None of your events were bloody impossible.

Neither was 6m of the alleged chosen people being gassed and cremated
either.

Vanishingly unlikely then - akin to the Big Bang 1500000000 years ago and ending up with you typing into your chavphone today.

Presumably you are actually stupid enough believe that
some complete arsehole of a god deliberately organised
the gassing and cremation of 6M jews just to see how
Oscar Schindler would respond to that ? If some god is
that much of a complete and utter arsehole, I wont be
grovelling to it.

After the sinking, Lightoller published a testimony in the Christian Science Journal crediting his faith in a divine power for his survival, concluding: "with God all things are possible".

Yes, but the White Star Line gave him the bum's rush as anyone to do with that ship was persona non grata, so he was sacked in effect anyway.

The number born in a particular month does vary
quite a bit during the year for various reasons,
obviously when more ****ing is going on etc.

Just what they should have done with someone who ****ed

He was a man of honour.

Soon after midnight on Saturday 6 October 1901, Lightoller, accompanied by two shipmates, quietly rowed to the fortress and climbed its tower. They accessed the fort by means of the lightning conductor and hoisted a makeshift Boer flag on the tower.

They loaded a cannon with 14 lb (6.4 kg) of blasting powder and a similar amount of fine-grain powder and rammed in a harmless wad of white cotton waste. They lit a 50 ft (15 m) fuse, and while escaping in desperation, their small rowboat was found to have been holed by rocks.

The three managed to row to shore, run through Government House grounds, and reach Circular Quay by the time the cannon went off with "a huge flash", followed by "a crash like thunder" ... "just as the Post Office clock had struck the hour of 1 a.m."

Lightoller's plan was to fool the locals into believing a Boer raiding party was attacking Sydney and had captured Fort Denison. When the heavy gun went off, the resounding bang blew out windows and woke residents, who leapt from their beds to see what was happening. When a Boer flag was found fluttering in the dawn breeze there was panic.

The local press dismissed the episode as "a foolish and mad brained business", for which the culprits were never found.The only reported damage was the breakage of some windows at Fort Denison. Lightoller's only admission was to the line's Marine Superintendent, "Daddy" Hewitt in Liverpool, who laughed, tore up Lightoller's resignation, and told him to get back to his ship..

Dont believer that they could do that in 15 mins.

Why the **** would a Boer raiding party bother with Fort Denison,
which happens to be a tiny island in Sydney Harbour ?

Bull**** there was. Its a tiny island in Sydney harbour.

The squareheads bombed my workplace, so stuff 'em.

Saltend, East Riding of Yorkshire (just outside of the Hull city boundary) suffered the very first daylight raid on mainland Britain. It happened between 16:40 and 17:00 on 1 July 1940 when a German aircraft dropped its bombs on the oil terminal at Salt End during a €˜nuisance raid in which the aircraft unsuccessfully attacked several barrage balloons.

Shrapnel from the bomb punctured a 2,500 tons holding tank and the leaking petrol caught fire and threatened to cause adjacent tanks to explode. The courageous effort of depot staff and fire brigades prevented a major disaster.

Two firemen, Jack Owen and Clifford Turner, and three Salt End workers, George Archibald Howe, George Samuel Sewell and William Sigsworth, were awarded the George Medal for their bravery.
