I wish there was a god

People used to think that the earth was placed on the back of four gigantic elephants standing on the back of a huge turtle. 

To me we are still in the same ages. We are not civilized enough. We still kill and torture others because what they believe is different from ours. We think our religion is right and the rest of the world is cheap and insane. We laugh at Muslim women who dive into swimming pool with full hijab on, but we ourselves believe Jesus could walk on the water, or Moses's stick turned into a snake that ate all other snakes. We believe all non-Muslims will go to hell, and only Muslim men get 72 virgins. We are the same Christians who beheaded priests who questioned the Roman church over 32 teeth of a horse just few centuries ago. We are the same Christians who imprisoned Galileo. Christianity is 2000 years old, and Islam is 1400, so I can't blame Taliban for their brutality and cruelty any less than the pre-renaissance church. If you think Islam is funny then let it evolve another 600 years and see.

According to the Abrahamic religions, the prophets and God are unique. They never make mistakes. Whatever they say is right and their holy books are correct. Then how do you explain this: Ecclesiastes 1:5 'the sun rises, and sets and return to its place'. So when you find the simplest mistake in one book you must cast doubt in the whole holy book.  Something doesn't sound right. Normal and healthy humans must question their belief at least once in their lifetime. They are allowed to do that under Abrahamic religions. I've been raised with one so I know. People need to look at it from an angle that maybe, just maybe it could be a myth, an exaggerated series of events that turned into reality.  When many people follow a wrong path or believe in a myth it automatically becomes reality.

We can't expect Swanny to change with just one post of ours.I do understand. It is difficult to question something that you are born with, raised with, taught with, lived with all your life. It is scary. It is scary to know there might be no god. 

That is the truth, but we really don't know if there is god. At least not yet! Even if the prophets were sent by god, the evidence they left behind wasn't enough to convince people like me. According to the Abrahamic religions, god is God. He is the purest thing. He is the light. So why didn't he guide the prophets enough to leave a promising proof behind. According to Islam, there has been 124,000 prophets. Dear God, why didn't you just send just one to guide all of us at once? Look at the world now, Christians kills Jews, Jews kill Muslims, and Muslims kill themselves. Something's not right. The prophecy project failed. It didn't work, whether God was behind it, or Anunakies from the planet Nibiru. It didn't work. therefore, it was not sent by god. 

I wish I was born in a time that humans had got over the issue with religion and faith. But we are still living in the pre-historian times.

Doppler effect

I discovered the Doppler effect when I was 12-13 years old by myself for sound waves. I told that to my Physics teacher in high school, but he didn't understand what I was talking about. Years later I discovered somebody already discovered this named Doppler. He had even expanded for all kinds of wave forms, including light.

Desire it and you'll get it! First law of universe!?

Owl butterflies, leaf-like bugs, cobra snake with scary eyes on its back or cockroaches that scare the hell out of you with those big eyes...we all have seen such examples and we all have asked ourselves how the heck they have developed such patterns or shapes? Animals do this to scare away the predators or to hide themselves from them.

Religious people who can't find any scientific answer for it say that God did this....I don't deny that God or the ultimate energy or whatever you call it might have indirectly did this. However, I am a scientist and it's my job to see everything scientifically. But this is one of those things that I can't find any answer for. At least not yet. How did they do it? Or better use a present tense: How are they doing it?

It needs so much brain and thinking to create those patterns, and it is difficult to believe these animals' and insects' brains are strong enough to calculate and be so much creative to shape up those patterns or build bones to change the skeleton of the animals. This is something that we still haven't found any answer for!

the same goes for the fish who wanted to walk out of the water and step on the soil in the dinosaur era, long before the Jurassic's. I remember this quote from a dinosaur book that I asked my parents to buy for me that ' the fish developed legs because they wanted to walk out of the water, and the lizard-dinos developed wings because they wanted to fly'. The book used the verb 'to want' in the sentences.

So If you want it you will get it?

The other question is how many generations of a eukaryotes need to be born until the ancestor gets what he desired ages ago? lol. For prokaryotes this is what happens almost very quickly. Ever heard how bacteria become resistant to a certain antibiotic? This is what we face routinely in the lab. After some passages the bacteria become resistant. However, at the bacteria level we know this activity as a mass-biochemical reaction that bacteria develop to survive. Bacteria don't have brain to think, so obviously this is done by the biochemical reactions to create that antibiotic-resistant gene. Ask any biologist and they will explain this for you. But what about the bigger animals?

The bacteria don't even have the brain to 'want'. Do we need a brain to develop new strategies to carry on with life? Or are we underestimating animals, insects or even bacteria? maybe they are more complicated than what we thought they are. Maybe 'wanting' is a biochemical reaction that in eukaryotes it looks different.

So if you want it you will get it!? we are not sure if this is really true, this is a theory. But let's be on the safe side and 'want' the things we need in life! Perhaps 'The Secret' was right all this time? Maybe not only our body follows our desires, but also the universe hears us.

This also reminds me of the Mikel Anjelo's painting. Maybe, God is our brain?

Wide, flat and big nose geography

I do not know the surgical terms and names for nose types but I came to a conclusion recently that most probably wide and flat nose (Nubian) comes from people from regions that have humid climate.






I had a look on the map and realized most of these countries are equatorial where it is hard to breathe due to humidity and lack of oxygen in your lungs makes you inhale big volumes of air into your lungs. Starting from Fiji, New Guinea, Indonesia to go on central Africa, Kenya, Congo and so on. But why the wide nose phenotype is not that available in south American amazon? Does this mean that people from that region are new to that environment? and why do some Chinese have flat nose? this gets rarer when you go towards north China. Mongolians usually have bony faces with big cheeks and normal straight nose.



However in other places such as deserts which are dry hot like Saudi Arabia, people have hawk nose. Perhaps this was evolved to protect them from sand blowing to their faces.


and there goes Scandinavian nose, no comment...

The majority

Usually the majority are stupid, and if they all share a wrong idea it will be very hard to convince them with the truth.

Perhaps the prophets kicked their own asses to deliver the messages they'd been told to deliver

Trees

One thing I can't find an answer for is why trees give fruit! I believe in evolution and I've studied it very well but still I can't find any answer for the creation of trees. why trees grow fruits and make them ready for other animals? It is like somebody directly made them so that animals could eat them to survive. So the animals were first generated or the trees? It is like the old question of egg and chicken. Which one was first evolved? one said that evebody saw the drop of a apple, but only Newton asked why. The same goes for the creation of apple. Apple was first made or animals?
