Do you feel no compassion for your fellow humans? This little girl didn't have a choice in her death. Her mother was duped into allowing a bunch of people MASQUERADING as scientists to kill her with ignorance. I certainly don't feel sorry for the people who ended up in jail, and they should be left to rot there for the rest of their lives for what they did. The mother I can feel slightly sorry for, only because she has lost her daughter. She too was full of ignorance. The little girl I can feel deeply sorry for. Her parents were supposed to be protecting her...not allowing this to happen.

Toss in some techno-babble to confuse anyone who doesn't spend 24/7 reading science...and you will find a LOT of people who will buy into your "science" without any second-guess. It looks like this little girl's mother fell victim to this horrid type of scam.
I don't think you should be so quick to finger science here.. ANYONE with a decent amount of common sense would NOT stand by while this procedure happened to their child, even if it was in the name of a scientific procedure that was supposed to help the child.
I would have locked her mother up with the rest of them if it were up to me.

No no! I'm not blaming science on this one, I'm blaming the general public LACK of scientific knowledge and the people who EXPLOIT this lack to their own agendas, usually for money.
The only fault of science, in this, is the elitism that began in the scientific community last century. Both the public and scientists themselves began to view scientists as a step above the rest, in some ways. Science has given us so many material things. In a materlialistic society, I think it has led to a hope that science will solve all of our problems...and do so NOW. So people are more willing to put their doubts aside when something is passed off as "science".

i feel a combination of compassion and anger.
the more we fuck up the faster we evolve. HOW ELSE DO PEOPLE LEARN?
my lengthy apathetic state due to my lack of direction, has enevitably led to anger. but it does seem usefull in ways.

Has anyone ever heard of the Darwin Award http://www.darwinawards.com/ This is awarded when a really stupid person takes themselves out of the gene pool by doing something dangerously stupid. Most of the stories are sickly humorous. Unfortunately this was a case of idiots taking someone ELSE out of the gene pool instead of themselves. Ignorance is NOT bliss.

A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda

"HOW ELSE DO PEOPLE LEARN?"
by reason for one, experiments which dont cost peoples lives.
do you learn by repeatedlky banging your head against the same wall.
this is from dark ages, we dont learn anything new from this, its just terrible.

it still baffels reading that article again.
its like, how far are people willing to go now?
"how else do people learn?"
repetition is one the core ways humans learn.

We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

Yes but repetition produces memorization, which is quite far from understanding

what rubbish, if you could not change then you would stay just the way you were when you were born.

""you are what you are you can not change it, you are where you are you can not change it"" did you not get all the possibilities of that sentence? let's do another one, you do what you did... and you can not change it.. you are where you was.. and you can not change it?

Gomp, in the example he quoted you failed to use past tense terminology. Therefore, you were expressing that the present cannot be different if one desires it to be. (which is false)
In the latter example given, you used past tense terminology, which expresses that the PAST cannot be changed. (Which is true.)
Sometimes it's not a matter of how a statement is being interpretted, but how you worded it.

""in the example he quoted you failed to use past tense terminology. Therefore, you were expressing that the present cannot be different if one desires it to be. (which is false)"" ok one more time "you are what you are you can not change it, you are where you are you can not change it" an ekample: you broke your leg, skiing in the alps, all alone.. in fact you broke both your legs.. so you sit there then, you are hurt and you are still sitting there hurt, what can you do? (you have no cell phone either.) then you are what you are you can not change it, you are where you are you can not change it? ""In the latter example given, you used past tense terminology, which expresses that the PAST cannot be changed. (Which is true.)"" "you do what you did... and you can not change it.. you are where you was.. and you can not change it? " same example, you could not move, (you had broken both legs) you jumped down a to steep hill, could you change it? ""Sometimes it's not a matter of how a statement is being interpreted, but how you worded it. "" I have no desire to neither prove nor disprove the views and philosophies. you may be think you understand the words I have just said to you. but, what you may fail to realize is, what you may have thought I said is not what I actually may have intended by saying what I said, when I said it.
