    Listened through a history of rome podcast and learned an interesting thing where win was basically like a concentrate so you would mix it with water to drink. Aka. water -> wine.

        I hope not, because port is my wine of choice and I would be like, “fuck you, Jesus. I wanted to drink that!”

      Using reasoning like this to remove the supernatural from the Bible rather defeats the entire point, doesn’t it? If Jesus just made Gatorade like anyone else would, that’s a rather unremarkable thing to describe. Hardly worth committing to writing.

        1. I am sure there are countless mundane tasks that are pretty unremarkable.

        2. Does the Bible really have a point? I guess other than brainwashing masses?
