Christ. Let's leave God and Jesus out of this. I say, everyone can believe whatever they want, but once it starts affecting other people's lives, they need to keep it to themselves - as was stated above, religion starts wars (among other things). As far as I know, God does not want war, so talk about it if you want, but don't tell people they ought to find God. If a person is inherently good then they're good. If a murderer believes in God, they're a murderer. Done. The end.
But wow. This woman's amazing. I'll keep the ambien thing in mind though - doctors don't know everything (I know some people who just got accepted to med. school). Afterall, they're only human.
(And I'm all for keeping loved ones alive forever on pure technology, but unless you have money, sometimes there's no choice. I suggest if you care, churches start collecting to help pay for the costs of keeping people alive on machines. It's actually pretty expensive after a while... unfortunately.)
Though! If you have a stroke and go into a coma, is that or is it not what God wants? Should you interfere with it?
Food for thought.
I'm not going to read the responses. Just putting it out there.
At least there was a reason for the shuttle delays - if I were attacked by a spider that big, I'd need at least 1, no make that 2 weeks of recuperation time.
Yeah, even with a 1ms pulse time, a microwave pulse strong enough to disable a car's engine from appreciable distances will harm people. Even if the rays only penetrate the skin, in 10 years, that's skin cancer.
Approximately 1/3 the weight of your feces comes from the cell bodies of bacteria living inside you. Mean daily stool weight is 349±131g in humans, meaning that each year you defecate 127 kilograms of feces. Of that 127 kilos, 42 kilograms are solely the bacteria that died, living inside of you.
If that much bacteria comes out, how much is growing in your body?
Doesn't say how this gene affects cognition. What good is not getting cancer if you have the IQ of a toilet?
Gene therapy and research is very important and powerful, but if you perturb a complex system of any kind (in this case, the genome) you WILL ALWAYS get unexpected and possibly terrible results.
That said, good for them. They just got funding forever...
...Or we could mail them stuff and they could get our addresses and give them with our names to big poppa RIAA, and use them as admissions of copyright infringement.
Good for you, unidentified Polish teen!
I also ate a whole cow. Whole.
Almost...

Darwin anyone?

I'm never going to see it, but hilarious.
Good for her.
