So are you implying that taking Oxytocin is being encouraged in order to make people more accepting of refugees and other such groups of people?

I can't open .PDF files on my device. Can you copy/paste your abstract?

Reality is all about probability and chaos theory.

First of all, I'd like to state that this isn't any kind of request for medical advice, I'd just like to share a personal experience that I find interesting, I've suffered from chronic depression and anxiety issues for several years, however I have had the same dream several times that I can remember: I'm starting University and I'm really happy and excited to be there, moving into University accommodation and starting a new life, etc. While I can remember the excitement and anticipation that I feel in my dreams, I can't summon those same emotions in my waking state. My question is: Is this a recognized phenomena?

What does he mean by "normalize"?

I wonder how much better this new forum works for me posting from my Vita. Will it save my line spaces without needing to reload the page with JavaScript switched on? [edit] It does! Whoohoo, the upgrade was a complete success. :D

Would it be possible to have a "zero energy" tachyon? Surely by virtue of existence it has at least some energy, shouldn't it? Could this energy be in discrete quanta so there's a definite limit to both the highest and lowest value of the energy variable?

There's a hypothtical particle called a tachyon that, if it was real, would move at faster-than-light speeds. While tachyons are popular in science fiction involving time-travel stories, there's nothing to suggest that tachyons are actually real things that exist.

Bigotry is nasty and unnatural.

Is the weight of the tectonic plate keeping the magma in the mantle pressurized?

Even if evolution was somehow "disproven", that still doesn't mean Christian creationism wins by default. You still need to prove that Christian creationism is the "correct" one.

I like to think that if the Universe is a simulation, then the speed of light is an artefact of processing speed and that time dilatation is just like lag in the RAM. Or whatever the appropriate computer analogy would be.

Why are you specifying "evolution" as opposed to, say, anything else that produces an increase in complexity such as "sperm + egg = fully grown adult human"?

Oh that's easy. It's cats.

Probably the government.

What does a "free state" mean? Does it mean free from a corrupt government?

I'd want to be whatever species this God is.

Is there a valid connection between the idea of multiple Universes and brane theory?

Would this be "numerography"?

Do you have the mathematics to support your ideas? The Big Bang Theory is a "feasible solution" because it's an explanation of what we directly observe to be fact.

An an interesting aside, check out some pictures of spider webs produced by spiders exposed to various drugs such as Caffeine or Chloral Hydrate.

So... you're promoting Lamarckian evolution?

Maybe you should try to convince the Christians of this rather than the scientists. The Christians are going to be your first hurdle.

Oh no! This obvious oversight into a model of reality - that has applications in everything from medicine to farming - has completely brought down the institution of scientific knowledge and investigation, like the house of cards it is. Well, I guess I'll just have to reject science and convert to Hinduism instead.

Isn't Antarctica a white land? I suppose if there is a correlation between non-caucasian people and a high rate of STD's, then the first step is to determine the cause. I think the most likely cause is lack of education and lack of access to condoms. The cause of THAT is probably likely to be either from poverty or religion (contraception is a sin, etc).
