I'm getting tired and I've always been a little lazy, so...

I saw that years ago and it’s a good comeback but it’s not an honest comeback.
I am old school when it comes to science. Politicization of science is a no-no in my world and in my experience.
The standards for science are very high, very tough. If we let the slightest erosion of scientific integrity get a foot hold, we lose out ability to focus on the practical and the beneficial and instead are steered by political winds.
We become Lysenko.
Can’t give an inch, else the agenda takes a mile.
BC = before Christ
BCE = before Christian era
Not a problem. :)
At least that Stinking Bishop cheese hasn’t been around for awhile.
Oh, I just saw your post...
Obviously, I agree.
“I cheddar to think how many cheese jokes are going to emerge.”
IDK but this could be added to the ping list for Gods, Glyphs and “Muensters”
This thread could turn into a real muenster.
Steeenkeeeng Bishop? We don't neeed no Steeenkeeeng Steeenkeeeng Bishop!
BTW, I just loooooove Fontinella. It's not a popular smellin' cheese, but cheese really is supposed to go in the mouth, not the nostrils. It tastes great, and the strength of the flavor/aroma means the pleasure doesn't fade for a long time.
AS bad as limburger cheese? Feta good though huh, I’ll have to try it, perhaps. 8>)
And a GGG Ping to SunkenCiv...

BCE and CE were originated by British Jews in the 19th century, so that they could use the same dates as everyone else without acknowledging something they didn't believe in. It's often (as in the case of this article) a "red flag" that you are dealing witha Jew.
Edom was later called Idumaea. Herod the Great and his family were Idumaeans.
p
Edom was not related to Sodom.
Edomy is not Sodomy.
Apparently, if you dig into it, you have to have your copper ready to commit edomy.
Would that make it a copper clapper caper?
It is good to see Velikovsky still cited today; I have most of his works and have read them, but decades ago. More recently I have seen much criticism of his historical chronologies but no 'proof' that he is amiss.
I remember the days of the first manned moon shots; Velikovsky cautioned NASA to note the position of recovered rock samples so that scientists could determine the magnetic poles of the moon. NASA just laughed about amateurs getting involved in space science; the moon was 4 billion years old and had not had any tectonic activity for countless ages.
When NASA brought the rock samples back to Earth they discovered that they had magnetic properties. . . . Eventually they brought Velikovsky in to NASA for a lecture - but I doubt they paid much attention to him :^/
Would that make it a copper clapper caper?>>
Yes!
But who has a copper clapper these days?
I suspect that instead of a copper clapper caper, the edomy would simply result in Copper Sulphate Clappers!That’s almost as bad as a pillar of NaCl ( Sodium Chloride!).
They had it tough back in the day.
Obviously there was slavery in the ancient world, including the Kdm of Israel. Gold is and was an extravagance that is and was a consequence of the acquisitioin of wealth. Silver was little thought of in Solomon's time (1 Kings 10:21).
Thanks, glad to hear it. It's too bad he didn't publish Ages in Chaos first (which in his words, took the lion's share of the toil), he might have not been just blown off. His reconstruction of ancient history has not only held up, it has been strengthened by new finds since his death almost 40 years ago. It's amusing and bemusing how the fringe authors (I'm acquainted with a bunch of 'em) often don't have any idea what they're talking about regarding what IV actually wrote, and in some cases, they don't have any idea what they themselves are writing about. :^)
