What are we doing?
There has been a thought that has been nagging me for a long time now. Why is there so much wrong with our world? Well to cut to the point, we are what is wrong with the world. I am not expecting this essay to receive any likes, nor am I really expecting for it to be published but it needs to be said. We have all been fed this idea that someone in the world must be hated. No one has said it bluntly like that obviously, because of course no one would want to agree with that. It is, however, very true. Everyone feels that they must hate someone.

Before Salem: The Real-Life Werewolf Trials That Plagued European Nations
On October 31, 1589, in the German town of Bedburg, Peeter Stubbe was strapped to a wooden wheel, the flesh torn from his limbs with burning pincers, his arms and legs ripped from his torso. Using the blunt side of an ax-head, his limbs were broken, his head cut off, and everything burned on a pyre. His daughter watched in horror as she herself was flayed, strangled, and burned alongside him.

B-Power
Let's forget about the conspiracy theory and focus on the facts. We are simply magnificent! Especially our brains. Like a millions of super fast and super functional computers. With 80-100 billion nerve cells, known as neurons, the human brain is capable of some astonishing feats. Each neuron is connected to more than 1,000 other neurons, making the total number of connections in the brain around 60 trillion! Neurons are organized into patterns and networks within the brain and communicate with each other at incredible speeds.

Christianity
I would first like to start by saying that these are my own opinions I have formed discussing different faiths with different people. All opinions in here are my own, and I have no intention of offending or forcing anyone into my way of thinking. I have added links I found helpful so you can see my research, as we look through the different ideas and questions you may have.

What's the Difference Between a Casket and a Coffin?
Many people used the word "casket" and the word "coffin" interchangeably because they both serve the same purposes. However, there are some differences between the two containers for a deceased person. The major difference is their appearance. They do not look the same. The only thing they have in common is that they hold the remains of a deceased for burial and for display during a funeral service. It is the family's preference whether they choose a casket or coffin for their deceased loved one.

Truth Bomb
Knowledge fosters truth and truth feeds reason. The ultimate goal of philosophical analysis should then, therefore, be the development of reason through the revelation of truth. Truth, though, requires continual development, because although certain knowledge may seem like a universal truth, universal truth only comes with complete understanding of all things, all elements, and all the intricacies of existence. No one can claim to possess universal truth, because no one, as far as we know, is universally aware.

The Beautiful Costumes on Downton Abbey
The costumes used in Downton Abbey are extremely authentic and beautiful! The research which must have gone into these costumes must have taken hours, maybe even days. The fact that some of the costumes were real dresses that had been actually worn in the 1900’s - 1920’s, fascinates me.

Kalpana Chawla
At the opening of the Kalpana Chawla Memorials, it contained a plain suit, photographs, details of his life, and a flag held by Colombian astronauts. The exhibition also featured aircraft suits, photographs, and flags hoisted by NASA and a spaceport as a reminder of the astronauts who had collapsed in the Columbia disaster.

Niels Bohr Life Biography
As the main fashioner of Copenhagen's meaning of quantum machines, Niels Bohr has assisted with building our comprehension of how nature functions at the nuclear level. At the point when Bohr understood that old-style physical science had fizzled at something far more modest, he changed the molecule so electrons could enter every one of the allowable ways around the core, while other pathways were not.
