Simple story of science.
There is a simple ideal that underpins science that is the old adage of "trust but verify". Results of any subject in science should be challenged and a form of experimentation should follow. This simple but powerful idea has generated some of the worlds greatest knowledge. Since the birth of modern science in the 17th century, science has changed the world beyond recognition an overwhelmingly for the better.
But like most other great ideas science can breed complacency. Most modern science will rely on shoddy experiments, which tend to lean towards too much trust and no verification.
Too many of the findings that fill the academic either are the result of shoddy experiments or poor analysis. There is a general rule of thumb among biotechnology venture-capitalist is that half of published research cannot be replicated. Even that number may be somewhat optimistic. One of the largest researchers Amgen found that they could only reproduce 6 out of 53 experiments "landmark studies" in cancer research. A group at the popular company Bayer could only repeat 67% of the total experiments after reading the papers that were submitted. After 80 thousand people in the Bayer study from 2000 to 2010 were involved in the study, the studies itself had to be retracted.
When you look at the most of the flawed studies, even the ones that do not put people at risk do nothing more than squander needed money in areas of proven science.
The genesis of this article is that science leads to Professorship and a hefty salary, and money that could be spent in more productive places. This harkens back to the trust me without verifying theory that has gone on in this country recently. Lofty careerism is the goal of exaggerated science. Therein lies the cherry picking in science. "Chose what is popular at the time and push the theory" without any verification mind you. Choose the numbers that scare the population and disregard the rest. This then leads to dishonest science and tends to lead us backwards rather than forward.
I could go on for ever about shoddy science but the point has been covered so many times it has become somewhat repetitive. Climate science is one of my pet peeves. No research in todays science has been published that has been properly vetted and verified to the point of exclusion or inclusion. All I see are a bunch of talking heads regurgitation the same old story with the same old science which has yet to be replicated and verified. The only goal here is to make someone a great deal of money. This is not why I became a scientist. I did it to prove my work and leave a mark on this earth for the better, not the money. But I think in todays culture most if not all scientist have lost that passion and think only of their next car or house they will by with money earned with half done research. Think about it in the 1950's through the 1960's scientist were the superstars, and the ground breakers and backed their work with experiments after experiments. Every kid I grew up with wanted to be an astronaut or a scientist or a doctor. Now it is about the money that draws them to football and basketball and other pointless endeavors. (A man that can cure the world of a plague will make 120.000 a year, a man that can score a touchdown can make 10 million a year.) I miss the the days of Armstrong, Aldrin, and others that paved the way for what has become the start of our future.

Parasitic Government (Thanks Barack)
I usually never write an opinion piece that is based on just my personal feelings. But at this point what the hell do I have to lose. I can see very clearly how we have become a very parasitic nation, and what I mean by that is Government parasites. You know the ones that run your everyday life, from health decision to taking your money and spending it on frivolous bullshit. I know my choice of language is somewhat extreme, but so are the times we are living in right now. We send our kids to schools that brainwash them. (Common Core) Now at 11 years old they are teaching our children about strap on dildo's and sex toys, and very graphic representations of sex. And all I hear is crickets. If you look at the statistics children are now having sex more at 12 and 13 than ones that are 18. What? does that make any sense to you. Children are more likely to have their first child before the age of 15. You know what I blame this on. Government intervention. That's right, a symbiotic set of people that tell you that the Government's way is the proper way to raise your children. It is as simple as this Government's raise little drones and families raise children.
It goes much deeper than you could ever imagine though. The government has become so intrusive they are involved in every aspect of every American's life. I read a story of a man living out in Washington State in an area where no humans exist, and he ran across a Game Warden and was arrested for hunting and fishing to feed his family. Why because he had no Government permit. The only way they knew he was there was because they were doing a fire flight and someone from the plane saw children playing in a field. Come to find out his family with several other families had lived there from more than a hundred years. The great Parasite Government came in and took his children and broke up several families and put the father and mother in jail for a laundry list of Government violations. I know I can sense that most of you would agree that the Government did the right thing. (But this was in no way a cult following, it was a group of people that just wanted to live free.) But when the children were tested they were smarter than the people testing them. They were more adjusted to life than anyone thought, oh but the Government report did say they had an unhealthy belief in GOD. (Bingo the Government's reason for breaking up several families) You know they did horrible things like say thank you sir or mam and they prayed over the animals they killed for food and blessed them. They read the bible everyday and none of them ever had a run in with the law. Why Because they lived 400 miles from the nearest town, and the nearest Government. They had formed their own community and it worked without Government influence. (But you could never show that as a success story because they had done it on their own. )
Now that was just a small taste of Government intervention that is and was unnecessary. Todays society has become so complicit with big Government solutions that we have become slaves to them and to THEIR masters as well. Our President is feckless and untried and really has no idea what the hell he is doing, our economy in in the shitter, but they make seem like things are great by inflating numbers that are not there. Just like their whole Global Warming or Climate Change BS. They have got 300 million sheep in pens to do with them what they may. This is not the peoples Government anymore it belongs to the rich politicians and large corporations. Look at Immigration. Mark Zuckerberg would love nothing more than to bring in cheap labor so he can fill his coffers with ass loads of money that just sets there and does nothing but give his ego a rip.
I can see the day when America will reach a tipping point and I believe it is coming very soon because we cannot continue to drag ourselves down this path any longer. She has been wounded by a feckless President and he has done such a good job I believe we may never recover. If you have read this we have become that family the Government has torn apart.

His Prophethood
One of the ways in which a person proves his prophethood is honesty, whether it be in regards to incidents in the past, in their everyday life, or things to come in the future. In addition to the Quran, there are many sayings of Prophet Muhammad which contain prophecies he made in his lifetime dealing with near and distant future. Some of them have come true, others await fulfillment. Hudhaifah, a disciple of Prophet Muhammad, tells us:
There are at least 160 known and confirmed prophecies of Prophet Muhammad which were fulfilled in his lifetime and the first generation after him.[1] I will mention some here.
(1) Preceding the Battle of Badr, the first and decisive confrontation with pagan Meccans in the second year of migration from Mecca in 623 CE, Prophet Muhammad foretold the precise spot every pagan Meccan soldier would fall. Those who witnessed the battle saw the prophecy come true with their own eyes.[2] ("The battle in Mecca took place because the people there knew he was false and a liar. When he entered Mecca the first time the people had seen him for who he really was a bully and a thief, so he went back to the desert and bought himself an army with money from his first wife. And anyone who opposed him were killed on site.")
(2) Prophet Muhammad prophesied the Battle of the Confederates (al-Ahzab) would be the last invasion the tribe of Quraish (the pagan Meccans) would launch against the Muslims. It was fought in the fifth year of migration, 626 CE and was the last military conflict between the two sides. All Meccans embraced Islam after a few years.[3] (Because if the they did not they were threatened with death " From the beginnings of the New Islamic Cult")
(3) The Prophet informed his daughter, Fatimah, that she would be the first member of his family to die after him. There are two prophecies in one: Fatima will outlive her father; Fatima will be the first member of his household to die after him. Both were fulfilled.[4]("For the few months that she survived following the death of her father, Fatimah found herself indirectly at the center of political disunity. In other words she was killed to get her out of the way")
(4) The Prophet Muhammad prophesied Jerusalem would be conquered after his death.[5] The prophecy was fulfilled when, according to Encyclopedia Britannica: “In 638 the Muslim Caliph, Umar I, entered Jerusalem.”[6] ("This was never a Prophecy because that war had been raging for years and the city was taken back and forth several times, it was surrendered in 637")
(5) The Prophet Muhammad prophesied the conquest of Persia.[7] It was conquered by Umar’s commander, Sa’ad ibn Abi Waqqas. In the words of Encyclopedia Britannica: (Lie)
“…raids into Sasanian territory were quickly taken up by Muhammad’s Caliphs, or deputies, at Medina - Abu Bakr and Umar ibn al-Khattab… an Arab victory at Al-Qadisiyyah in 636/637 was followed by the sack of the Sasanian winter capital at Ctesiphon on the Tigris. The Battle of Nahavand in 642 completed the Sasanids’ vanquishment.”[8] (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
(6) The Prophet Muhammad prophesied the conquest of Egypt.[9] In the words of Encyclopedia Britannica:
“Amr… undertook the invasion in 639 with a small army of some 4,000 men (later reinforced). With what seems astonishing speed the Byzantine forces were routed and had withdrawn from Egypt by 642… Various explanations have been given for the speed with which the conquest was achieved.”[10] (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
(7) The Prophet foretold confrontation with the Turks.[11] The first conflict took place in the caliphate of Umar in 22 AH.[12] (No evidence during his time he ever mentioned this)
(8) The Prophet foretold the first maritime battle to be undertaken by Muslims would be witnessed by Umm Haram, the first woman to participate in a naval expedition. He also prophesied the first assault on Constantinople.[13] (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
The first maritime battle in Muslim history was in 28 AH in the rule of Mu’awiya. It was witnessed by Umm Haram as foretold by Prophet Muhammad, and Yazid ibn Mu’awiya led the first attack on Constantinople in 52 AH.[14] (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
(9) The prophecy that Rome, Persia, and Yemen will be conquered was made during the Battle of Confederates in 626 CE,[15] under extreme circumstances, as is described by the Quran: (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
“[Remember] when they came at you from above you and from below you, and when eyes shifted [in fear], and hearts reached the throats and you assumed about God [various] assumptions. There, the believers were tested and shaken with a severe shaking. And [remember] when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is disease said, ‘God and His Messenger did not promise us except delusion.’” (Quran 33:10-12) ("Copied from his Christian Wives with (His Messenger) added for context")
(10) Prophet Muhammad prophesied an imposter claiming to speak in the name of God would be killed at the hands of a righteous man in Muhammad’s lifetime.[16] Al-Aswad al-Ansi, an imposter prophet in Yemen, was killed in the Prophet’s lifetime by Fayruz al-Daylami.[17] (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)
There are at least an additional 28 prophecies pertaining to the end times which are awaiting fulfillment. And the only way they would come true will be by men, not but by or never by divine inspiration.
Indeed these well-documented prophecies are clear proofs of the Prophethood of Muhammad, and that he was never a Prophet. But the people that came behind him and reveled in his blood lust and would have done anything to make him seem true will skewer the stories and falsely tell half truths and myths to make him seem more than he really was. Anyone who is talked into believing in this type of story telling is just looking for some truth in their lives and this is a fascinating story to lure disadvantaged youths to "The Warrior Prophet" but it is a lie. A Liar , Thief , Murder, Rapist , cannot be a teacher of the word of a true God and or a representative of the greatness that is Humanity. None of this type of behaviour has anything to do with the wonders of the Universe we live in and the beauty of life we experience everyday. All I see here is DEATH.
