The issue of technology is different from that of the human biology you don't joke play with the human body under the guise of promoting technology. In the 60s or so some people said the milk of mothers is unsafe for newborn babies and introduced baby formula and those who bought into the nonsense ended harming themselves and their children. Look at the issue of GMO for instance the FDA has since place a restriction on it in USA and some other countries did the same, we know how it's touted as a great scientific breakthrough that will help in ending food insecurity and promote healthy living but the reverse is the case in most cases. So, this recent attempt by profiteers to market a bad product as safe and healthy is dead on arrival to me and should be resisted by the authorities.

The data and research findings will decide.

As far as I know, cultured meats aren't generally currently regarded as a healthier and safer alternative to organic meats.

Trevor012:
Who told you am Nigerian?

What's your nationality then?

Trevor012:
I always find animal rights activists stance on eating animals stupid and hypocritical.

That's because you're a Nigerian and your cultural values don't have special interests in or regard for animals.

In some cultures, people regard certain animals with special affection and/or respect.

Examples are how some Indians see cows as a sacred symbol of life, meant to be protected and revered; Americans love and cherish their pets, dogs and cats; some Ibos and even Indians and Australians consider it a taboo to kill certain snake species.

There are numerous other examples. I don't see how these beliefs are stupid, especially coming people that believe in all sort of religious, superstitious myths.

The articles address cogent health and environmental issues that lab-grown meats present.

Apparently, cultured meat technologies need a lot of optimization before they can be considered a healthier, safer and better alternative to the traditional methods of meat production.

More research still needs to be done on potential effects of growing meats in labs on health and the environment.

With ingenuity and creativity, it's possible to find better, healthier, and more environmental-friendly methods of producing meats artificially.

But the currently available techniques aren't sustainable.

In the past, humans thought feats like electricity, airplanes, mobile phones, Internet, and a slew of other breakthroughs are not achievable; however, history has proven them wrong.

The same thing, I think, will happen in this case as well.

World leaders are puppet answering to the call of their alien masters.

The eyes are useless when the mind is blind.

What's the call of these alien masters?

Amoto94:
This is bad news for healthy living and good news for pharmas. The argument of animal rights activists that eating animals is cruelty based on the fact that we are taking their lives holds no water because plants and the other alternatives they're presenting have lives too.

How are cultured meats bad for the health?

Cultured meats are grown in the lab and the process doesn't involve slaughtering of animals.

Please, learn more about they're synthesized here: https://culturedbeef.org/what-cultured-meat

Scientists will also create cultured foods (lab-grown rice, beans, wheat, maize, and others) in the future, provided these alternatives don't have any adverse health implications.

That will save plants from being harvested for food.

I see plants as living things that also have consciousness like humans, and animals as living organisms with consciousness.

Just that, human consciousness is starkly different and unique from animal consciousness and plant consciousness.

However, the fields of animal consciousness and plant consciousness still remain undeveloped.

Even, we barely understand human consciousness, let alone plant consciousness or animal consciousness.

As humans study and understand nature better, the way we eat and live will evolve.

Weldone Sir.
Is it the same book that helped you to be making assumptions and generalization beyond what your experience knew?

Your OP is obviously from your functional experiences and it's flawed as your thoughts about religion is inaccurate. Take that to the learning table again.

A wise person will try to get the book he mentioned above and read it.

I see you don't know much about Otem. (I only know little about him as well, but I have seen enough to rate his book very highly.)

His source for writing the book is Atum, the ancestor of ancient Egyptians that created ancient Egypt, taught them how to build the pyramids and other technologies.

If you consider the facts that ancient Egypt, a cradle of civilization, used to be a superpower in the olden days just like the US is today and that many Greek philosophers, who played key roles in laying the foundations of science and technology, traveled to Egypt for education purpose, then you'll realize Otem or his claims aren't to be taken lightly.

Ancient Egyptians were black people and Africans that called their country Kemet, not Arabs currently occupying it now.

Osimhen is playing impressively for Napoli and has netted once for the team.

His growth in the league looks good.

Katcall:
Chelsea fans are the most insatiable fans I've ever seen. From Mount this, havertz that, lukaku this, jorginho that, always complaining never satisfied as if they can play football when on the pitch. Look at them, just look at them and they call themselves football fans

One shouldn't be satisfied with mediocrity. The fact is, Havertz's and Mount's performances in games are mediocre.

Both of them seriously need to raise their game, especially the German.

https://www.freethink.com/entrepreneurship-innovation/cultured-meat-production

The commercialization of cultured meat has now been achieved, and lab-grown meat could soon hit stores. This is good news for animal rights advocates.

Lols

OtemAtum, how would you do teach lucid dream to a child? What practical ways can one use to remember one's dreams?

People won't say it but Kepa had a very good game yesterday

Consistency is key.

Amoto94:
I believe magic/sorcery exist but as for what you are calling me to do I'm a monotheist and I don't indulge in such practices. You can reach out to your alfa oni jalabi for that. If I have my way I will execute those who engage in sorcery because they wreck lives and cause havoc in the society

Hmmm. You're a fundamentalist/ahlu sunnah. Okay.

Walking dead.

It's only in Nigeria dead people would be collecting salaries, attending summits and conferences.

What a country!

Great game from Chelsea.

Meanwhile, believers in the efficacy of juju can enter this competition and win 2.5 million naira.

This is a good opportunity to showcase the potency of voodoo and get rewarded handsomely for it.

Let's settle this argument once and for all.

https://www.nairaland.com/6761238/win-2.5-million-naira-prove

Airmark, Segedinho, macjireh, Amoto94, and other religious people on this thread that believe in the supernatural, show us what you got.

It's funny how adults adults believe all these religious fairy tales that look childish. They're even an insult to one's intelligence.

OJURONGBE1:
It cannot make sense to a reprobate mind of yours.
How religion made Nigerian consuming economy rather than a producing nation with vast hectares of fertile land to grow foods, you need to tell me.

How religion made the electorates to infuse sentiment into their choice of leadership when there are well read, well travelled development & policy experts overlooked for leadership positions, you need to tell me.

How religion brought decay into our educational system by making professors & lecturers averse to new ways of teaching & reject modern devices because they are too conservative. Please broach this .

You need to tell me how religion blindsided your patronage towards foreign fashion when you can actually buy Aba -made leathers & wears to grow the naira. Please tell me the fault of religion in this.

Religion is the main culprit in all these issues you highlighted because the majority of Nigerians worship foreign gods imposed on them by the white colonial masters and Arab conquerors.

There are two ways of colonizing or conquering a people: physically through wars and invasions, and mentally through the use of religion (this is the worst of the two).

Thus, even though Nigeria became independent 61 years ago of British rule, the country is still in mental slavery due to the citizens worshipping the same gods introduced to them by their colonial masters.

I thought it would be glaring to any rational thinker that if you want to colonize a people, you surely can't give them effective systems of education and religion.

But it's surprising when many Nigerians would credit the whites for providing our forefathers with education and religion, without seeing the fact that truly educated people can't remain in slavery.

So, when the British missionaries built schools in Nigeria in the 19th century, they knew what they were doing.

"Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern, but impossible to enslave,” says Henry Peter Brougham.

But looking at the history of Nigeria, it's clear most Nigerians are just schooled (indoctrinated to think like a slave that despises his culture), not educated.

Schooling, reading to pass exams and earn a certificate, is different from education, teaching a person how to think.

You don't expect a country with the bulk of the citizens mentally enslaved and mentally lazy to have the ingenuity and critical thinking skills required to be a production-centric economy, not consumption-centric.

You don't expect a people that have deep-seated hatred for their ancestors, culture, and traditions to be productive and innovative. A river that forgets its source will dry up, says a Nigerian parable.

An average Nigerian dislikes giving their kids native names, hates putting on native wears, but you don't know that the foreign religions are the problem, and hardly can such a country become great.

It all starts from the brain and one's values. The brain is everything, and if a person is in the mental slavery of religion, they can't achieve greatness.

The day religious texts (the Bible and Qur'an) start to lose their value in the eyes of many Nigerians and many churches and mosques are demolished or converted to research institutes or schools, that's when Nigeria will start growing.

Looking forward to a wonderful matchday away to Spurs.

Trevor012:
Early morning nonsense from this clown

So says a slave.

Amoto94:
Unknown to the fool that religion is/was responsible for most if not all essential foundations for scientific breakthrough but in his mischievous mind he can't think of anything else other than to blame religious people for the woes bedevilling the world. If he was duped by alfa oni jalabi in the past due to his foolishness he shouldn't transfer the anger and frustration to others.

Of course, religion is responsible for almost all essential foundations of scientific breakthroughs when Christianity, from whom your prophet copied many parts of Qur'an from, killed and maimed thousands of early philosophers, scientists, and freethinkers over a thousand years ago, when Islam was still a local religion and Allah a local moongod in Arabia.

(To black history buffs, Allah has always been a local moongod anyway.)

I can see how religion is helping to lay the foundations of science in Nigeria when many brilliant scientists, most of which are freethinkers, are forced to leave the country annually, since terrorists and their cohorts like you will lynch them at any slight opportunity you get for saying the hard truths about Sharia.

Does Nigeria even engage in science in the real sense of it?

The way you rush to comment on a subject you're clearly ignorant about is appalling. Well, that isn't always surprising.

Slaves of Arabs are infamous for twisting historical facts to suit the parochial, religious agenda of their slavemasters in Saudi.

It's rare to see a person well-versed in history who is a slave. So, your poor knowledge of the history of science doesn't come as a surprise.

If religion has done anything in science, it's only to put a cap on the achievements of scientists over the past half a millennium, a conundrum resulting in circumscribed growth of science — human's greatest invention to study and understand nature.

OJURONGBE1:
[s]You malign religious people at every opportunity you get. How did religion cause under development in Nigeria?
If you do not appreciate religious principles, let those who abide in it live their lives.
Religion this, Religion that, as if the christain faith hasn't done any good in this country.
Some of us went to missionary schools in our formative years relieving our parents the burden of school fees & all. In as much as there are charlatans camouflaging as Pastors & preachers but don't lump everybody into one[/s].

Still looking for any atom of sense in this post.

When you're able to give a thoughtful, reasonable response to issues — and not merely react emotionally to things — I'd engage you.

[color=royalblue]But even below the poverty line, almost everything we purchase is imported. Definitely with dollars

The Tokunboh cars are imported using dollars.

The Chinese knock off spare parts are purchased using dollars

Your phone, screen guards, covers, chargers, usb cords, flash drives, laptops, laptop bags, are purchased with dollars

90% of our drugs are purchased with dollars

Should we talk about generators, gas cylinders, inverters, clippers? All in dollars.

I'm going to far... Our Toothpicks, Balloons, fancy slippers, dresses, are mostly imported. Still the same dollars.

Nigeria is fvvked already. I don't even think Abokifx is part of the problem in any way. We virtually produce almost nothing. So the demand for dollar is so high[/color]

We produce prayers, juju, fake miracles, and fake testimonies, all of which amount to nothing in reality.

When there are too many religious people (mentally enslaved citizens) in a country, that's what you get: massive under-development.

@Africaman
Hello to you.

Awesome... Thanks for this feedback on early Yoruba
history! Prof Akin Osuntokun even said there were already
existing or autochtonous communities in the Ondo
axis at the time of Oduduwa's arrival so Oduduwa's arrival
simply refers to the beginning of a new Dynasty and NOT
that he was the PROGENITOR of the Yorubas. A new Dynasty
he said should not be confused with the beginning or
origins of the people! He was the one who first opened
my eyes to the real history of the Yoruba area in 2004
because I didn't know that FACT before.


I will get Prof Banji Akintoye book "A History of the Yoruba
People" Hardcover by Stephen Adebanji Akintoye that you
recommended.


I should be able to get it at MMA2 or Lagos Airport Hotel
Book stores when I pass through. I have seen some massive history books
on sale on a wide range of issues at MMA2 from all over the world before.

He is a well-spoken historian of repute in Nigeria who I
have heard speak on Channels TV online before.

Incidentally he will be on Channels TV with Lado Akeredolu-Ale
at 9 PM [Nigerian time] today on the program called NEWSNIGHT.
I saw a preview of the program and look forward to watching it
online. Very brilliant man who also speaks extempore or offhand
with facts and figures.

I first came across the reference to Ikedu traditions in 1991 in a
magazine called roots and I shred the scanned copy with just
2 people on NL. If I check my Google Drive later on I can share
that article with you.


There is indeed more to know via archaelogy and radio carbon 14 dating
and also DNA sequencing on the history of the Yoruba people pre- and post
Oduduwa.

Thanks again for the feedback!


P.S. Don't forget to watch Channels at 9AM Nigerian time
for the interview with Prof. Banji Akintoye tonight.

Do you have a soft copy of Prof Akintoye book? If so, kindly send it to sciphya@gmail.com

Thanks.

Interesting thread.

Griffon:
I find this transfer news quite funny

Lols, the season of cross-carpeting in Nigeria's political arena is starting to get busy.

musicwriter:
I am not a kid, so I also set up intelligence on them. I was able to trick them to about 4 hotels and actually saw them. A friend was able to have sex with the wife and the other friend with the girlfriend of some of them. They're finished!!. If anybody; including the CIA and MI6 want to learn intelligence gathering, they should learn it from me. Mind you, they're reading this message.

I'll let you know when I return as promised.

Interesting.

musicwriter:
Note: I am not interested in your money, rather I want to see whether I can help. Also my phones and laptop are being monitored by the CIA, MI6 and their dumb African slave agents for the type of articles I write on my blog cause they believe I am revealing too much that they want kept secret for their continued exploitation of African people. If you enroll in my PREDATORLOGY course, the type of idea I'll give you would be one to legitimately exploit white people. But the problem is that it's big business that we can't afford.

How did you confirm the highlighted?

P.S.: Still expecting to hear from you as regards what I discussed with you last month, please.

Interesting thread.

Injuries will soon start setting in and we know only us and City have good squad depth.
