Comment Re:And nothing to be said about "non-profit" schoo (Score 2) 331

Your confusing the purpose of federal student loans with the purpose of a university. Lenders are suppose to give loans with a good faith expectation that the loan will be repaid. If schools are lending money out that can't be repaid by students then they should be cut off from federal support. Students can still attend those schools. They just will have to do it with their own money.

2 Timothy 3 14 to 16

You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness

At some level you need to decide if the Book of Mormon is scripture. You need to decide if the New Testiment is scripture. Or you can read it litterally and decide all text is inspired by God... even slashdot posts. Or you could read it more litterally and decide that only the sacred texts that were read by the literal person Timothy was writing too count.

Comment Re:Telomeres, tiny 'hairs' that split DNA for dupi (Score 1) 422

it should be harmless given your description. Doesn't mean it actually is. It could change the way some foods are digested. It could promote different digestive bacteria. It could chemically react with enzymes in your stomach. I suspect that it is none of the above. People who drink soda get fat. Fat people have more cells replicating/repairing than skinny people. You would expect that to lead to smaller telomeres.
