Body hacking is actually just a subset of biohacking.
Biohacking is bigger and wider than this.

B.T.W are there any biohackers in Nigeria?

Your thinking is very irrational, if you do not believe you ancestors existed, then how did you came to be? You fell fron the sky? undecided.
I am talking about your own ancestors though, cos I have evidence of mine but not of yours.
How much rational can I get?

Your gene, DNA is a physical evidence of your ancestors, you don't need pictures to prove a thousand years people..[/quote]
Gene, and DNA are not physical evidences duhh.
I thought u were the one making allegations about Musa, Muhammad and co not having pictures to verify their existence.
Now you know pictures are not needed to prove existence of a thousand years people and I agree.

If you have anyone to be Moses or Muhammad genetical link, you can provide them with scientific evidence. Although there are physical evidence of Muhammad(still a debate tho).[/quote] Really bro, show me scientific evidence and the genetic tree of your family ancestry from your progenitor till now.
There is genealogical tree of d prophet though.








TingTinz How do I quote each questions raised correctly?

What's this one saying? undecided
My existence alone shows my ancestors existed, My gene can be traced to all my relations/linage past or even future, it is called genetic ancestry or genealogical test.
Hen Hen, so you mean your ancestors existed? Interesting.
I do not believe they exist cos I haven't heard of or seen them before.
In fact you might just be a programmed robot behind the keyboard, so why should I believe your assertions.



So in your small mind, you believe Prophet Muhammad does not have descendants or ancestors that are genetically linked?
Or Prophet Musa doesn't have descendants also?

Islam for Muslims / Re: Fate And Destiny In Islam by Teetotaler: 11:23pm On Oct 04, 2017
Fate and Destiny according to the Qur’an and Sunnah

It is also important to understand that Allah has knowledge over all things. Almighty Allah knows what will happen to us before we do. Allah knows the outcome of all of our decisions. Allah has stated in His Book, the Glorious Qur’an, that everything that will happen throughout all creation was already written.
Almighty Allah says:
No calamity befalls on the earth or in yourselves but it is inscribed in the Book of Decrees (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz) before We bring it into existence. Verily, that is easy for Allah. (Al-Hadid 57:22)
The Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) stated: “Allah wrote down the decrees of creation fifty thousand years before He created the heavens and the earth.” (Muslim)
From these statements, we understand that Almighty Allah has written all things in a Book of Decrees known in Arabic as Al-Lawh Al Mahfuz, and that this was done 50000 years before He created the heavens and earth.
This does not mean that we are forced to walk upon a certain path, or that we have no freewill. This only means that Allah is already well aware of all actions that we will take, and the outcome of these actions.
At the same time, whatever we choose to do is governed by the Will of Allah. If Allah does not will for something to take place, then it will not happen no matter how hard we try. And if He wills for something to happen, it will take place no matter what we do to stop it.
Muslims must believe in destiny, or more accurately, Divine Destiny (Qadar). But we should not believe in Fate, in the meaning that “an event (or a course of events) will inevitably happen in the future.” Nothing is inevitable as Allah has control over all things. Allah controls the Divine Destiny. People who accept fate or that certain thing is inevitable, are fatalists, and tend to leave things to it.
But, a Muslim who believes in Qadar (Divine Destiny) will try to live according to the laws of Islam, pray to Allah for guidance when making decisions (Istikharah), and put their best effort forward in everything they do. Then, they leave the outcome of these actions to Allah and accept whatever He has decreed.
In summary, Muslim’s belief in Qadar (Divine Destiny) is made up of four things:
• Understanding that Allah’s Knowledge encompasses all of creation and He knows everything that His creation will do, even before they do.
• Believing that Allah has written all that has happened in the Book of Decrees (Al-Lawh Al-Mahfuz).
• Accepting that whatever Allah decrees will take place, and whatever He does not will, does not take place.
• Knowing that Allah creates all things, including the actions of His creation.
Accepting Allah’s Qadar (Divine Destiny) will lead us to a more satisfying and productive life

Islam for Muslims / Fate And Destiny In Islam by Teetotaler: 11:22pm On Oct 04, 2017
What is Fate and what is Destiny in Islam? Let me ask you a question. When you woke up this morning, did you know that you would be reading this article? Most likely, you did not. Most likely, you made a random set of choices that led you to this page. In a small sense, these choices you made, brought forth your destiny which was reading this page.
Also, it is your freewill to continue reading. You have the choice to stop reading now and do something else. Whatever you decide to do will affect your destiny. Many people are confused about fate and destiny. They are not sure how much freewill they really have. They are not certain if they have the freedom to make their own choices, or if Almighty Allah has forced them upon a certain path.
Here are a few things you should keep in mind:
• Allah is the Creator of all things, including our actions.
• Belief in Allah’s Power, Knowledge and Control of all things is one of the six articles of faith in Islam. This is called Qadar, loosely translated as Divine Destiny.
• A person has the freedom and choice to do as he or she wants.
• We have no control over the outcome of those choices.
• The outcome of these choices is our destiny. Only Almighty Allah knows what this destiny is.

Do You Control Your Destiny? Or Are You A Slave To Fate?
Say for instance you decide to go into business for yourself. You do all the necessary research. You consult others in the field. You draw up a sound business plan and line up multiple investors. You do everything possible to ensure that your business is successful.
Does any of this guarantee that your business will be successful? Not, at all. The economy may falter. You may have miscalculated certain expenses. A natural disaster might wipe out everything you own. There are innumerable occurrences that could adversely affect your business.
It is vital to the Muslim’s belief that we understand this concept. After all, the word Muslim means “one who submits to the will of Allah.” By accepting Allah’s Power, Knowledge and Control of our destiny, we learn to submit to what He has prescribed for us.
Belief in Qadar, divine destiny, prevents us from becoming too boastful or too despondent. When tragedy strikes us, we must understand that it is the Will of Allah, for it to happen. That way, we learn to accept it with patience and humility rather than despair and frustration.
Of course, one may become saddened or upset about unfortunate events in their life. We are only human and itt is natural to react in a certain way with tragedy that befalls us. However, the Muslim understands that no matter how difficult the tragedy is, it was within the Will of Allah, and we should not let it paralyze us.
If something good happens to us, belief in Qadar will prevent us from becoming too boastful or arrogant. Many successful people believe that they have attained their wealth and status because they are inherently better than others. Or that they are smarter, wiser, stronger or just more deserving of success than others.
The truth is, they have no control over their success. They may have made certain choices, but it is Allah that made those choices work out well for them. If they had control over their success, they should be able to control every aspect of their life and never face any sort of adversity. But the reality is that even the most successful individuals face some hardships at some point in their life.
Man may choose a certain path. But it is Allah’s Will that controls what destiny that path will lead them.

A wet dream would only happen when the sac storing your sperm gets full and needs fresh supply.

Nature has a way of doing its thing. grin
Nice one.
Why do some set of individuals attribute it to mammy or pappy water?
That means they are indirectly advocates or practitioners of randy unmarried sex.

So that means women don't have wet dreams, cos no excess sperm to release.

I'll advise you to check into a regular hospital.
That is where you can find doctors on 24/7 duties.
Majority if not all medical doctors i n school health centres, hold regular jobs in hospitals.

Everybody was at a time in their lifetime brainwashed cuz the most easily set of people to brainwash are kids(clean mind, no prev religion believe, no knowledge etc). But it s now left for them to liberate themselves when grownup or continue to be prisoner in their own identity.
That is one of the reason black nations are progressing at snail speed, we spend more time, resources and energy on religion than education, industry etc.
If everybody decide to follow the same part, I guess no one will have time to invent the phone they are using to pass Anointing on phone

With the way Africans encounter God, I just imagine y Jesus didn't come from this continent.
Religion(Christianity) is like Hiroshima bomb, its full potential was known after it was dropped during second WW so also Christianity main goal (mental captivity) was fully established in Africa.
If you guys encounter anything, I am confident they are jinn.
The same jinn some Alfa uses, pastors, herbalist, witch & wizard for miracle, magic etc. Just like humans, there are good , bad and powerful once too. Stop making fool of yourself.
