Bleach vs Blood research
ThinkingMind replied to ThinkingMind's topic in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
For the blood drinking creatures I wanted to know if bleach in the blood would infect them somehow. Like it would be the same as injecting bleach into a person stomach, but than the added affect that these creatures eat blood. So you have to take into account the blood reaction along with how the creatures body would adapt to it. If you inject bleach into a Tick will it die? Humans have gotten sick from ingesting infected food before too. Which also goes into another idea. If you can put some kind of chemical into your blood that wont kill you, but is deadly to parasites would you be immune to ticks and mosquito? Since your blood would kill or otherwise deter them? -
So what would happen if you introduced blood to bleach Set one Blood samples- Blood infected with staph(Mrsa) Blood infected with bacteria(Puss of infected cut) Blood infected with a virus(Cold) Set two Now what if you introduced it to creatures that drank blood Mosquito Spider Tick Leaches Set 3 Now what would happen if introduced to a mammal? Its known that you are not suppose to ingest bleach. Bleach is suppose to be a very strong base but people have also bathed in bleach. However what would happen if injected straight into the blood stream? Disclaimer: I obviously not going to try this on everything living but given the fact this is a science forum I thought we could speculate what happens when you introduce bleach to blood. Though set one is probably pretty harmless and doable I got the idea from this video, but this is peroxide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCOOULOL1vU

Yes, but saying we should coat everything in sugar is not a good idea. Nore does everything need to be preserved and a lot of things use salt as a preservative not sugar. Also if you can have fresh food why eat food with nothing but preservatives?

Water (not a bunch of water, like 1 cm deep or dripping leftover water Clothing (White Cotton Undershirt Sleeveless) Eye Glasses (The one people wear on their faces to see better) Window Glass Sun Glasses Sunscreen SPF 30 Copy Paper Ziploc Plastic Bag Sunscreen(might depending on the brand) Eye Glasses(No, but they do have new UV protection kind) In Sunglasses to (Glasses often glare with sun and sometimes glass just amplify sun(If you cant stop the sun I doubt you are going to stop the UV rays) Sun glasses(Its been proven shown normal sunglasses dont always protect against UV so they made special UV sun glasses) They made a lot of new UV protection stuff in recent years since they did not protect against UV.

Well I just explained it. Basically giving humans abilities they would not normally have. Like maybe extra arms, better strength, heightened senses, better vision. Saying something like not being able to teleport makes sense but I dont see how one can say its impossible to make genetic mutations or bio engineer things like this. I mean we already have research dealing with this type of stuff. They make animals that have human DNA. This is done to make sure the transplant organ does not entirely reject its host. We know how cells work and how chromosomes work. We know how many chromosomes you need and where and how having too many or not enough creates defects in humans. We know that chemicals can mutate, damage or kill babies before they are born. Knowing all this information why is altering a human really so far out there? We know how people grow, and how to kill things like bacteria. We know how drugs affect our bodies and we know which chemicals we need a balance of to create a healthy human, What is so far fetched about creating intentional mutations? There are also a people with natural mutations already. I dont think humans are really that dumb. I think we have the potential to do a lot if there is enough interest and research.

Does being an Atheist make you closed minded? [Answered: NO]
ThinkingMind replied to sunshaker's topic in Religion
What makes you say that? Going out of your way to bother someone for praying over his lunch who was not bothering anyone does not sound rational. Why exactly do you believe bullying is a rational decision? You see when people have healthy self esteem they do not feel a need to gloat. If someone feels a need to push that stuff on everyone it just makes them seem like a bigger idiot and really weak minded. Why do we need stupid infecting society? Its kind of like hating gays for being Gay but I guess an Atheist would agree with that if they are straight right? Since anything they are not personally into is just plain evil. Wow, this sounds a lot like something someone else would do but I guess the irony is hard to see. Science is not a religion and Atheism should not be an Anti religious(Religion). When you turn Atheism into a religion you just created a hypocrisy. -
You think bio engineering is magic. I was talking about making genetically modified humans with super abilities. However you go on to say how bio engineering something is not possible and its the same as saying witchcraft. That was your idea not mine. I never brought up magic and spell casters. So you really should not preach something you would so willingly speak out against. Also I dont mean all the abilities as clearly some of them are not possible. The idea is more to give humans abilities they would not normally have through biological experiments but you know if you think bio-engineering is a dumb subject no purpose in discussing it with you right? There was also research done trying to stop the aging process too.

No, not really. You simply cant imagine it since no one has done it yet. Not that I think these things would necessarily be that useful and there are a bunch of other reasons to not do it. I am talking about scientific possibility not fantasy. There is a huge difference. Xmen is science fiction like a lot of superheros are. Bioengineering is impossible to you now and anytime in the future since you dont have an imagination of what could be but only what is presently here and honestly where would science be if everyone thought like that?

Preserving things in a crap load of sugar is not healthy nor a good idea. Unless you like diabetes in which case keep doing what you are doing.

Are you saying you trolled us? This was a set up? to get views. -
Yes, but that still goes into understanding a language. You can tell a person what a B and A sound likes all you want but that does not mean they understand how to read. Teaching a person to read is actually is a challenge. However once you get past that simple obstacle most thing become easy. Also learning the basics is good, but at the same time a lot of schools drill the basics even when its no longer needed. My school made us do spider webs till the 12th grade, and do to the fact I been writing since I was in 2nd grade I could create a story without one. The Basics are for those who dont understand it but even if the students are advanced they still teach these worthless paper cutter classes and dont allow children to just experience things. In fact a lot of times my teachers accused me of cheating on things I wrote for class when they asked for stories. Not that I would ever cheat on something I took pride in. One teacher actually looked it up on the computer but couldn't find anything that matched it.

I would be more willing to believe that than anything else. Also some of the things could have been metaphorical. Like we say we eat Jesus by eating cookies and drinking wine but its not literal.

The fact that so many Atheists do it. That so many people have also complained about this, and a bunch of them post online about how they insulted or attacked a Christian for doing something like pray for his lunch at work. So its called being aware. The fact you dont realize it just means you are not that aware of it. There are also famous Atheists who say stuff like we need to teach people to stop being religious. Though I not saying creationists are not guilty of the same crap. I have seen know it all Atheists fighting head strong creationist too. They are both often very rude, belligerent and judgmental. I dont like either side of the coin honestly and I been stuck in the cross fire of both parties in the past. Since I generally dont show a lot of conviction either way as I tend to be very open and friendly sometimes people assume I must be voting for the other party, but I not with a party. I am just open to other peoples beliefs and sadly there are Creationists and Atheists who simply aren't. Also if there is a story with a title "I cant stand Christians, why do they have to be so ignorant" followed by. So I was at work today and there was my coworker eating his lunch. Than he did something astounding. He looked like he was praying. So you know what I did? I went up to him and asked what he was doing. So he told me he was praying. I was just so disgusted by what he was telling me I just had to explain why what he believes is so wrong. Why do Christians have to be so stupid? When clearly he wasn't being stupid. The Atheist was just being terribly intolerant and than complains that Christians are intolerant. There are intolerant Christians but it seems hypocritical to go out of your way to be a jerk, and than say why everyone else is wrong. People should examine their own actions before they start placing blame on others. If you cant follow your own teachings, why should anyone else listen to you? If you cant follow your teachings anything you say is utterly worthless. Oh and another argument I see a lot. Question: Why do you hate Christians Awnser: Since Christian people were mean to me as a kid so all of them must want to hurt me.(Often mom and dad issues or church problems.) which turns into a loop Why did you do this to person B: Since (Childhood trauma) Why did you do this to person C: Since(Childhood trauma) Why did you do this to person D:Since(Childhood trauma) So a lot of times these people who become Atheists end up projecting and just want to rebel. Like the lost little Children they are. A mean Creationist will just call you stupid for not agreeing. An Atheist will tell you why he is superior in every way. I think I honestly prefer blatant stupidity over arrogance. However neither one is much fun to deal with. Its stupid to argue that everyone is bad for not agreeing with you, while its arrogant to say everyone is stupid since you should be hailed and worshiped as the supreme perfect one who knows all in this universe.- 202 replies
