The method of dating? The subjects were identified by their dental records, in what can only be called a heroic act of translation. ;’)
I don’t find it amusing. I find it stupid, insulting, and ignorant.
And while I’m on it, who is to say that the Garden of Eden is not a metaphor for a womb? Furthermore, who is to say there was ONLY ONE womb? Isn’t the ability to reason the gift from G-d that differentiated men from beasts? Why does there seem to be so little of it?
Or grandpa...
I am my own Grandpa
Many, many years ago
When I was twenty three,
I got married to a widow,
Pretty as could be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter
With flowing hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
And soon the two were wed.
This made my dad my son-in-law
And changed my very life.
Now my daughter was my mother,
For she was my father’s wife.
To complicate the matters worse,
Although it brought me joy.
I soon became the father
Of a bouncing baby boy.
My little baby then became
A brother-in-law to dad.
And so became my uncle,
Though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle,
Then that also made him brother
To the widow’s grown-up-daughter
Who, of course, was my step-mother.
Father’s wife then had a son,
Who kept them on the run.
And he became my grandson,
For he was my daughter’s son.
My wife is now my mother’s mother
And it makes me blue.
Because, although she is my wife,
She’s my grandma too.
If my wife is my grandmother,
Then I am her grandchild.
And every time I think of it,
It simply drives me wild.
For now I have become
The strangest case you ever saw.
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am my own grandpa!
