I guess they could have done a sneaky catholic thing of making garments and such out of bulletproof materials. Making the bubble was really emphasizing that he needs protection from the perceived devil and therefore the need for religion. Honestly, sounds like just the right amount of manipulation...

@sfvpool Why would any DECENT person need to steal from another when all they'd truly need do is simply ask? I freely and willing donate whatever I can afford to NOT For Profit Organisations such as Cancer Research, etc, even though I live fortnight to fortnight on a Government Pension. After all, as the adage goes; " He who seeks to steal or steals from me or anyone else ONLY steals from himself anyway."

@AncientNight Well that's exactly why rabbit is called 'underground chicken' out here in Australia, i.e. tastes a bit like stringy chicken but lives in warrens underground.

@Jacar Mate, I've seen the damage and wrought on Native Fauna here in Australia first hand. I've seen what feral cats do to new-born/young lambs, I've seen feral cats literally eating away at the rear end of a ewe as she is giving birth. I'd be underestimating the numbers of feral cats I've shot or trapped and killed in my lifetime if I were to say it was in the hundreds, most Sheep Graziers around here used put a bounty of $2.00 per feral cat scalp brought into them but I did it for free and just left the carcass hanging the nearest 5 strand wire fence. In just one evening some years back a friend and I killed 35 feral adult cats and found 3 dens with litters in them which we humanely shot where they were and then filled in the dens. As you've probably guessed by now, I detest cats, especially those left to roam around freely.

No ceiling fans and windows ,IF the could be opened that is, that only opened a max. of 2-3 inches IF the teachers allowed them to opened. It got even worse when I hit High School in the Mid-60s with upwards of 30 to 40 students per class mostly in wood and corrugated iron clad 'transportable' buildings, but hey, that was the way of the N.S.W.

@Morganfreeman Spiders and most insects don't survive long in my house, I have a few very environmentally friendly bug eradicators called House Geckoes who keep their numbers down to zero, free of charge. The geckoes moved in with every load of firewood I've collected from the bush each winter, I'd guess there'd be at least 100+ living in and around the house by now, they've been breeding like rabbits over the years.

You just need a couple of buddies and some baseball bats, take him out to play some 'baseball' and if he manages to break both his arms as a result of an 'accident' you can all be witnesses to his falling down and hurting himself. If he bothers her again you can take him out again for more baseball...

Triphid replies on Dec 6, 2018:

Out here i8n Broken Hill, N.S.W. Australia we don't use baseball bats, we have what is commonly called the 4x2 handshake. Take one length of 4x2 hardwood, about 1.5 metres long, take the offender into a secluded place away from prying eyes and firmly 'shake' the mongrel up with it until he or she, whatever the case maybe, begs for mercy. The 4x2 Handshake was an OLD invention of the Hard Rock miners at the very beginning of mining here to rectify the 'behaviour' of Scabs and Dobbers in the mine workforce.

@David1955 Hawke was just a piss-pot, not worth a pinch of salt in my opinion, Keating had some good intentions but the power went to his head as it did for Gillard and Rudd. Malcolm, 'the Razor' Frazer was nothing more than a stack of sheep-shit wrapped up in an Armani Suit, Johnny, the Cane-Toad, Howard was a yes-man to anyone and everyone BUT the absolute worst P.M. of ALL time so far was 'Pig-Iron' Bob Menzies, sold Australian pig-iron ingots to Japan so they could make armaments and bombs to use against Australia and even tried his best to sell the whole country out in WWII, making us ALL expendable to protect and save his beloved England and the Royal Family. What Mr. Happy Clappy Jesus Jockey ScumMO Morrison has in store for us, well only time will tell, BUT, in my opinion, it isn't going to beneficial to anyone EXCEPT religions and the Big Money End of town.

Triphid replies on Dec 4, 2018:

@johnprytz Yep, I agree with you there, so I'll make a prediction that somewhere in around 4.5 to 5.5 BILLION years from now that humungous Thermo-Nuclear Fusion Reactor approx. 93 Millions miles away from our planet ( the Sun) will have converted all of its Hydrogen to Helium, its core will begin to expand exponentially outwards and slowly, but surely envelope Mercury and Venus first before its corona either incinerates the Earth or simply sears off the atmosphere turning Earth into a blackened cinder OR engulfs the Earth as it did with Mercury and Venus. A darned sight better chance of that occurring, probably 100 to 1 % odds on that, than some Invisible, Imaginary Sky Daddy sending down the Seven Horsemen of some totally ridiculous and arcane prophesy of an Apocalypse as found in the Goat-herders Guide to the Universe, aka the Bible.

I agree, I taught my daughter to think for herself from a very young age, never to blindly accept what she was told as being true/factual unless she had first thought about it and decided for herself, BUT, most important of all I taught her to show respect and kindness towards ALL others, even to those who reject you for it, trust in yourself, speak your mind clearly and without animosity and be yourself no matter what. Not wishing to sound boastful, etc, but over the years, both while she was alive and even since her passing, I have been told by innumerable strangers, teachers, friends, etc, who knew her well that " She was a child that any parent could be proud to have raised, a credit to my teachings and a credit to the human race."
