Why don’t we grow to be 10 feet tall?

Well was not aware that Abraham consented to Sarah cohabiting with another though its plausible as in agrarian societies even today when a woman does not beget a child a man will let her cohabit with another male in the family.

I was aware of the common origin of both Sarahs progency as well as Hagars and am aware that is the common root of discord among the jews and the arabs who descend from sons of the same patriarch.

Have never understood why man chose animism to explain religion ...man always thought of themselves as better than animals and above them so why did most ancient tribes use animals to portray power is unclear.

Agree totally that  Religion should not be a justification to kill. Nothing should be except possibly self defence.

I never thought abt Judas as a clear cut traitor. He was a mere mortal in fear who chose his need and greed over allegiance to the new teachings of an independent mind. There are many judas around in the world even today. His suicide was because of his awareness of the wrong choice he had made. His spirit knew what was the better and higher calling and he weighed his action against how good it could have been and what resulted through his sad action denying the world a better tomorrow all because of one man.

Pedros denying Jesus is also his personal choice and somewhere inside it seems to disturb him though it may not be necessary because no one knows the truth of the past.

Though many middle eastern countries are like u say thankfully women there are changing and am fortunate to not live there. Am free to chose and grateful for it.

Agree abt the machismo being a learned skill and believe it is an independent mother and mother in law who brings up an independent son

The bible is full of mythologies, contradictions and also many stupidities... Certainly, typical of the primitive of ancient societies... However, there are people who believe that they are superior to condemn others to die in the name of God, it is a mental insanity worthy of mental sanatorium.
Christianity as a religion, took shape when the Roman Emperor Constantine decided to make it the official religion of the Roman Empire, later, the Vatican was converted into a State, thanks to Benito Mussolini... Today the Vatican is a totalitarian State and one of the few states that protects pedophiles... Again the double religious moral manifests.
For the vast majority of people, believing is easier than thinking, and again is a manifestation of the human tendency to go the easy way... And although, unfortunately, the obscurantism of past times remains in force, I think that the freedom inherent in the human being will prevail over religious condemnation and repression.
Again, no one is born believing in God, nobody is born being a machista or misogynist, nobody is born being racist or with stupid prejudices... All that, unfortunately, is taught and learned.

Scientists think that height is one factor in human being that's related to Genetic data. It's vary with region to region. Most people in world are of average height of 5.4 - 5.8. Others are 1ft below it or above it. But hadn't seen one with 10 ft. then it can be concluded that human genetic data cannot allow height above specific range...

Old and bad joke:
"I'm looking for a partner 1ft below 5.4, but they must have a flat head. I need a place to rest my beer."

My wife sometimes jokes about the fact that she is a bit taller than me, but then she gets angry when I remind her that in a few more years, her bones will shrink more than mine, and we will have the same height. LOL
