Hummus makes my tummy glow, such a great snack!

@freemo
How much radium did you mixed in that?

@mur2501 Not much, the usual quantity.

@freemo
Soon radioactive poop will be ejected

@mur2501 We are all radioactive.. in fact the radioacitivity caused by nuclear tests from the early 1900s on has caused us all to become radioactive and it is a fairly accurate way they can test the date when an individual dies if your remains are found a good while after your death.. We will forever be cancer ridden and radioactive sadly.

@freemo @mur2501 Carbon 14 is a radio active isotope, it is used to carbon date how long living things have been dead.

The half-life of radiocarbon (14C) is 5700 ± 30 yr

@zleap

I was not refering to carbon-14. I am refering to isotopes which do not appear in nature and therefore their presence is due solely to nuclear testing. cerium-141 is the most notable in this sense.

@freemo
By the way how did you entered into science and became a doctorate

@zleap

@mur2501

I never entered it, I was always in it, I just never left.

@zleap

@mur2501

I mean that quite literally by the way. Since as early as I could start breaking things by taking them apart I was (as my mom will be quick to tell you :) ). Since the day I was born I insisted on understanding everything in the smallest detail... that just never went away.

@zleap

@freemo
I am also quite like that
Cause in childhood I had the daring to question religion (Islam) in my mind. Soon enough found out we are slaves of our beliefs and also good & bad is just a relative meaningless thing. This is a world of chaos in order, of inequalities in equalities, a world totally based on the observer
@zleap

@mur2501

I too became a very vocal atheist at an extremely young age and maintained that until I was a teenager despite my families strong christian background. As a teenager and beyond I have no longer defined myself as an atheist but rather "a beleiver in all religious holy texts, especially the contradictions"

@zleap

@freemo
I am still not clear about my beliefs.
I think I believe in chaos and paradoxes.
@zleap

@mur2501 @freemo I think the universe is a mix of chaos and at the same time seems to have some sort of logic and order which we have not quite figured out yet, hence we have just found a so called 'beauty' quark, still lots more to discover.

@zleap

I think there is more than just physical laws tot he universe. There is a reality that all the religions of the world have close to correct just with a lot of nonsense thrown in to mask it.. but the distilled version is valid and it goes well beyond just quarks and atoms. With that said I dont feel anyone one religion is anymore closer to correct than the others, mostly.
