There's a pretty legitimate-sounding theory that the word for "carpenter" could just as easily have been translated as "construction worker" which would've been more about rocks and stuff. Which seems more likely for the time & place, and also explains why he used like a million rock-related metaphors but basically zero woodworking metaphors.

And also how he managed to roll away that stone. E: I'm now picturing Jesus rising and thinking "thank me the apostles couldn't afford a decently constructed tomb, I don't fancy spending the next three days in here".

In my retelling of the story Jesus was entombed in the cave still on the cross and when he came to he used the crossbar as a fulcrum and the long piece as a lever to move the boulder to teach us all the value of understanding how simple machines can make work easier.

Thomas doubted until he saw the holes in Jesus' hands. Jesus said unto him "And this is why we don't gently caress around with the powder-actuated nail gun." E: slightly disappointed that the BBcode color tag doesn't seem to work.

Username/post combo, also lol we are so hosedCarbon dioxide posted:
Malachite_Dragon posted:Sorry you couldn't button mash your way through the Additions. Dragoon is Good. LoD tries to do some interesting stuff with its items, but since you are limited to 32 consumables -- not 32 stacks, not 32 of each item, 32 individual items including healing and utility consumables -- you'll be using those sparingly outside of bossfights. It has spells, but -- setting aside how anemic the spell list is in general -- they're only accessible in dragoon mode, and mana is hard to restore, so those are also a mostly-only-in-boss-fights thing. So the vast majority of the time you are just going to be spamming basic attacks in combat -- or using Defend, which doesn't just reduce incoming damage but also restores some health, giving you a (very, very tedious) alternative source of healing to stretch out your powerful but extremely limited supply of healing items. Additions could have made this less boring, maybe even engendering a Xenoears-style system where there's no such thing as "a basic attack", constantly switching up your moves based on what you're fighting; but you can't switch them in-combat, so in practice you're going to be seeing the same ones over and over again. The only things that differentiate them are the damage bonus and the SP gain, so even when you can switch them, the only choice is between "most damage" or "most power", or sometimes "the one I'm still leveling up that will become the new most damage/power" -- and every character eventually learns one that's strictly better than all of their others, so hope you like using that and only that for the rest of the game. None of them have interesting side effects that make them worth considering apart from the raw damage/SP numbers, either, although some of the names make me wonder if they were meant to have elemental affinities or status effect riders or the like earlier in development and that feature got cut. It feels like a game that tried to do something different, but most of the things they did different just didn't work very well.

This isn’t a funny forum quote, just Mark 3, NIV.quote:20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. 21 When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.” Jesus knows a thing or two about B&E.

My favorite thing about the bible is the one apostle talking poo poo. John makes sure everyone knows he outran Peter to the tomb. No real need to know that detail, just tossing it in there to let people know Peter ain't poo poo at running.
