What If eye sight did not exist?

What would the world be like If all of humanity had never been able to see, never experienced eye sight and always been born blind...?

Would there be fashion designers? Maybe they'd be called texture designers... Would we even need to wear clothes half the time... How would we get around could we drive? Would the main cause of death be people walking off cliffs?

Radio would be more popular cause TV would not exist. Would people be judged on their voices and not their appearances...

What would happen if then one person was born with eye sight, how would this person explain or describe what seeing is to the rest of the world, when the word seeing would not even exist! How would they describe color when the word color does not exist or the sun and moon and stars...

Would this person be considered crazy? What if there is something like that now and we cant comprehend it because we don't have the words for it....

Maybe I should go to sleep.........

What is love?

The Scientific Explanation

Love is a chemical, its purpose is to help continue the species by encouraging us to reproduce and to care and bring up our children. Scientists are discovering that the same chemical process that takes place with addiction takes place when we fall in love. Some researchers say that we tend to be attracted to members of the opposite sex who remind us of our parents or even ourselves.

Psychologist David Perrett, at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland performed an experiment where he digitised and morphed photos of a number of participants into the opposite sex. He then asked them to choose which they felt most attracted to, he found that the participants always preferred the morphed version of there own face, without recognizing it as their own face.

Another factor is Pheromones, In animals pheromones are found in scents, sweat, prints, urine etc. They help them to find a mate and to identify a mate who’s immune system is different enough from their own to ensure healthy offspring.Human Pheromones were discovered in 1986 in human sweat. One experiment conducted involved women smelling the sweaty t-shirts of a group of men. They then had to select which t-shirt they were most attracted to, like animals most of the women chose the t-shirt of the man who’s immune system was most different to hers.

WAR... WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR???


While in space, Discovery’s astronauts put the violence in the Middle East in perspective, astronaut Stephanie Wilson saying: “Looking down at Earth reminds us that it’s a wonderful place and that we should all live in peace and harmony if we can.”
“We just flew over the Middle East and I have to tell you from up here, it looks peaceful and quiet just like the rest of the planet,” astronaut Piers Sellers told ABC News. I think all of us are mindful from flying around and around, this one little Earth that it’s all we have. This is humanity’s home and, hopefully, one day we’ll all get along.”

First Split Second Of the Universe...

Image by NASA.
WAMP (NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe satellite) measures the temperature of radiant heat left over from the Big Bang, which is theoreticaly the beginning to the universe.

Based on WAMP scientists have announced new evidence supporting the theory that the infant universe expanded from subatomic to astronomical size in a fraction of a second after its birth.

"During this growth spurt, a tiny region, likely no larger than a marble, grew in a trillionth of a second to become larger than the visible universe," said WMAP researcher David Spergel from Princeton University.

Pedro Talks to God...

This made me laugh :D

Pedro was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up toward heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me If you find me a parking place I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of my life and give up tequila Miraculously, a parking place appeared Pedro looked up again and said "Never mind. I found one.

Save The Butterflies...

I try to respect all forms of life on this great big planet of ours, but I see no reason why spiders shouldn't be exterminated.

Sure they kill other yucky bugs like bees, flies, mosquitoes, etc...But we have fly spray and aeroguard for that. And what about the pretty butterflies??

Half a butterfly's life is spent as a catapillar forced to crawl around on the ground or in trees until the time comes when its ready to break out of its cocoon, and fly free into the sky as a beautiful happy butterfly. This is when the spider strikes and puts an end to the innocent butterfly's short lived happiness.

The butterflies are then subjected to a slow painful horrifying death!!! First they get trapped in the evil spiders sticky web and are left there to contemplate their impending death, then the spider comes along and injects them with some type of imobilizing poison and wraps them up for later consumption.

So say NO to spiders and YES to butterflies, do your part next time u see a spider, KILL IT before it has time to spawn more evil eight legged million eyed butterfly murders into this world.

The following are useful weapons in the fight against spiders:

  • Shoes (preferably flat bottomed, so they cant hide in any groves)
  • Books (Thick ones, cause spiders can act dead and then spring back to life)
  • Bug Spray (Spray until its covered in white)
  • Machine gun (Must be a good shot)
  • Bow and Arrow (Must also be a good shot)
  • Rocket launcher (As long as u point it in the general direction of the spider you can't miss)


(The only spider that should be allowed to live is Charlotte from the children's cartoon "Charlotte's Web" she was nice, so no one kill Charlotte.)
