I had a Dracaena Draco.(dragon tree) My parents bought him for me on holiday in Tenerife. He became to big so he had to winter outside in the greenhouse but he died. We had a lot of frost this year and it's a tropical tree... It's not a real tree but it grows like one. "According to legend, the dragon tree is related to Ladon, an ancient dragon that had 100 heads and spoke in as many different voices. When Juno the queen of the gods and mother of Mars was married, her mother Gaia gave her three golden apples as a gift and set the dragon Ladon to guard them in the Garden of the Hesperides. Herakles, also known as Hercules, intending to steal the golden fruit in the garden, killed the dragon Ladon and from this creatures blood sprang forth the Dracaena or dragon tree. As a reward for giving his life in protection of the golden apples, Juno then placed Ladon amongst the stars in the constellation Draco that even now wraps itself around the north star magically boosting the power of defense, war and new works."

ok, but I mean the Quran is less open for interpretation because if you do then you are changing God's words. If you interpret bible verses then you are changing the words of people which are inspired by God...and not the words of God. The Quran is also a dictation...in the first person. The bible is more customer-friendly

I don't think a world without religion would be possible. (contrary to what I said in OP) A world without religion would be a world without life imo. Beliefs which are not based on facts(things that actually happened) can evolve into religion. Those beliefs are a property of life. -When hyenas have a bad experience with a lion then they will try to avoid all lions because they believe all lions behave like that. -The holographic principle is not proven so it concerns an unscientific belief. If it gets proven it will become science. Hindu texts teach karma and many religions adhere to Hinduism. The Tao Te Ching also teaches karma. Don't make a statement like that concerning "all religions". You can't prove that for all religions.

I have a very lousy level of concentration. Paying attention when I watch a movie is very challenging.

Independent from biological influence? Seriously? Falling in love is a simple evolutionary trait. Any evidence for the quantum energy?

True love is not influenced by our behavior nor our genes you say? What then causes love? Cupido?

How can the universe originate as a field of probabilities? Then what determined are current 'future'?

I don't know if it will help but you can place a deer feeding bucket outside the fence and put some tasty deerfood in. Or perhaps you can place a wire fence horizontally about 20 cm(or more) above the ground, in front of the fence. Then I don't think they will still jump the fence.

When they are ripe, I often pick some sweet corn for my lunch

I suppose it depends on the kind of love. The love a parent feels for it's kid is obviously an evolutionary trait.

I have a vegetable garden and greenhouse. In the vegetable garden I will plant/sow salad, courgette, pumpkin, rhubarb, corn, sunflower and herbs. In my greenhouse I will plant tomatoes, peppers, a cucumber and salad. I've sown my tomatoes and one pepper inside at 15 march, they are now a couple cm tall. I fertilize with vinasse, fish emulsion and dry cow manure. I've added horse dung and compost the last years. Especially self grown tomatoes are a lot better then the ones you can buy in a store. Are there more gardeners on this forum? What do you grow?

Our consciousness is a mix of stored knowledge and intelligence. Your intelligence and the amount of knowledge you can store is in your DNA. But the kind of knowledge that is stored is obviously not in your DNA. Love and sexual orientation are directed by your genes and external factors.

The Fermilab Holometer (in Illinois) is one of the most sensitive laser interferometers. It should be able to detect holographic fluctuations in space time. It's claimed the Holometer can detect fluctuations in the light of a single attometer. The Holometer basically seeks holographic 'noise' in reality. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holometer

Many drugs reduce the symptoms of a disease or injury. This causes you to feel better but doesn't it slow down the healing process in your body? When you take something like Brufen to reduce pain and inflammation, doesn't your body then thinks it's less sick then it really is, which causes healing systems to be less ignited? When you have an injury during sporting, people often add ice to the injured part. By adding ice, you slow down the blood stream and metabolism. Doesn't this inhibit the body from reacting like it has to?

When you say that all religions teach a form of Karma then I want evidence for that. Pointing to 'their books' is not evidence. You do understand that their our 'a lot' of religions? It's f**!ish to make an assumption about all religions because you think you understand some of them.

We could live at the present day without a Plato, but a double number of Newtons is required to discover the secrets of nature, and to bring life into harmony with the laws of nature. Dimitri Mendeljev

How did all life become developed by the big bang?

Pathogens can produce enzymes to help overcome body/cell defenses. In a sense, those enzymes are prions or can become prions. It depends on the definitions you use... -
Whether abortion is ethical or not, depends imo on the circumstances.

Our idea's concerning things which are impossible, evolve. Many things remain impossible while others become possible. It's perhaps better to use the term 'probable'. 100% proof does not exist so in a sense everything is probable/improbable and not possible/impossible. Possibility refers to 'having the potential' while probability refers to 'what is likely to occur'.
