I’m not really sure what Thunderf00t was trying to do, but the video illustrates how difficult it can be to talk with those who beliefs are firmly mired in the fantastic. Apparently, by talking louder and repeating the same phrase over and over it becomes “more right” than if only said once.
The familiar religious dodge, not to mention blasphemy, was at front and centre as the older woman not only told Thunderf00t he was wrong, but told him that her interpretation was *right*. We should talk to her more as it appears she does know the mind of god…
Or perhaps she clings to her interpretations of biblical fact because they happen to support her demonstrably banal and offensive take on the magic story known as christianity.

Apparently Tfoot is a sucker for punishment. Not sure if his point is that he can remain calm in the face of outrageous ignorance or not.

As he is mobile at the moment, this is just a preview clip as he could not get the entire gigabyte interview to upload at a reasonable rate. I would have to agree with you Bleat, at the moment it looks like an exercise on how to suffer fools without defenestrating them for their own good and the sake of sanity.

I honestly couldn’t watch more than 30 seconds of this clip. Doesn’t matter which side you choose, if the roles were reversed I’d still think the person acting that way is a total ass.

I know it’s only me, but if you have read any classical literature, people of the same gender routinely slept together and there was no sexual innuendo . It was a common practical solution to times when there were not enough beds. When people were poorer than they are now . Travelers were throw into beds with strangers in old country inns in medieval times. With the primitive heating then , it could be the only way to keep warm .
I am just guessing that it must have happened in biblical times .
