I don’t think we can understand Pearl Harbour if we didn’t live it. Believe it was like that generation’s 9/11 and the destroying of the Japanese swords likely had a hint of payback to it.

I've been watching these compilations of the Myth Hunters series. Very enjoyable. That said, I love how the people only accept evidence that supports their theories and justifies any anomalies as "mistakes". You need to look at all evidence with a skeptical eye. Not just asking how it supports my pet theory, but also asking how it might not. Question everything.

Re The true cross. My caveat is that why would the Romans have used three languages for the plaque over the cross of a criminal, if they even put a plaque up at all.
@DJ.Michelle2 ай бұрын
So his crimes could be read by all. It is a well established fact that those languages were the most commonly spoken in the area at the time... the first publication of the new testament was written in Greek, for example, because the apostles also spoke it, interchangeably with hebrew, n they were writing to appeal to gentiles, who mostly spoke or at least understood greek... this is not an uncommon thing of the time, n we have contemporary n secondary non Biblical sources n art confirming this.

Katana is curved, but that curve is not such that it gives the blade much easier cutting properties. Of course, it helped, but that is negligible. For the curve to be such to play a vital role in the cutting the katana should be curved much, much more. The curve on the katana comes from the cooling techniques, when the swordsmith plunges the hot sword in the water the metal gets curved. And again, I am not saying that the curve is not helping, but the curve on the katana or Mongol, Turkish, or European sabres is not helping so much in the cutting.
