I'm actually with Clint on this one if he is saying what I think he is saying. The Pharisees were very keen on finding "accidentally" real world problems to adjudicate to show Jesus' shortcomings as a spiritual leader. Setting up such an event to stage a philosophical debate makes a fair bit of sense in that context. towns were pretty fucking small then, Jesus was traveling from place to place at the time. So a woman just happened to have been caught cheating at that place and time in a town of probably less than 5000 people. The woman was likely a pawn in a game to to show Jesus incompetent. If there is any truth to the Gospels, and I will trust them pretty good in those places where the various authors agree ( this being one of them) the stage production failed magnificently.
Edit.
Shit, I really am getting close to moving this topic so for the love of God keep it civil folks.

Well here's one for you
I've lost my job tonight, yep I lost my job. Called in to see my boss and was informed, (that I'm now over qualified for the position held) WTF
Naturally I will take them to court for unfair dismissal
Yet I came home to an answer phone message, "Hello you had an interview with us a couple of weeks ago, we'd like to offer you the position if your still interested" WTF
With all the other stuff going on this is a WTF

Is the new job one you wanted that was better than the other one?
In any event, that is one hell of a rollercoaster ride. Hope it all works out.

Yeah I'd forgotten all about it as heard nothing, definitely better job no more nights and better pay, I'll only be a hospital porter, but I get more time with my son so the sun is shinning
Also should go better for me when I get visits from ss (social services)

Probably could have found out about it in a less stressful way though.
Good to hear, just wish you didn't have to go through the wringer first.

True but a new chapter starts and that's what counts, I've lost enough focusing on the past, now it's looking to the future

Iron, that IS ridiculous. What are they trying to do, riot control? Apparently Navy SEALs in Vietnam used Ithaca M37s with duckbill-type chokes for when they were doing jungle patrols. The problem is that even a pellet of 00 buck is only .33 calbier. What makes a shotgun such an effective weapon is the mass of multiple pellets hitting at the same time. This device drastically reduces that effeciveness and from what I've managed to dig up, the SEALs HATED it. On the flipside, I suppose you could put in the Konami Code and use the shotty to bring down an assault helicopter or two...
