.... anomalies or deficiencies, by introducing specifically engineered genes into a patient's cells. It comes in two distinct forms, each of which must be looked at separately because of their distinctly different applications for the future of medicine and human society. Somatic gene therapy entails the alteration of genes within non-reproductive cells, all cells excluding sperm and eggs, thus theoretically having no influence upon the genetic make-up of future generations.

.... During the 1960’s a man by the name of Timothy Leary would cause a cultural revolution that questioned the perception our society had on hallucinogen drugs. He believed that if people were educated in the use of these drugs that these drugs would be the next step for the evolution of the human mind. Hallucinogenic drugs like LSD and psilocylin have been embedded in the roots of human evolution.

However, attempts at economic reform in China were not solely due to generosity on the part of the Chinese Communist Party to increase living standards.

.... commitment to live together as one in society is a need that every couple, gay or straight, should be allowed to have. There are many misunderstandings about what homosexuality really is, the mistaken assumption that gay people enjoy the same civil rights protections as everyone else.

The largest misunderstanding of gay relationships is the stereotype that gays are promiscuous, unable to form lasting relationships, and relationships they do form are shallow and uncommitted.

You can't kiss anybody and nobody can punch you in the nose, but a lot can happen within those boundaries.

.... gives the moral book a place on the shelf of every individual who can read and write. Genesis, Exodus, Job, and Matthew are a few selections that begin to explain the creation of time into the lineage of Jesus Christ.
