Bizzare, Weird and Scary 1st Meeting

[Daveman]

...
"woah, that's never happened before", and "it worked earlier" as well as, "it was really this big, but it got away, honest".
...

I've used all of those lines... especially that last one... guess there's a some 'psychic in my sex life'! Viva Viagra!

What is love???
 

[Muzh]

Which may result in...
 
 

[Muzh]

Because of this...

On the other hand :

[Daveman]

Love... here's what I'm talking about...

Daveman, that was really crass.

 
Save it for the man cave later on. I'll bring the beer.

Maybe so  ...I didn't realise that US television allowed ads even as tame as this one (remember the French condom ad someone posted a few months ago?).

If anything is "miraculous" it's our immune system and how amazing it is at keeping us healthy.

Absolutely it is a miracle.  And consider all the other marvels of life and nature.  And how we evolved to what we are today.   A miracle indeed.
 
I have studied biology and other natural sciences as part of my particular engineering curriculum.    Mind boggling.  Indeed, the more I learned the more I realized how little we know.     

All of us should be immensely grateful to how this came to be.  Grateful to what?  At least grateful to the creation process. 
 
I have a religious friend who was not religious until he started a honey bee business and studied the behavior of this small insect, and some behaviors can still not be explained.  He and I conflict when I say it was  the result of a random and endless chain of events over eons of time.  I really get him going by saying the honey bee is mentioned in the Quran more than any other animal. 
 
Yet he knows I respect the miracle.   It makes me wonder as well as marvel.   And this is just the natural side of life.

I just saw Gator's response to this and I can't believe I missed it.
 
Miraculous indeed. And the reason our immune system is so amazin is thanks to something called the variable region of the immonoglobulins. I've heard colleagues state that it took an act of god for our bodies to develop in such a way. With all the technology, it is still mind boggling how it works. It just works.
 

Psychic healing does not work in precisely the same way that homoeopathy doesn't and, conversely, it works when it does for exactly the same reasons and those are gullibility and the placebo response.

I think I understood this.
 
Doctors will tell you that during their rotations they learn the power of self-healing. They study topics on psychosomatic events but to actually be part of it, it is a different ball game.

I can say in regard to phenomenoen of the senses, that it is my experience that leads me to believe that we have not yet discovered the essence or the means to measure certain abilities/senses/intuition, or whatever you wish to call it.
 
Durring my life, I have spent over 20,000 hours working underwater and at least half of those hours were in white shark infested waters. After some time in the water, I developed a sense of danger (many have had the same experience and not only in connection with diving).

Wow.....

[Muzh]

Uncanny.
 
Gylden, did you know that most of the research conducted today is trying to replicate some of the shark's immonoglobilins?
 
Good catch.
