Number 15 is sure right, they don't recieve the proper medical attention, because they were never taught how. Or could it be they couldn't afford it.
Number 2, 7, 8. Does it mean that it just seem longer.

There are more signs of this than 15, if you look at it from a scientific perspective.
Take nature for example, everything is connected in some way shape or form, from the tiny micro organisms to the largest mammal, fish, bird, or plant. Even the earth itself. The zpf enables every single thing in the entire universe communicate with one another within a timeframe that is faster than light itself. . .
Everything we think we know today, will be proven wrong, or off the mark at some point in the future, tonight, tomorrow, or next year. Unless we allow religion to block our work. The only limitations are those we impose upon ourselves via human thought and fear.
Death is not the end of it all, but rather much like a caterpillar metamorphosis's into another life form, so too does the human spirit/soul, and those of you who believe that we will either burn in hell, spend eternity in purgatory, or go to the utopia of some higher being, or just fade to black, are all in for a rare treat when you see what the reality of it all is. . .
And I plan to giggle like a little girl at the reactions; the wonder, the frustration over a physical life spent in "servitude" over ill founded fears of human creation, and the ever-present wow moments of realization and discovery. :biggrin:
