@Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul @bleedingphoenix Dolphins however are one of the only animals who do have sex for their own gratification.
It's probably why the details of their r̶a̶p̶e̶ p̶r̶o̶w̶e̶s̶s̶ mating behavior are nothing short of premium, high octane nightmare fuel.

@Jonaschuzzlewit @MeBigbrain @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul @bleedingphoenix The "big bang," hypothesis was endorsed by the Vatican because they felt it affirmed the biblical story of creation.
It's why I personally believe that a synthesis between science and religion is the best way forward.

Evolution as defined by science is definitely that. However the Almighty Creator did design his species to be adaptable

@bleedingphoenix @Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul Evolutionary success is analogous to revolutionary struggle.
Your species will not survive if it can't adapt to the crushing pressures of natural selection.

@MelGibsonafter4Beers @bleedingphoenix @Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul Evolution is jewish. It seems analogous to a lot of things because it was constructed by shallow thinkers.

@MelGibsonafter4Beers @Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul i wouldn't go that far. Moby Dick's was an unnatural whiteness, like a giant squid or kraken. i doubt the author knew belugas existed.
>White is a color usually associated with innocence and purity, so it is unusual that the white whale should strike such fear in Ishmael and the crew. Throughout the novel, Ishmael describes many things, both good and evil, including religious practices, associated with the color white. He especially focuses on how unusual it is to see something fearsome that is white. He talks about polar bears being terrifying and the whiteness of a human corpse.
>His struggle to understand how white things can be fearsome or threatening when white is usually associated with good mirrors his inability to understand how a god associated with good can allow evil.
Moby Dick's whiteness is significant because how unique it is, the rarity of an albino animal. it's defining to the point of instant recognition.

@Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul @bleedingphoenix Don't confuse Flipper the aquatic rape powerhouse (dolphin) with the gentle Beluga.
Huwhite whales are highly social and extremely cultured marine animals, one
of them was even famously recorded returning a boatgoer's lost cellphone.

@Jonaschuzzlewit @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul @bleedingphoenix Described by the narrator as "God in all his glory," the "whiteness," of the whale symbolizes the deadly, untamable beauty of the natural order.
Captain Ahab was maimed when he attempted to conquer this unstoppable force, which is why he futilely dedicated his entire existence to destroying it whilst gradually losing his sanity.

@MelGibsonafter4Beers @charliebrownau @Jonaschuzzlewit @MeBigbrain @BigDuck @PensiveCowboy @RealRaul @bleedingphoenix I think it's more mud floods and hidden history than dimensional merges. interesting ideas, certainly fun to read about.
