    Yes, but now they can make more money off it while whittling away the responsability for our bodies. The less people understand their bodies, the less responsability they take for it's proper functioning, the more pills for everyone, and more money for the corps!

    Just drink kefir.

    How dumb is our whole society? There are mechanisms in the body to take care of these things, just fix/use the mechanisms.

    Fricken allopathic crap.

    Or you could just drink kefir and cure your ulcer.

    Science sucks big time especially applied to medicine. Allopathy sucks.

    The big question which was never answered is why are the bacteria there in the first place? There has been absolutely no new knowledge gained, he just discovered a better bandaid.

    When you sell fashion items to posers, posers will always buy new ones after the old ones are scratched.

    What, you honestly think they're dumb? It's pure marketing.

    Of course there is a bias. Our population as a whole has a bias that sees reality in terms of static physical objects.

    Science knows there is not such thing as a static physical object and yet it colors the way we do everything.

    Why is your body lighter the more relaxed it is? Enlightenment? Science knows the weight of an object can fluctuate but the view of the world we have rebels against it.

    Simple calculation? Only if you do it incorrectly!

    Remember, we are NOT a closed system. Energy input affects EVERYTHING. Calculating increases in output, effects of traveling through the ever changing medium of space we're traveling through and try to calculate how those inputs are affected/effected by current climate systems is no trivial task.

    Haha, simple calculation, we can't even accurately predict rain and you think the single biggest factor affecting all life on earth is simple.

    Why would it shake things up? We're moving into denser space, more radiation, increased solar activity, ALL the planets are heating up.

    Never understood how nobody seems to think about where we are in space. It's like being on a ship and not thinking that the conditions of the sea are going to have any effect on life on board. Very myopic.

    huh? Old testament is all about achieving enlightenment/rapture.

    When you're lost inside the words, you can't see the bigger picture. Most 'religions' are so focused on the details of their religion that no one seems to know what the original purpose was for!

    We have literally become a society of myopics. Literally!

    Think about that. And it's only going to get worse because science encourages myopia.

    You mean, the translated versions support the notion of something akin to rapture, which suprisingly, came from the translations. Circular reasoning. Look to the jews for the proper meanings.

    Start thinking and stop sopping up what the media tells you.

    Think!!! How is bombing something a way of spreading faith?

    Muslims 'terrorists' are concerned with one main thing, and that's preserving their way of life, not subjecting others to it. They are not out there trying to convert americans, they're doing everything they can to stop americans from converting them!!!

    Stop and put yourself in the other persons shoes, they're people as well with the same feelings and concerns.
