no, the majority would be those who did not vote

you are mixing up ideas,

total population 60m

around 25m are registered to vote, around 11m voted for the ANC

so show me how you get a majority using those numbers
Because those that did not vote basically gave their approval of the current party ruling. if they were unhappy with it they would've voted to try make a change, therefore if they don't vote it's a vote for the current status quo. So technically why people say if you don't vote you cannot moan, as you're the one happy with the status quo and not voting is your vote for it to remain.

so the idea of a quorum is irrelevant to you then

also voting for change is not necessarily voting for something that is correct, that line of thinking is a bit of a strawman

If you've bothered to vote you've lent yourself to the quorom to let your voice be heard, if you've not than you're happy with how things are.
Welcome to democracy, no one ever said voting for change is correct.

Researchers Discover What Became of a Lost Continent, Now Hidden Under the Adriatic Sea

MADELEINE CARLISLE

September 25, 2019

Researchers with Utrecht University in the Netherlands have uncovered what became of a lost continent that broke off from Africa and wedged itself under Europe, creating mountain ranges that span across 30 different countries from Spain to Iran.

“What we have studied is the very complex history of the geology of the Mediterranean region,” Utrecht professor Douwe van Hinsbergen, the lead researcher on the project, tells TIME. Researchers had already known for decades that a continent created the mountain ranges of Europe and the Middle East. “What that continent might have looked like, however, was until now estimated with rather schematic cartoons,” van Hinsbergen says in an email. With the help of modern software, a clearer picture of that hidden continent emerged.

Not going to click the link, can someone show me the video where RD is in shock?
TLDR version. Harry potter believers are excited because HP book mentions new york and since new york existed as we now know, they claim that all HP book miracles are true.

Which ones?
RD's books lack a certain gravitas. Among the religious here, there is a general disappointment about RD's books as it doesn't contain slavery, foetus killing, genocide, slaugher & rapes, gay killing, daughter sacrifice, cannibalism and so on.

I am still waiting to see this video of a shocked RD...

But that said, since we are using express.co.uk for revelations on religion, this must also be true...

Christianity is a baseless religion that was designed by the Roman empire to justify slavery and pacify the citizens, according to controversial Biblical scholar Joseph Atwill.

"This is clear evidence of a deliberately constructed pattern.
Doesnt the same kind of reasoning in this article "debunk" ALL of written history though?

Technically, no. Only the south-eastern parts of what is now Europe were lower. At least the way I understand it. Maybe eastern parts of continental Europe as well?

But why stop there? Maybe Atlantis did not sink but was moved under Africa or something..... this is a pandora's box of rabbit holes.

It's BS, the earth was only created 6000 years ago.
So? The actual shift of the rogue continent (if it did happen) could have been either fast or slow.... in fact fast is probably more probable for something small slipping under something large if you think about it.
