He specifically walked on water during a storm, and assuming he wasn't violently moving up and down, he was moving independently of the water, so i expect he would stand still

If he didn't get affected by the moving water, does that mean he's not walking on water but on air? He's a skywalker.

Probably closer to a Cleric than a Wizard

Well, Jerry and George are Jewish so it still makes sense they'd be puzzled.

"if a Palestinian were walking on water, our weapons could easily target them. Next question."

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In case you wonder why the Israeli government can get away with calling all of their detractors anti-semites, it's because of morons like you saying anti-semitic things like this.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Nothing antisemitic about what I said, you just didn't like it.

Sure, Great Mind.

Explain how implying these two American Jews would be happy gunning down Palestinians, very clearly just because they're Jewish and therefore Israeli in some way with the "our" line, isn't anti-semitic?

Especially in this thread that had absolutely no reason to go there?

I'd say this will be good, but we both know you're just going spew the shit that fills your entire being all over the floor.

??? Conflating Jews with Israel isn't anti-semetic?

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago

They aren't puzzled because they don't know the answer. They are staring at him wondering what's wrong with him.

It's been a while since I've been to church. I thought the storm calmed when Jesus appeared?

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 10 months ago

Jesus should totally be able to river surf.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 9 points 10 months ago

I mean do you think if you stood Jesus on a bucket of water and moved the bucket would he move with with the water or only when he comes in contact with the walls of the bucket. Simple test whether he is water locked or just hovering.

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

Conveyor belt, obviously. Not moving would produce forces on the feet that, if not balanced, would lead to a torquing motion, causing Jesus to spin.

Depends on the strength/type of water walk spell used. Some Amazonian tribes specifically use the 'conveyor belt' method to travel quickly down stream for trade, but only use the stationary method if it makes sense to do so.

Is the river frozen? ;)
