Why not, since the religious also claim that James was the older Brother of Jeebus Chrust which, to my mind, would either mean that Joseph was originally a Widower OR Little Virginal Mary had been around the block, so to speak, at least once before J.C. came along, ergo NO longer a Virgin. Perhaps Mary went to see a Hermit and got herself Hermitically re-sealed....LOL.

Triphid replies on Feb 28, 2021:
@yvilletom No, not really since the Gravitational pull exerted by the Sun on the Earth is counteracted by the distance of the Earth from the Sun and the Centrifugal force the Earth experiences as it orbits the Sun. Centrifugal forces ALWAY force objects to TRY to move OUTWARDS away from the centre and NOT towards the centre, Basis Physic at work there btw. LIGHT travels at approx. 186,000 miles per second, hence it takes, given that 1 Au (Astronomical Unit being the mean distance from the Earth to the Sun btw) is approx. 93,000,000 million miles it takes the light emitted by the Sun approx. 8.325 seconds for it reach the Earth, hence when one views the Sunrise it has already happened approx. 8.325 seconds ago.

@Leelu We used to have a bloke who worked with us on the railways who also had a glass eye. His best ruse/trick to play on the newbies at lunch or Smoko-time was to remove the eye place it next to his lunch/coffee and go off for a pee. When asked by a newbie as to WHY he was doing so, he'd answer, " It's keeping an eye on my drink/lunch for me, it'll tell me if any of you buggers do anything that I need to know about."

From what I have read regarding Darwin, his wife encouraged him to write his Theories of Evolution and the Origins of the Species even though she was religious. Also, Darwin's daughter was his main research assistant when he was married and was back home in England.

Me too, I was bullied in Primary School for months until the Scholl Bully and his 2 Followers started on a girl who wore glasses. I could NOT stand by and watch that happen so I challenged to an All -in Fight after school one day. Skinny as a tooth-pick me against a much bigger heavier built Brute but I remember what I was taught, LET him make the first swing and NEVER let ANGER into it because it becomes his weapon not yours. To cut the story short, he swung first, I ducked, he missed and then I went in and brought him down BIG time. A busted nose, bruised face, 2 Black eyes, split lips and a broken jaw later and he begging for mercy. I walked away with sore and bruised knuckles and dozens of his victims cheering and patting me on my back. A week later and he transferred to another school and was never heard of again. No God, No Jesus, No Praying, just guts, grit and a determination to end his brutal reign.

Yep, I've done my own Oil Changes for as many years as I've had, owned and driven cars and rode motorcycles and NEVER once made the mistakes like he has made. I had a Datsun 200B Station wagon back in the 89's and early 90's, it was second-hand and in the temps out here it would overheat from time to time so I replace the radiator with one from a 2.4 litre engine capacity Nissan Navara, perfect fit btw, same make but different name. Replaced the 2 litre Water Pump with one from the 2.4 litre Navara and she never overheated ever again even when towing a 7x4' Box section Trailer loaded down with Firewood on a 110 kilometre trip back to town. Never replace the radiator with a smaller one, ALWAYS go bigger but NOT too much bigger and ALWAYS have it cleaned by a Professional Cleaner BEFORE putting it in. Jeez, I always used a stuff we call 'Gorilla Snot,' aka Aviation Gasket sealant, on the Sump Drainage Plug as well, a bit harder to remove when draining the sump BUT at least you KNOW that the plug will NOT work its way loose at least.

Triphid replies on Feb 25, 2021:
@Ian_Newton Friend I've been an Atheist for almost all my 67 years of life, a Psychologist for well over 25 years, a Child and Youth Counsellor for 25+ years, have 2 PhD's, 1 ThD and 5 Bachelors Degrees and working on my 6th and 7th now. I also have 3 Certificates in Nursing, a current Certificate in First Aid and First Response Trauma response which puts me about 1-2 degrees BELOW the level of being a Paramedic. Being biased against anything except religion/s IS my ONLY bias FYI. And, may one asks WHAT tables, evidences, etc, were actual displayed/shown for anyone to actually peruse?
Well, I haven't been on Agnostics in a good while.

Triphid replies on Feb 25, 2021:
A fair percentage of us aren't Misogynistic/Misogynists fortunately. As to me, I've more often than not, been described as a S.N.A.G., i.e. a Sensitive New Age guy, and was even described as being being so by my own late and much lament daughter as well.
ok, this is gonna stir in some problematic commentary and divide the opinions, but i'll say it.

@James121 Taking photos when everyone is searched BEFORE gong on watch and afterwards as well. Pit #4 IS the ONLY Coal mine on the Illawarra Escarpment that has a 10 feet high Chain-wire Mesh Fence encircling it, more floodlights than a maximum Security Prison and guards patrolling both outside and inside the fence PLUS 2 guards at the entrance-way into the Pit, 2 more at the entrance to Level 17 and 4 more patrolling the excavated object. In 1978-79 when I was there you WERE required to SIGN the Secrecy Act, change from your uniform into a WHITE boiler suit and take NOTHING of a personal nature down with you NOT even your meals. You did 3 hours on Level 17, 3 hours at the Level Entrance and 2 hours at the Pit Entrance for every shift.

Triphid replies on Feb 23, 2021:
Well, I'd say both a Yes and No to some of your comments here. Since some docos and books are, more often than not, FACT based, though some are somewhat biased on occasions as well, many. many more are very reliable and often true. As to visitation s from Extra-terrestrial Beings, well now, I worked in the Commonwealth Police for 4 years under secondment to another Government Department know as A.S.I.S. There is an 'object' in Level 17 of Pit 4 in the Illawarra Escarpment that has been guarded 24/7 x 365 around the clock since it was uncovered by Coal Miners in 1956. Level 17 IS one of the richest Coal seams in Australia and has been dated back to the Cambrian Epoch of Earth History btw, so that tells how old the layer/seam is. I have actually seen it, as have everyone who was/is ROSTERED to guard it, it IS NOT natural in shape, size or of known materials, has no entrances visible and NO support structures holding it in place either. It is approx. 3 metres in length, 2.5 metres in width and 1.89 metres in height as well, very very shiny on the exterior and looks very much like a tear drop in shape.

Triphid replies on Feb 23, 2021:
We also get something kind of similar but smaller, it's called 'Love Grass' because of its seed heads having little hooks that stick to anything that brushes against it. then those little seed capsules use the 'hooks' to actually 'worm' their way in to clothing, skin, animal fur, etc, etc, causing horrible and often weeping sores, etc. IF they get into the ears or eyes of animals they can and do often causes deafness and blindness if left unattended to.

Oh yes, Paterson's Curse, aka Sally Jane (Salvation Jane what a misnomer that is), livestock won't eat it because it is toxic just like the Paddimelons, a plant similar to Rock-melons/Watermelons their fruit look so inviting when ripe BUT one taste of them and in no time at all you've got severe stomach cramps followed by vomiting, fever, a skin rash and then a really bad case of the explosive shits that can last for anywhere between 24-72 hours non-stop.

Which, btw, my waist-line bears testament too....LOL. Lorrae always had a LONG list of her favourites that she'd request me to make, including Stir-fries, Casseroles, Soups, Desserts, especially Pavlovas, and my 'specialities' like Chicken Bolognaise, Roast Lamb/Beef done in the coals of an open fire, Apricot Chicken, Plum pork Casserole AND my Special Mashed Potatoes with 4 different varieties of Shredded Cheeses mixed into them.

Triphid replies on Feb 22, 2021:
@p-nullifidian 1) to achieve this so-called Herd/Community Immunity then 100% of the Herd/Community needs to vaccinated, which also means that NO other NON Original Herd/Community members can be accepted/enter into that Herd/Community period, 2) Vaccinations, although causing the Immune System to create Antibodies to the specific Infective Agent, need regular Booster Vaccinations to REMAIN Effective, i.e. Tetanus is one example in that it requires a Booster Vaccination every 5 years.
