"That life expectancy several hundred years ago was only 35 or so.
The average age was lower due to incredibly high infant mortality rates. However, if you could survive infancy/childhood, you’d likely live well into your late 50s or 60s."

#15 Yeah, the entire light spectrum is between microwaves and dangerous radiation. That's not to say microwave movement of water molecules is safe in itself, but the beam has to be active and big, and you really gotta hold still.
#17 Yeah, there is a LOT of misconceptions about the world wars because news media is not an accurate source of info, and we tend to glorify our own side and demonize the other. Without that demonization it's harder to convince soldiers to die. That's the issue with modern warfare... communication technologies, so you can actually call someone and find out truths. That's why guns and drone technology is great, it's makes it a removed game so you don't have to face the consequencesof your actions.
#18 Urine contains all the waste of the body, including dead/alive microorganisms and garbage minerals. But generally sterile means no living organic material, and for the most part a healthy person doesn't have living organic material in their urine.

Virdie,
i mean it makes sense. jews are still crying about that holocaust to this day. even though there were plenty of equally devastating events.

Molly,
The fact that everyone knows about the holocaust (because there are countless movies and documentaries made every. single. year.) but know next to nothing about the man other instances of genocide that have happened in history (many of which were far worse) is roof that jews run the media industry.
Everyone wants to get mad when you say that, but it's as true as things get.

okay, so only the ones with the biggest devastating events are allowed to cry about that? Is that what you're saying?

#1 Calculated by Eratosthenes in 270 BCE. He was a brilliant polymath and chief librarian at the great Library of Alexandria. He accurately calculated the Earth's circumference to be ~40,000 km, and to quote the great Carl Sagan: "Eratosthenes' only tools were sticks, eyes, feet and brains."

Jeremiah,
I love that one flat earther story. "If the earth rotates once in 24h, you'd observe a gyroscope drift 15 degrees an hour." So they got an aircraft gyroscope, powered it up and it drifted 15 degrees an hour. "It can't be right, the gyroscope must be broken".
That's how they work. Don't accept facts unless they fit your theory. If not, the fact must be wrong.
