Is this a midas touch kinda thing? The human body is 60% water π€
Are you saying water made water into water with a bit of alcohol?
"Water to wine" was a metaphor for sneaking it into the party.
Eventually it would just become brandy.
Jesus can spike a girl's drink from across the room.
He gets that from his dad.
It was probably kombucha.
Can he put actual kombu (as in Japanese kelp) into kombucha?
Can the space man make port?
Only if he concentrates
I want to make a pun but I still can't figure one out.
Yes. The power to do literally anything would allow one to do this.
Can he create a stone that is not liftable and then proceed to lift it?
The easiest answer to this is yes, he could create a stone he couldn't lift. And then he could lift it anyway.
Unironically the question by witch many Christian faiths differ: does God needs abide to the rules of logic or not?
For the Roman Catholic, yes, for Calvinists and a bunch other (ok, many other but I'm not an expert), no.
Calvanists the ones that say since god is all powerful there can be no free will/everything is decided donβt apply logic?
Answer: whatever causes the person you're arguing with to throw their hands up and storm off more exasperated..
No, not really, it's mostly a matter of power.
The Church itself is rooted in the idea that there are autorities on matter of faith and they adopted the Platonical Agostinean idea that faith is empowered by reason. Reason being a valid tool means you have experts that reasoned a lot about religion and people that know less and needs to be taught, ultimately by the Pope.
The "other" side tends to reject authorities, and take the words of the bible as sobjected to personal interpretation or, to an extent, make it into some sort of magical object that the faithfull subjects itself to, without questions. Accepting the contradictions, the illogal parts, are what that kind of faith is about because to question (throught reasoning) God is a Sin.
Probably, but he had to leave something for bored celibate monks to do. There are worse callings than to devote a lifetime to finding all manner of ways to fortify wines.
Water + Jesus = Wine
Wine + Jesus = Brandy
Brandy + Jesus = Twice-distilled Brandy? Cooking sherry? Idk
I choose to believe at this point, Jesus got so drunk he forgot to try it a third time.
Is this really the blood of Christ? Man that guy must have been wasted 24/7
bro do you got any snacks to go with this
You can have one tasteless cracker.
All I can offer is some fish and bread.
It's all you can eat though, so there's that
"And on the third day, there was a wedding in Cana. Jesus' mother was there. When the wine was drunk, Jesus' mother said to him, 'We're out of wine.' 'Bruh... That's a big yikes. But why do I care?', replied Jesus.
Jesus mother instructed the servants, 'you just do whatever he tells you no matter how stupid it sounds.' Jesus sighed and turned to the servants saying, ' Okay. You see those jars? Nope. Not that one. The big ones. Yeah. Those big ones over there. Go fill them up with water. All the way up. Then take some of the water and give it to the host."
The servants were more than a little skeptical but shrugged and did as they were told. When the host of the wedding feast tasted the water, it had become wine. And the host exclaimed, "Damn! That is some good shit. Where did you get that from?" And the servants were amazed because they knew from where the wine came.
And the servants implored Jesus, 'Do it again! No, wait. Can you make something stronger this time?"

No, because then the ATF will show up and shoot him.
Certainly any dogs nearby RIP
I mean, given that JesΓΊs would not only be a brown hippie moonshiner, but also probably a damn Mexican furriner to boot, he'd be lucky if they didn't lay siege to the whole neighborhood, Waco-style.
In the Bible they wanted to kill him many times but he always slipped away. He wasn't arrested until he gave himself to the authorities. The ATF wouldn't catch him if he didn't want to be caught. But I'm sure they'd destroy lots of people, animals and property regardless.
Making water into wine was not something all that special, it used to basically be a concentrate that you would then add to water to consume. Shoutout to the history of Rome podcast. So he could make more and more deluted wine with more water but it wouldn't become more concentrated.
Which podcast is that? You piqued my interest, but there seem to be a lot of podcasts about the history of Rome.
"The history of Rome podcast" is literally the name.
I may have found it. Cheers!
Late one evening a boy and his father were accosted by a mugger. The traumatic moment unlocked some kind of latent power within the boy. Frantically he tried to intervene, skin touched skin, and the assailant's blood turned to wine, fatal. But not before the cretin dealt a terminal blow to the father. And that night that boy became the hero we all know, Jesus Christ.
No it is impossible for God to do that.
Yeah, I rolled a d20 and can confirm. Wow, critical miss!
I wonder what the azeotrope for magically created alcohol is.
If he indeed turned water into wine and made all things, why would he need to recurse as if he can't get it right the first time?
because he works in mysterious ways of course.
Mmmm pass me more of that wine powder
Wouldn't it be an alcoholic paste?
You just have to find another bodily fluid with the same color as the target alcohol.
So if I'm looking for Baileys...
That about as close to Baileys as I can get without getting my eyes wet
