms wings are dominant...Also the bill to proboscis ratio.
Dad is perhaps just dominant in the stripe department.
Though do Dads wings still flap approximately 230 times per second and give you that Dad buzz.
As for pollination, Dad took a big risk but it obviously paid off.

And how do you know it's male?
Okay so he rapes betrothed virgins.

What about beings from other planets.
It's a bit narrow minded to assume that Christianity is Universal.
For example...For the Planet Tharg in the Quadrillion sector GOD sent his daughter Kylie...Today the chief Thargian religion is Kylianity..So in heaven there will also be a place for Kylie songs.

Yes, that is a truism.
Which is to say that one assumes that Jesus was probably a real bloke, on who a trend was set...Perhaps posthumously.

Hmmm, relative to heaven all incomers will be alien.
It's a tad arrogant to assume that Heaven is a human only resort....Just like it was a tad arrogant to assume that the creator thingy was a man, solely based upon the notion that there was a creator thingy in the first instance.
Same applies to avian existence...Though I'm guessing that it's still probably wise to not choose the same hotel as the Eagles...Find one with a pool, that caters for aquatic vegetarians...Though if you are an adventurous sort, you perhaps wouldn't mind mixing it with insectivorous songbirds...Better karaoke...But just stay of the mic... Quack quack quack, won't be appreciated.

If there is an omni-sensible omni-decent GOD, then afterlifeness will be a for all thing.
Whereas, if GOD is an omni-arsehole, who the F would want to go live with it.

Nah Rubbish Shila.
One way or another the State is always governed, by a greater or lesser tyranny, that decides who gets what.
The communism that you refer to exists only as a fictional narrative.

Yep, as clear as mud.
And the holy spirit is distilled or fermented.
Though alternative hallucinogenics are available.
Such was and is shamanism.
Such were Abraham and Moses, to name but two.
And the trinity is either a toasted cheese and ham sandwich, or fries, cheese curds and gravy...You choose.
Could have rhubarb crumble and custard to follow if you like...Though alternative sweet trinities are available.
And if you fancy a spirit to wash it all down, how about a gin and tonic with a slice of lemon...Failing that, three glasses of wine....Hallucinations a go go.

Yes, who needs honey when you've got maple syrup.
And bees come in the door and spend all day going up and down the window trying to get out again, until they eventually collapse from exhaustion...How clever is that?
I've never had a duck come in the door and do the same...Though I sometimes have a Chinese one sizzling in plum sauce.
Though for sure the stripy outfits are cool...Bees must be closely related to zebras and tigers...Buzzing is similarly cool...Though flapping their wings 230 times per second is ridiculously energy inefficient.

That's the North and South.
Whereas In essence, capitalism and communism are two styles of more or less brutal tyranny, whereby goods, wealth and power are distributed accordingly.
For sure, principles may vary but are nonetheless essentially the same...I have and you do or else.

A. Sensory perception and database based comparisons relative to accumulated and conclusive intellectual agreement.
B. Though I'm not sure if the same positive assessments can be made in respect of varying symbolism.
So in the first instance, touch, assess and apply effective measures accordingly and appropriately.
In the second, read, weep and move on, as it were...The English alphabet and basic decimal system will suffice.

Even ducks worship swans.
There you go again, yet another unprovable assumption that is impossible to disprove.
But the onus is definitely upon you.
The chicken came first.
Though the chicken wasn't adapted for water based activities, unlike the swan and the duck.
Though vocally, the cockerel has it.

Everyone registers somewhere, it's the nature of the intelligent brain and it's processes.
Having the ability to construct religious concepts, yet not deconstruct them is a prime example.
But we tend not to grow up worshipping Santa Claus...So deconstructing fantasy constructs is wholly doable.

Yep, for sure all religious stuff is made up shit.
As Ug said to Og, uh ah uh.
And Og replied ah uh ah.
And Ug smote down Og for being blasphemous, and then went and mated with the former Mrs Og.
And the gospel according to Ug was uh ah uh.
And Ug went ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Is "The Bible" a Christian book or a Judaic book?
Nonetheless, the evolution of species existence relative to "struggles" was/is what it was/is.
And a book is just a book.

Does it all really matter.
Well, that's a big question with no definitive answer currently available.
We can only speculate.
Though I suppose that the answer is either Yes or No.
Though the answer could be Yes and No.
But I will say that ultimately the answer is NO.

True, though there are many such books that are similarly embellished with fantasy and magic...They are referred to as Mythologies.
So we can dig up and date stuff but we cannot verify either God or Thor.
And even if the original commandments are unearthed, we will not know the identity of the stonemason.

Well, Christianity is an organisation that conforms with necessary religious criteria and is therefore undeniable defined and classified as a religion.
Therefore archaeology is somewhat irrelevant.
Whether or not the basis of any religion has any credibility as an accurate explanation for human creation and existence is another issue and cannot be resolved by archaeological interpretation.
The ten commandments were obviously compiled by men for men, under the auspices of religious dogma.
Though I would point out that the ten commandments were supposedly given to Moses some 1500 years before the foundation of Christianity, and therefore are not specifically relative to the Christian religion...More so Judaism, relative to tribal Israelites who migrated from Egypt at the time.
