Re: Dear big Sis,

Re: C CT

Yes, restraint, and not callousness, is the word of caution here

Re: Dear Kabu ma’am,

When Oppenheime, the discoverer of the atom bomb saw the first detonation of a nuclear weapon in 1945, a piece of Hindu scripture (The Bhagavad-Gita) ran through the mind of Robert Oppenheimer: “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds”. It is, perhaps, the most well-known line from the Bhagavad-Gita, but also the most misunderstood.

Oh, I love this. It's deeper than it seems on the surface, isn't it? Yes, Man has been gifted with many abilities and how s/he chooses to use them is the key. We can make monsters or we can enhance out world. What seems like an easy choice often isn't. I won't wax poetic or any other way but, thank you, once again, dear Guru Brother Aba. Beautiful.

There is always a choice. I suppose at times the experiment goes forward relentlessly.

Good morning

Having a mate is what most people desire. If God had intended for us to walk alone, he would not have made a mate for Adam. Merry Christmas.

It does make one think about Man and what he can do with science.

Oh desr teacher, I agree with every word written here. I am so grateful for the truth science can bring, for the good that say a vaccine can bring but when say Atomic energy is let loose to test what it can and will do...my heart breaks.
