That is because it is the way in which all matter behaves when it is unobserved.

Mmmm not quite. An unobserved book will always be where you left it, because the uncertainties of its constituent particles average out. Once you’re dealing with systems with 10s of atoms, quantum no longer really applies in the way we think it does.

But yes, for subatomic particles, that’s how it works! Bit crazy.

You do realise of course that ultimately, a book is made up of subatomic particles right?

A bit cliché but:

What are we?

I don’t mean what is the meaning of life, or what are humans, but what is this universe? We have a theory of what it was before the big bang and much has been explained about the universe around us, but there is still plenty of unexplained and unexplored stuff. What brought the existence of all the condensed matter pre big bang in to existence? I don’t know the right question to ask because it’s unfathomable, but I’d just like to know what this existence is. Is this it? Are we one of many alternatives? Are we a thought?

It’s my favourite headfuck.

As a record of kings and wars, I guess. Sort of a nationalist “us Jews are GREAT” mission statement. Although it is clearly stated in there that “the book” was found lying in the Temple AFTER the return from Babylon, about 600BC. Earlier than that we don’t have.”

Then new bits got added around the time of Jesus, but most of them were taken out and burned about AD 300.

Then King James insisted on a Bible in English, and after executing a few people who hadn’t written down his dictation, we have the current version. There WAS an earlier attempt at a Bible in English, called the Lollard’s Bible, but I am unaware of any copies surviving little things like the Inquisition, Reformation, etc etc etc.

I would also like to see the original scrolls before they where manipulated and see how much of it was manipulated.

Good job somebody buried a set in Nagh Hammadi, which was dug up in the 1950s. Most of it is readable, and 95% of the original lost texts are now readable.

It’s not exactly women’s lib but for the time of the Roman Empire it was pretty radical;-

Dead Sea scrolls I’m not so familiar with, and as the Vatican stole the entire collection before publishing dribs and drabs, I doubt it’s complete.

I’d ask Michael Barrymore what really went down on that fateful night

I’m not sure if time&space exists for animals, so maybe instead of going through 12 hours of labour like a human , they maybe only have a mere 12 seconds of pain before spitting the bubbies out.

They don’t, and we didn’t use to either. It’s mostly belief and expectation after being told by countless people that it is the worst pain that you can ever go through. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a bit worse for humans due to our abnormally large craniums (to host our large brains).

I can honestly that the pain in childbirth is nothing mental and completely physical.
I went into it quite positive and stupidly thought the drugs would numb me well enough to get through it..I also have quite a good pain threshold.

If I was to make a scale of pain I have experienced it would be:

Tattoo on bone: 2 to start and down to a 1
Horse standing on ankle: 2
Bone broken all the way through: 3.. maybe 5 for a few seconds when in jolts.
Childbirth 10..and that was in bursts from an hour in. After 3 hours it was a 10 constant.

The pain was so bad I couldn’t hear what people were saying to me…I was delirious.

Not that I want to put woman off, if anything your mental thoughts makes it easier not worse…at least you know you are working towards something.
To be honest I thought experience pain on the level in its own way was liberating.

I’ve been with older women who are family friends who sat and dissed one woman for saying childbirth was the worst pain ever as they’d had kids and it wasn’t that bad. Guess it’s down to the person.
