What I mean is like for example, a person having “gravitational pull” or someone making a “quantum leap” makes no sense to anyone who knows about physics. Gravity is extremely weak and quantum leaps are tiny.
Or “David versus Goliath” to describe a huge underdoge makes no sense to anyone who knows about history, because nobody bringing a gun to a sword fight is going to be the underdog but that’s essentially what David did.
I’m looking for more examples like that.
I went to catholic grade school and got lessons in the bible often enough
I have not read the bible in probably 30 years but what I remember is that the fight was more like the sheriff coming to town to knock some heads. Goliath was the monster enforcer who was able to just clear the room. Like movie star brute and shit. He was coming to kick some ass and David was just one of the guys in the right place at the right time and with a nasty sling talent. The sling wasn’t really considered a deadly weapon by anyone. David stepped up and one shot the mother fucker in front of EVERYONE
Yeah no, the sling was considered a very very deadly weapon back then. That’s the thing. And that’s not what bible school would want to portray. But the sling as a weapon was pretty much the Magnum Revolver of those days.
How did no one think a weapon that hurls a speeding rock at your head isn’t deadly lol
The giant that decided to not bring a helmet?
