Smart genes is as smart genes does.

With a statistical model and an analysis of more than 2000 tumors, researchers have discovered 27 genes that can stop tumor development.

@Busisiwe
If each of us were to conduct a research  we would have the same information    scientist  have found physical evidence of multiple  universes   .We have choice to believe in science or our creator.

Common misconceptions about the multiverse
There is zero evidence for other universes. So the biggest misconception about the multiverse is that it's a bone fide theory that's been proven. “It isn't—it doesn't really have a mathematical basis—it is a collection of ideas,” said Lewis.

The use of the multiverse in Everything Everywhere All At Once has been a massive success, but the concept itself is a long way off from becoming an accepted scientific theory. “All good science starts with a (sometimes wacky) idea,” said Lewis. “But so do the paths to dead ends.”

No, the court ruled that abortion rights are not protected by the constitution. This means that the states decide whether or not to ban abortion.

For example, Indiana has banned abortion. In California, abortion is legal.
To get to the men America will have to ban condoms.

@FLRW
On the one occasion he is known to have mentioned it, he asked 'where is everybody?'- apparently suggesting that we don't see extraterrestrials on Earth because interstellar travel may not be feasible, but not suggesting that intelligent extraterrestrial life does not exist, or suggesting its absence is paradoxical.
Originally, the question was meant to attack the idea of interstellar travel, the possibility of which Fermi wasn’t confident in. But the question remains: if there were civilizations scattered across the stars by the billions, why haven’t we heard from them? It is from these questions, the Drake equation, and the Kardashev scale that the true paradox was born. The Milky Way is about 10 billion years old and 100,000 light-years across. If aliens had spaceships that could travel at 1 percent of the speed of light, the galaxy could have already been colonized 1,000 times. Why haven’t we heard from any other life?

Pro-choice is the side that favors abortion.

Pro-life is against abortion.
The Supreme Court in America rules abortion as illegal after 50 decades of women having the right to pro choice/abortions.

I think being in a simulation may best explain the Fermi paradox, it would just take too much ram to simulate all those life forms, but the filter theory of civilization dying due to some technological progress, seems promising as well
The Fermi Paradox is not a simulation, it is the discrepancy between the lack of conclusive evidence of advanced extraterrestrial life and the apparently high likelihood of its existence

I have never heard of omega 3 fatty acid causing cognitive deficits ever and there are so many bullshit supplements pretending to be nootropics so I am sure you could cherry pick something but a well researched nootropic stack shouldn't cause cognitive decline, it's supposed to do the opposite
Nootropic is used to treat people with cognitive functions impaired.

Read the post again.
Nootropics are more effective in cases where cognitive functions are obviously impaired.

Although these substances are more effective in cases where cognitive functions are obviously impaired, Nootropics tend to be well tolerated in patients with cognitive impairments; the incidence of side effects is low, and those that do occur are usually mild [4,5,6]. Most nootropics do not have an immediate effect after a single dose, and therefore long-term use is necessary to achieve the desired results [7]. However, their long-term effects on healthy individuals are still unknown [8].
Other indications may include chronic disorders of cognitive functions such as mental retardation or memory impairment [22]. Nootropics are given relatively often in these cases, but their benefit, especially in more severe dementia, is questionable.

This is correct. If a fetus is not a child in the womb deserving of protection, they will be treated as an extension of the woman’s body. Her body is her choice because her body is her property. By extension, the child would be as well. She may give birth to the child and raise them, or she may have them discarded if she does want to take care of a child.

That is the pro-choice viewpoint, and it is why dehumanizing a fetus is so important to their position.

I feel like this is obvious though.
Pro choice is a violation of a woman’s right over her own body.

Not sure if that counts as nootropic. Plenty of people drink lots of coffee but most dont seem to be smart on some high level.

But then again, I started with coffee at age 5 or 6.

How AI is helping the search for extraterrestrial life

All this could change, though, thanks to new research from the Carnegie Institution for Science, which is using AI to analyse rock samples for signs of present or past life. 
The team found that the AI is able to distinguish former living and non-living material, with an accuracy of almost 90%.
Chimpanzees are the closest we have to compare with human intelligence.

Is there anything smarter than humans?
Chimpanzees have been subjected to countless hours of research with the goal of better understanding their cognition. The result is that we can confidently say that chimps are one of the most intelligent species on earth. Humans share 99 percent of our DNA with chimps, so this should come as no surprise.

Circumcision reduces the average penis size by 3/8 inches. The difference may not seem major, and while it’s only 8mm total, it can vary from one person to the next. 
Are you saying the covenant of circumcision was designed to shorten the Jewish influence?. Why didn’t God pick blacks for his covenant? Was God being a racist?

@IlDiavolo
You are a 1 being. You are 1 person. You are not 3 persons.
But you have 3 parts:
A physical body
A logical mind
A spiritual soul
It's interesting to note that this concept is also taught by the Taoism, but contrary to the ever-contradictory Christian belief, Taoism explains it in a more coherent sense. Qi, Shen, and Jing, the three treasures, the three layers of the universe which are interdependent and must be cultivated by men.

You've got to note too that Taoism is older than Christianity, so my guess is that as Christianity is a cheap copy of everything, this teaching must have been copied from somewhere else and changed at convinience.

I wouldn't be surprised to be honest. It is said that Jesus, aka the Christ, spent a time in Egypt and India, so he must have grasped these concepts and then he taught them to their disciples, but it's clear that his disciples didn't understand very well the lesson.
Are you claiming Christianity is closer to Taoism than it is to Judaism? The majority of Bibles are printed in China. So even today Christianity has a strong Chinese influence.

The case for the Historical Jesus
But what if the Jews had accepted Jesus?
If the Jews had made Jesus their king in Jerusalem and he had not been crucified, the atonement for sin would not have been accomplished, nor would have the resurrection.  Christianity simply would not have been born into the world, and salvation not come to the Gentiles.

The greatest irony, and tragedy, is that for much of the last two millennia it was the Church, the instrument intended to bring salvation and comfort to the lost, that most afflicted suffering upon the Jews in centuries of inquisitions, crusades, pogroms, expulsions, Replacement Theology, and the Holocaust inspired by the German reformer Martin Luther. And that was based, at least in part, with the idea stated above, that the Jews deserve punishment for their rejection of Christ. It was the Church’s long cruelty in the name of Jesus that has left a thick scar on the hearts of the Jewish people to this day.

Are the Jews prepared to share the stage with Christians by accepting Jesus?
First they will have to give up Circumcision which aligns them more with Muslims than Christians who don’t circumcise.
Second they have to love their neighbour but also be likeable themselves.
Third. Don’t seek the destruction of the world.

@SocraticGregarian96
I meant the ten commandments that I listed in my post. If you are so dumb that you did not even realize this basic fact, it’s no wonder your logic here is also horrible! Furthermore, the Ten Commandments only prove my argument further, and your thick skull provided listed the evidence here for me!

Here are but a few examples of the 613 mitzvot that pertain to Jews’ treatment of non-Jews:
To love the stranger (Deut. 10:19) (CCA61). See Love and Brotherhood.
Not to wrong the stranger in speech (Ex. 22:20) (CCN49).
Not to wrong the stranger in buying or selling (Ex. 22:20) (CCN50)
Not to delay payment of a hired man's wages (Lev. 19:13) (CCN38)
That a man should fulfill whatever he has uttered (Deut. 23:24) (CCA39).
Not to break a vow (Num. 30:3) (CCN184).
Not to delay in fulfilling vows or bringing vowed or free-will offerings (Deut. 23:22) (CCN185).
Not to leave something that might cause hurt (Deut. 22:8) (CCN190). See Love and Brotherhood.
Not to slay an innocent person (Ex. 20:13) (CCN32). See Life.
Not to rob by violence (Lev. 19:13) (CCN35).
Not to defraud (Lev. 19:13) (CCN37).
Not to covet what belongs to another (Ex. 20:14) (CCN40).
Not to indulge in evil thoughts and sights (Num. 15:39) (CCN156).
There are many more examples but you get the point.

Those are examples what how Jews should treat others, but nowhere does it tell Jews to be likeable themselves. This is why the Jews have suffered antisemitism for over 3000 years. They were never liked where ever they went.
A simple addition to the commandment to love your neighbour “but be likeable yourself “ would have corrected this important omission.

Consider this question. Is there anything that is not legally a person that you cannot legally own?
Most people would cite things the government can own but a private citizen cannot.
If the government has possession of it, it would be considered government property. 

So we are left with this question:
Is there anything the government cannot legally own that is not a person?
Government cannot legally own private property, private holdings etc.

The word God is for me nothing but the expression and product of human weaknesses,' Einstein wrote.
Einstein described the world of matter with an equation.
E = mc2. It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.

Is there anyone here that can defend it?Is there any one here that can debate it?

The Jews were limited by their inability to see God in multiple forms could not see the Trinity as God’s approach to conceptualize himself as fire, water and spirit or the trinity of God as Father, son and Holy Spirit.

Not that the Jews didn’t try.
Moses even asked God to show his glory to the Jews.
Exodus 33:18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”

God instead chose to show his backside.
Exodus 33:20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my glory, for no one may see it and live.”
Exodus 33:23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my backside; but my face must not be seen.”

So the only concept the Jews have of God is his backside and not the trinity.
So how did the Christians see the Trinity?
Jesus said, John 14:9 Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father;

John 14:15-31 NIV - Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit -
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit - “If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and.

There you have the trinity. God’s backside, Jesus and his promise of the Holy Spirit.

If it is a belief system , it is.

What is critical thinking in Christianity?

Critical thinking enables us to establish that doctrines central to the Christian faith are based solidly on scripture, reason, and available evidences. We find that these doctrines stand up to a careful examination.

Textual criticism examines biblical manuscripts and their content to identify what the original text probably said. Source criticism searches the text for evidence of their original sources. Form criticism identifies short units of text seeking the setting of their origination.

How is textual criticism used in the Bible?
Textual criticism of the New Testament is the identification of textual variants, or different versions of the New Testament, whose goals include identification of transcription errors, analysis of versions, and attempts to reconstruct the original text.

@Tradesecret
At what point does the Holy Spirit come into a person?
According to the New Testament, a person receives the Holy Spirit immediately upon believing in Jesus Christ as their Savior: Ephesians 1:13-14: "Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit"

How do you get the Holy Spirit to enter you?

The only thing necessary to receive the Holy Spirit is that you must have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Once you've confessed Jesus as your Savior, God gives you the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13). You don’t have to be a certain denomination, or be a pastor or evangelist to receive the Holy Spirit. Whether you have been a believer for 50 years or five minutes, you can receive the Holy Spirit right where you are, right now.
We don't get the Holy Spirit to enter us. He's God. He's not on a string. John 3:5-9 tells us that the Spirit goes where the Spirit desires. Not where we desire. He's like the wind. It blows where ever it pleases.  

God is not a man. God is sovereign. Ephesians 1:4 actually says God chose those whom he would save before the beginning of the world. Those whom he predestined. 

So again, you need to stop putting the horse before the cart. Faith is a gift of God. It is not the cause of salvation. We cant just drum up faith to believe in God. And part of the evidence for this truth is seen on this particular forum question. Look at the answers of those who are not Christians. The truth wouldn't convince them. That's what they all said. 
The apostle Paul clearly taught that we receive the Holy Spirit the moment we receive Jesus Christ as our Savior. First Corinthians 12:13 declares, “For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.”

The Trinity Problem

Yeah, the Jews were totally limited by their inability to accept a theological innovation that had no basis in the Torah. Sooo limited.

The Trinity is basically Christian fanfic that got canonized and we're over here like "WHY won't the Jews accept my fanfic??"
Not that the Jews didn’t try.
Moses even asked God to show his glory to the Jews.
Exodus 33:18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”

God instead chose to show his backside.
Exodus 33:20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my glory, for no one may see it and live.”
Exodus 33:23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my backside; but my face must not be seen.”

So the only concept the Jews have of God is his backside and not the trinity.
So how did the Christians see the Trinity?

John 14:15-31 NIV - Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit -

B. Cox Has Answers to the Fermi Paradox

They couldn’t find any intelligent beings on earth.

"We observe that no intelligent beings from outer space are now present on Earth," Hart wrote in the paper's abstract. "It is suggested that this fact can best be explained by the hypothesis that there are no other advanced civilizations in our galaxy."

Intelligent aliens might simply have decided to never visit us, or did so long ago without leaving any trace.

Alternatively, it might be that life is simply so rare that the chances of two intelligent species being positioned relatively near each other in the vastness of space is exceedingly slim.


A more somber suggestion is that we are alone in the universe. Life, like that found on Earth, is simply so vanishingly unlikely to arise, that ours was the only world where this happened.


Most scientists think this is unlikely. But there is the possibility that some sort of event, known as a Great Filter, might prevent civilizations like our own from progressing far enough to make contact elsewhere.

I was skimming over a WF/Bones debate about abortion, and I was thinking about the question of personhood within a moral and legal framework.

My thoughts went to an old infamous Scotus case where a man was declared property and thus could not have personhood. (Dredd Scott)

If we do not confer personhood to a 9 month old fetus, does this mean it must then be considered property as well?
Not conferring personhood to a fetus is to deny the fetus any individual rights a person is given.
