    A perosn in history giving birth as a virgin? Not a religious question. An odds question

    The correct answer to this question would be unveiled the day aftet tommorrow to paddy power so they would have time to formulate their odds

    Whats odds would they give you and what odds would that be equilalent to?

    They wouldn't quote you odds on that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭MilesMorales1


    They'd tell you to stop wasting their time and **** off.

    If they had to quote you odds

    i would say that they would give you good odds and take your money.
    it would be up to you to prove that said person is pregnant and that all the internal membranes are intact. you can break that membrane without any sex

    Bookmakers do not have to quote odds.

    what about artificial insemination?

    Technically a virgin birth is possible.

    In my scenario,There are witnesses to verify whether Mary gave birth miraculously by non sex or not

    By constantly monitoring her?

    WTF is non sex anyway?

    So you are dictating terms about a ludicrous bet you want from a bookie?

    “What odds would you give me if I said someone called Mary would have a virgin birth?”

    “Nothing. Fcuk off.


    “There will be witnesses so we will know if it’s non sex or not”.

    “Fcuk off”

    “Immaculate conception, innit?”

    “Fcuk off”.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,401 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Immaculate conception

    What race is that running in?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,613 ✭✭✭server down


    Immaculate conception

    That’s wrong too.not the virgin birth.

    Similarly you could walk in and ask for odds that we're the only intelligent life in the universe.
    The amount of stars (most with planets in orbit) starts with 1, and is followed by x34 zeros.

    They'd give you the same answer, *$^@ off, and have a merry new year...

    ... But actually this is a short market:
    10/1 for Trump to make a statement during 2018
    'confirming without doubt the existence of alternative, intelligent life beings from another planet'.


    For those of a 'challenged nature' the end of the world odds are available 100/1 for 2017, or 500/1 for 2018.
    If you win they'd probably void their terms of business by paying out, well due to lack of shop existence.

    Do they have some worrying insider knowledge that the world ending in the next eight days is five times more likely than in the whole of next year? Or was that a typo?

    They wouldn't. (full stop)
    A market from 2017yrs ago can't be created/re-opened.

    Before 2050 some sort of quantum entanglement jizz teleportation to a lady vessel may well be possible, but may require 5th dimensional gravity field tomfoolery.

    Simply 8 days vs 365 days market event, good value for 2018.

    They'd give you great odds then laugh while counting your money.

    But Waht if in my scenario, the answer was given 2morrow, and paddy power were given the option to speculate. .

    What if you self identified as a virgin because the patriarchy labels you deflowered because you had sex?
