A Brilliant Person Sharing Blissful Ideas

If you read one thing online today I would suggest you make it this incredible article by Robert Lanza, M.D. What Are We? New Experiments Suggest We're Not Purely Physical.

And if you like that, his pieces What Happens When You Die? Evidence Suggests Time Simply Reboots and Does Death Exist?: Life is Forever, Says Theory make me want to do a little jig around the office, which would no doubt quickly get me fired and launch me on whatever new adventure is around the corner.

Who is this Robert Lanza, to fill us with such invigorating, hopeful ideas?

How's this for a bio:
Robert Lanza is considered one of the leading scientists in the world. He is currently Chief Scientific Officer at Advanced Cell Technology, and a professor at Wake Forest University School of Medicine. He has several hundred publications and inventions, and over two dozen scientific books: among them, Principles of Tissue Engineering, which is recognized as the definitive reference in the field. Others include One World: The Health & Survival of the Human Species in the 21st Century (Foreword by President Jimmy Carter), and the Handbook of Stem Cells and Essentials of Stem Cell Biology, which are considered the definitive references in stem cell research. Dr. Lanza received his BA and MD degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, where he was both a University Scholar and Benjamin Franklin Scholar. He was also a Fulbright Scholar, and was part of the team that cloned the world's first human embryo, as well as the first to clone an endangered species, to demonstrate that nuclear transfer could reverse the aging process, and to generate stem cells using a method that does not require the destruction of human embryos.

That was a very interesting article. I forwarded the article to my oldest grandson.

I read that article and then promptly sent it to my brother who considers me loony to believe the things I believe. But then I definitely think him looney for believing the things he believes. He's a big Fox News watcher.
