Alan Guth has it put this way:

What I tried to point out was that AFAIK people don't hallucinate about things in which they don't believe.

Since you are not a believer, the voices in your head would not be those of God but rather of your neighbors, FBI, maybe aliens (if you believe in them), etc.

I guess we could call a nuclear DNA, 'software', and all the rest involved in the process, 'hardware'. (Ignoring for simplicity mitochondria and various microbes which are absolutely necessary for the organism to develop and to function and which have DNA of their own.)

Sure, it does. Of course, it can. There is no issue with these.

This is right. The weight is electrical grounding. No questions here.

Yes, all mass could be grounded by mass. The question is answered. Case closed.

I don't see that opponent around anyway...

I don't know how difficult it is for a none-mathematician to understand mathematical induction, but I don't think they would have any use of it.

which brings us to the infamous thread of a year ago: A reverse panspermia - Evolution, Morphology and Exobiology - Science Forums

DNA by itself is not useful. You need a right "machinery" (environment) to run this code to produce an organism.

And yet most people say that biology is simpler than math (or maths), pick a biology rather than math class, and run away or faint just at a sight of an equation. Math uncovers a simplicity hidden under a complex appearance.

Sorry, but being both mathematician and biologist by formal training, I call both statements bs.

What damages the skin is UV, while white cloth reflects a visible light, not necessarily UV. Wear black under white, like polar bears.

I wouldn't say these understandings are flawed. They are just different and are used for different purposes. BTW, there is also a mathematical induction, where a conclusion is as certain to follow from the premises as in deduction.

Is 'and/or' a proper or literary English?

Maybe a learning disability disorder?

After I die my body will go through well-known physical processes. The hereafter is not ruled out as a possibility, I just don't think it is an actuality. The cherry-picked list omits many good and happy things this world has.

I don't believe in reincarnation and in "eternal and immortal soul [that] cannot be made nor destroyed." Not sure about "space, space-time, gravity, energy, time", but matter certainly can be made and destroyed. I don't know if "Nature and TIme have already been in existence forever", if "Time extends infinitely into the past as it does the future" and if "little planet Earth and the far-from-perfect human race is the best they can do for all of evolution." The world is not "crappy", and the quoted list is cherry-picked.

The thing that intrigues me most about human body is its evolution.

Saying "either ... or ..." implies exclusive or. Inclusive or is just "... or ...". Like in, e.g., "Single digit numbers divisible by 2 or 3 are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 9."

What is "blood people"?

No, it is not, because one statement is not a negation of the other. Plus, being (or not) a contradiction is a logical rather than physical attribute and as such it does not depend on observer.
