I reserve judgment. Obviously need repetition and consistency before it is a thing. Keep in mind again that the mind clearly plays a role in the placebo effect. And state of mind seems to be instrumental in some dying and others living. Hey i get it. If anything FEELS like woo it is…USE YOUR MIND TO HEAL THOSE WOUNDS!

Check out this article. Sounds nuts to think that focusing on the pain may induce healing. Instinctively we want diversion or pain relief. But then again fooling the individual thinking they are getting the good stuff sometimes helps.

If a poll were taken what percent would have awareness of the gender apartheid in Afghanistan and the misery/suffering caused by Islam? Ok, I will guess. 1 to 2 percent depending on demographics.

Yes, Israel is disproportionately represented in scientific and technological innovation relative to its population and size. I would say that Israel produces more high-level scientific and technological output than you would expect from its population, land area, or even it…[Read more]

Zionist ice cream. Zionist cheese. Zionist milk.

They must. They must. They must prove they’re value to justify their existence.

It is very odd. Really is.

Made me think of it as an in to a sci fi novel. A very contemporary one in which the we’re here is revealed to a few.

I was answered. A voice appeared as though i were some 8th century prophet. “Hello Schlomo. How can i help you?”

Yes, it is fair and accurate to characterize microbes as evolving in response to antibiotics. Antibiotics create a strong selective pressure. Microbes with random genetic mutations that grant resistance survive. They then pass those helpful traits to their offspring, leading to evolutionary adaptation.How…[Read more]

I’ve heard lab grown meat is served in restaurants in Singapore. Still a process that needs to be refined. Carbon emissions will be significantly lower i think. Land requirements obviously far lower. The cells still need food so i guess that and energy are required. How much compared to animal farms? No can say.

Not only would orthodox…[Read more]

I don’t know of any atheist Popes or do i but certainly have read about atheist preachers. It is a lucrative gig. Might even do some good if the grifter atheist fesses after the fact. Naa. It probably would not.

Was thinking about reading the Metamorphosis again. So cool that great literature is available at a click.

I liked a lot of different meat. Not veal. And when i found it what it was i cringed. Maybe it is a reaction like ‘the women, the children’. What about men? Why don’t men count? Even old men?

Jake, did you hear about the fact that they have a shit ton of drones? …and it may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to do enough damage to get the job done.

Here is some of their good work. And only 7 of 10 women report being mental or very mental. Human rights need not be extended to those who are born into a death cult.
