Once there were two ...

“Once there were two moons in the sky, but one wandered too close to the sun and cracked from the heat. A thousand thousand dragons poured forth, and drank the fire of the sun. That is why dragons breathe flame. One day the other moon will kiss the sun too, and then it will crack and the dragons will return.”

― George R.R. Martin (A Game of Thrones)

Once there were two brothers. God loved only one. Why? The reason was never given - until thousands of years later by men who wanted to defend God and started being 'creative' in their explanations.

Surely there must be a reason, where some naughty people even suggested God was been a meat lover and favoured the brother who was a shepherd (with lots of sheep and thus mutton and lamb chops) over the other, an agricultural farmer who could only offer grain, fruits and veggies.

Kaytee has an answer here to explain God's so-called unfair favoritism, wakakaka.

Yet an interesting mystery of a story about another two brothers here, wakakaka.

Once there were two military men who were each accused of violating the law (different laws as their case were not the same).

Even before they have been tried by the court (different courts), one has been found guilty but the other found innocent. But then again, one has been found innocent while the other guilty.

Surely there must be a reason, wakakaka.

What about you telling me why? Wakakaka.

Once there were two men who went up to the Temple to pray: one was a Pharisee, the other a tax collector. 

The Pharisee stood apart by himself and prayed, ‘I thank you, God, that I am not greedy, dishonest, or an adulterer, like everybody else. I thank you that I am not like that tax collector over there. I fast two days a week, and I give you one tenth of all my income.’

But the tax collector stood at a distance and would not even raise his face to heaven, but beat on his breast and said, ‘God, have pity on me, a sinner!’

I tell you,” said Jesus, “the tax collector, and not the Pharisee, was in the right with God when he went home. For those who make themselves great will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be made great.”  - from Luke 18:10-14

The reason is the people who wrote the biblical Book of Luke didn't like Jews (Pharisees), wakakaka.

Once there were two muftis who commented on Lassie. One said ulama should not bullshit (kaytee's words, wakakaka) like a dog with its tongue hanging out, that touching a dog was haram when it's not haram, while the other said that doggie event has made fun of ulama which should not be tolerated as it would undermine their ulama authority (er ... yang amat alim, was it haram or not?).

Surely there must be a reason, wakakaka.

What about you telling me why? Wakakaka.

Once there were two women. One loves handbags while the other loves hand-gloves, wakakaka. One has been reputed to coach her hubby in his duties while the other is known to consider hers as 'God's gift to the people', wakakaka.

Surely there must be a reason, wakakaka.

What about you telling me why? Wakakaka.

Once there were two men, wakakaka. One was said to have once gone to Port Dickson for a wee bit of 'jolly', wakakaka, while the other was said to have gone the 'other way', wakakaka again.

Surely there must be a reason, wakakaka.

What about you telling me why? Wakakaka.

Once there were two daughters, wakakaka. To end this post, glad to say both have bravely backed the 'Get to know Rin Tin Tin' event. Well done, sweeties.
