Triphid replies on Nov 10, 2020:

@KWAPELL7 1) I am not your Australian friend, or friend otherwise, 2) IMO, you are a chicken coward since you 'claim' so much BUT refuse, point blank, to prove such claims when challenged to do so, 3) everything you claim can be refuted by the usage of Logic and Basic Reasoning, so basic that, imo, a 10 year old child would be able to cut it shreds without even raise a sweat.

@dahermit Now there IS another thing that I both CANNOT understand nor comprehend with U.S. Politics. Biden IS President Elect is he not? So legally and legitimately HE should be the ACTUAL President as of being declared so YET for some weird, even crazy U.S. ideology, the Orange Crested Dip-shit remains as a very unstable, pseudo-president until January 2021. At least here in Australia we now that the minute the Election result are Officially Declared the previous Head of State is OUT and the New One can take over almost immediately WITH OUT having to wait for a set Date some months away. Imo, the U.S. has, beyond a mere shadow of a doubt the most craziest, screwed Political system in the entire Democratic world.

Triphid replies on Nov 7, 2020:

@JeffMurray Actual 'marriage', as per the system we have today was only 'created' mainly post the rise of Christianity. Ancient Rome had a type of marriage system, 2 types in fact, the first being political alliance based for the Wealthier Classes involving ACTUAL contracts between families, the second being for the Plebs and Prols (Lower Classes) where they could merely dab a bit of soil upon the foreheads of each other and say a an orison of sorts to Juno and Venus, thus being considered as a wedded couple. In Ancient Egypt, however, the couple ONLY needed to spend 3 consecutive nights together within the same house and then would be considered as wedded couple. No contracts, unless the couple were from the Middle/Upper classes of course, No marriage license, etc, just simply married.

Was Jeebus either a closet Homosexual male, a closet bi-sexual OR just as Impotent as his oft proclaimed Heavenly father?

Well, as per the Lore of the Australian Aboriginals, familial lineage is calculated both from the Maternal and Paternal side equally. And, as they also have what is colloquially called an Adoption Lore, by way a NON-Indigenous or Non-Clan/Tribal person can be 'adopted' legally in to another clan/tribe, I am both of the Channel Country peoples and the Myall Creek peoples as well the numerous other ethnic heritages that I carry within my genes, etc. I am Myall Creek people by blood relation and Channel Country people by Lore Adoption.

Yet another totally and utterly FALSE claim here. The original Jewish peoples (Hebrews) were little more than nomadic sheep and goat herders until a Despotic King named Hezekiah rose to power from amidst the Levite clan by literally slaughtering the Head families of the other 12, NOT 11 as claimed also FALSELY, clans/tribes. In an 'effort' to both justify his actions and meld the Hebrews into a nation of sorts, PLUS to, also, justify the 'Road of Warship and Aggressive Hostility, etc, he set them upon he ORDERED, literally, that " A writing of the history of HIS people and subjects SHALL be written thus proclaiming that, THEY shall HAVE only one God, and that they SHALL be the Chosen Peoples of that God and SHALL drive before them and SLAUGHTER ALL who are NOT Hebrews." The name Jews/Jewish was derived much later to depict ONLY those who came from and around the region that encompassed the small township/trading outpost that Hezekiah set up in the home region of Judaea. i.e. now known as Jerusalem. Prior to the Roman conquering of the Middle Eastern region there WAS ONLY the region/country known as Palestine, later the Romans divided it into Judaea and Galilee and set the families of Herod up as satrap Rulers of both regions i.e. Puppet Kings. The word/term/name 'Israel' is derived from a combination of the ancient Egyptian word 'Ish-em-raele' meaning, colloquially " Shit has come again," the Beggars and Thieves (Shit) have arrived," and the Aramaic phrase meaning 'Scorpions and snakes of the Desert."

Yes well given that the Lunar cycle is approx. 29 days, give or take a few decimal points then each year, according to them would be approx.354 days in length meaning for every 3 years that passed they would they would end up being approx. 11.25 days behind actual time and then needing to try and add in another/explain an extra .25 for every fourth year OR they simply ignored the whole thing. Historically, the Ancient Egyptian calendar was far more accurate since it had 365 days per year, made up from 12 months with 30 days, divided into 3 weeks per month with 10 days per week and 5 Inauspicious days spread out across each year, they also calculated in the extra .25 of a day difference that occurred in each of the 3 years adding in an extra day each fourth year thus giving them 6 Inauspicious days each Leap Year as we now call it. When Caesar, Gaius of the Julii, named Caesar to give him his correct name btw, returned to Rome from Egypt after 'settling' the dispute between Cleopatra and her brother Ptolemy, he revised the Roman Calendar system from being Lunar based to Solar based.

DenoPenno comments on Nov 4, 2020:

My take on this is that if Jesus said "man shall not live by bread alone" and then went into some spiritual nonsense it would mean people ate a lot of bread in that time. Sometimes maybe bread only. maybe it's all some people had.

Triphid replies on Nov 4, 2020:

Yes, well eating meats was a kind of 'rarity' for the lower classes, especially in those times such as in Rome, etc. Main foods during those times were mostly bread, usually with a 'dribble' of Olive oil over it, Olives, Porridge and what ever vegetables were available. Though the 'knobs, etc,' ate a greater variety such as Dormice, Songbirds, Sea Urchins, red meats, Goat/Sheep/Cattle Testicles, various other thins such as 'elite' vegetables, etc, etc.

I thank me for my daily bread.

In the old day, bread was made differently and was much more nutritious then what passes for bread these days. Just saying.

@FrayedBear I was NOT making any assumption, I ACTUALLY checked your profile to KNOW that you reside in Ballarat. Plus checked on the Railway Lines in your region as well. Btw, HOW exactly would you expect Freight, etc, to get to Melbourne, etc, IF not via road and rail Transport? Via TRAINED Carrier Pigeons perhaps, especially bred to fly in a kind of 'Stealth Mode' on SILENT wings?

Triphid replies on Nov 4, 2020:

@FrayedBear So, Am I correct in that you reside in Ballarat which is ON the Geelong-Bendigo-Ballarat Line? So why has there NOT been more PUBLIC hew and cry about this 'problem' over the years? Yes, I know houses do NOT have "ears" but none-the-less they MAY be subject to vibrations, FFS, CARS cause vibrations, trucks of ALL shapes and sizes cause vibrations, buses cause vibrations, the winds cause vibrations, the list is almost endless as to the causes of vibrations. Try this for size, IF you will, there is route from the Pitosi Open-cut mine just N.N.E. of Broken Hill, check a map IF you like, there is a road from Pitosi to the Sydney Highway. Trucks carrying ore-bearing rocks, often either B Doubles or B-Triples come out of the Pitosi road, turn to the right onto the Sydney Highway, then travel on until they meet up with the MAIN Street of town (Argent Street), turn LEFT at the Argent St.- Menindee Road junction then continue along Crystal Street, a mainly residential area btw, go on until they turn right again at the intersection of Gaffney St and the South Road Overpass, follow Gaffney St. until it reaches the junction with the Gypsum St. - Sth.B.Hill Overpass turn left again then right at the gates to the Perilya Mines and onto the Crushers at Perilya. All of that passes through and right alongside residential dwellings, these trucks carry an average of BETWEEN 40 and 60 tonnes each at an average of 5-10 times per day during daylight hours and an average of 5-7 times per day during nighttime hours. I have quite a number of good friends/acquaintances who live and reside on that route, PLUS we have the same sort of trucks hauling mineral bearing sands, etc, from the nearby Basin Sands Mining concern that travel, ALSO, through built-up and residential areas but by a slightly different route, these too are either b-Doubles or B-Triples, we ALSO have Interstate Truckies going from the Highway to Adelaide through town via Wlliams St,- Oxide St. - Argent St. then out on to the Sydney Highway and the reverse as well, these trucks are usually semi-trailers with either a second or even a third 'DOG/Pup' trailer in tow as well. Oh, and NOT forgetting the Sheep/Goat/Cattle/ Wool Bale/ Stock Feed trucks, also a semi-prime mover with at least 1 or 2 trailers ( double deckers) btw, in tow that go through here regularly. IF memory serves correct, the Rail line you are complaining about WAS built a long time BEFORE Ballarat grew and expanded to the size it is now. Hence, they would have lain down the tracks, etc, on the best possible ground and sub-surface they could find since ONLY idiots lay tracks where there is NO solid sub-surface present, i.e. soft sand and soft sub-soil. As to "hitching cars, etc, to the curb" due to these supposed vibrations that MAY...

Triphid replies on Nov 3, 2020:

@FrayedBear Oh FFS, how EXACTLY do trains blowing their horns impact on and cause damage to houses? Here we have a MAIN Interstate Freight and Passenger train line, 2 Marshalling Yards, A Locomotive Storage and Running Repair Facility, a Marshalling Yard for Ore wagons from the Mines running right through the town. Most Locos that go through here are the latest, biggest and most powerful in Australia, i.e. Supercharged and Turbo-charged either v-12 or v-16 cylindered Diesel-Electrics. The Freight trains haul anywhere between 5,000 and 7,000 tonnes per train. FYI the rail tracks are built upon a bed known as an 'cushioning layer made up of compacted soil with a thick layer of Ballast ( crushed stone about fist sized) to reduce or stop any vibrations from the train itself. LAW states, also, that ANY train approaching a LEVEL Crossing that is NOT either fitted with Boom Gates or Crossing Lights MUST blow its horn to WARN traffic of its impending approach. Plus a train MUST sound its horn when approaching a Railway Station EVEN IF said Station has what are called 'Block Signals,' in-built track sensors, fitted to the rails. Each Locomotive weighs an AVEERAGE of 130-150 NETT tonnes ( dry weight), add in another 5-6,000 litres of Diesel Fuel, 3-400 litres of Lubricating Oil in the Diesel Engine and sump. They travel at around 90-100 kilometres per hour on the open ( between Stations, etc, ) lines with 5-7,000 tonnes of Freight and wagons pushing from behind, a normal Freight Train takes approx. 2.5 kilometres at FULL speed to come to COMPLETE halt with ALL braking systems, i.e. the Air operated Train ( Locomotive and Wagons brakes), the Air operated Locomotive Brakes PLUS the Electro-Dynamic Brakes literally slammed into the Full ON position. When a train hits a car on a Level Crossing, no matter how soon or hard the ENTIRE Braking systems have been applied the car, its occupants, etc, WILL be shredded and scattered EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE 99.99% of the time and IT IS one VERY bloody, horrible, nasty MESS to say the very least, trust me on that because I have attended many a Level Crossing where Car versus Train has resulted in DEATH and Destruction. The first I ever attend was in June 1981, where an Insurance Assessor in a new Commodore was hit on a Level crossing,, the car was literally shredded and spread out over a radius of about 250 yards from impact, it took us 3 hours to find every piece possible of his body which mixed in with pieces of his shredded car and I DO MEAN PIECES of his body btw.. His abdominal organs were found dangling from the branches of a tree some 20 yards away from the impact. So, I hope you MAY just see that a bit of noise from Train Hooters is far, far better than having blood, guts and bits of meat and bones spread ...
