Sulphur and the Devil. Good combination.
I think they could had done had flagellation sound and made it work if they really tried to.
How do you know what the smell was? Farting seems like a reasonable enough explanation no gag intended!
etrigan69, nice clip find, but seeing played over and over is too much me man. Pls someone back me up here!
Well I guess ignorance is an ugly thing we like to deny. Personally I think its a good thing if children today are more sexually educated than previous generation. I think any kind of education is a positive thing for children. I suppose it could be possible she legitimately didn’t understand but I should hope by 14 she would. As for the bit about talking to anyone in their 40’s, sure, people may had been more naive in the past, but I think there’s also a tendency to look at the past through shaded glasses. I had a bizarre conversation with a customer once doing door-to-door sales (a job that I incidentally didn’t excel at). We were talking about crime and he was furious about how much the crime rate had increased (something not supported by statistics) I told him that I thought there was more crime when the economy was poor and he said that his mother lived through the Great Depression and there was no crime then. WHAT?! No crime during the Great Depression? What planet was he living on?? Also didn’t the great depression trigger World War II? Look at all the crimes that took place during that conflict. I just don’t understand how people that are able to thrive in this world, own homes etc. can have such a distorted view of the past!
Jen: What kind of naive world do you live in? Were you around 30-years ago? Children knew about sex back then too! You are too easily buying into this bullshit we are constantly being sold about the puritanism of children that is nothing but a load of garbage.
As for her religious beliefs, does she not wear a cross around her neck, which could be a clue. Let me know I really can’t remember off hand.
The difference between Supernatural Science and other shows I’ve seen on the shroud is that it didn’t go in with the assumption the shroud was real. Just about ever show tries to glamorize it by emphasizing every detail that they think will make it look like a miracle no matter how silly and often make the unproven assumption that it could not be done with techniques of the times.
Supernatural Science however was the only show I’ve seen that went at the thing with a logical scientific approach and asked some good questions that I have wondered myself but were ignored by other documentaries. For example, why is the image flat? If you cover a model in paint and wrap it in a shroud the way people claim the shroud was “photographically” taken and then open it, you will see the paint image is stretched like you’d expect rather than being like a photograph taken at a distance. Furthermore it looked to them like the shroud was simply painted, and then folded in half to create a symmetrical image. I thought the the show was very good, although insulting to the intelligence of true shroud believers.
Have you ever seen a show on TV called Supernatural Science. They did an episode where they duplicated the Shroud of Turin almost exactly with techniques that existed in medieval Europe.
Fatherbowdern, don’t waste your time with Media player there are much better applications out there for that!
