    Bolshevism as such

    The thing that has been bugging me for a while has been a simultaneous use of variations of "Nazi" and "Hitler" as metaphors for the worst thing/person imaginable and total ignorance, disinterest or even idealization of communist Bolshevism. Even here, in this very community there was this guy...

    Little help on carbon dating

    Hello everyone, One of my professors is convinced that carbon dating is "inaccurate in 90 cases out of 100", if you want the context I can give it to you, but right now I'll cut to the chase - I've seen something on this forum a few years ago saying that there is some pseudoscience regarding...

    Lab equipment

    Greetings! This might be a little silly, but what's the quality control system for the lab equipment? Marine microbiology in my case. What I mean is that if I (as say, a university) am buying the equipment, and I want some good equipment, why would I not go for the cheaper options that don't...

    Miracles!

    hello guys, I've just had a kind of a debate with hardcore Christian through Internet. the history of how we got there is kind of interesting but let's just skip it, all you need to know is that she has never heard that there are people out there (well she did, but she didn't believe it i guess)...

    Mosquitoes must die!

    So I thought I would try one of those insect-zappers for my country house that they use in movies, googled it and this poped out: Link Most reviews said that it' awesome (duh), some said that it does not kill mosquitoes since it uses UV, this comment was particularly helpful: So i need...

    Facebook statistics

    I have been noticing that many apparently non-religious people did not state their religious beliefs or non-beliefs in "Religious views" in their profile on facebook, but have filled everything else (except for political views, the majority kept that one empty). So I took a pen and wrote down...

    "Energy"

    I watched a video about Dr. Masraru Emoto's "great discovery", in case you haven't heard, he claims to stuff in some emotions into water (somebody just sits, stares at glass of water and thinks of love or hate) and then, altering freezing that water, according to him, positive emotions make...

    How much do priests earn in your country?

    They do earn a LOT here, I figure it's among the most paid positions. It's getting in everybody's eyes since all of them priests ride at least a shiny Land-Criuser instead of serving their god through denying earthly temptations and helping the poor. I must say these luxury cars have damaged the...

    Bacterial growth and headsets

    I've read that bacterias multiply faster when you have your headsets on (it said that you get 700 times more bacteria per hour in your ear). It's actually the second time I'm hearing this so I guess you have heard of it too. so when I asked for reasons, it said that bacterias multiply faster in...

    George Soros

    I'm curious what is the attitude towards this person in your countries, as well as your own opinion. here he is pretty unpopular, not sure why. his name is associated with some weird things like "ruining the national soul", Freemasonry (which is in turn associated with satanism for some reason...
