Most of the time when a picture or video has been faked or photoshopped, you can probably tell if you look at it carefully. Their usually isn't something quite right, about it, that most people will miss.

Fun fact : take a jpg directly out of camera, don't change anything about it, and tell people you photoshopped something in it.
It's pretty funny to get answers like "shadows look totally wrong" or "his head is far too big for his body" :D

Insightful indeed.
My girlfriend has been dealing with post-partum psychosis for 2 years, and she's slowly getting better.
At first, she was so impacted by the illness that she didn't realize it and was kinda happy the way she was.
That left me alone with a kid and a very sick girlfriend.
I'm an atheist, but I'd loved to have this invisible friend next to me, loving me and giving me strength to fight every single day.
I know faith doesn't help for everything and doesn't answer every question, but it was the only time in my life I "found my lack of faith disturbing" :D
Now? I'm happy and proud we've done it without an imaginary friend.

First, this guy developed the first transgenic soybean, which has then been sold by Monsanto ( http://www.sciforum.hu/programme/speakers/paul-christou-research-professor-university-of-leida-spain.html ). What else is he gonna say?
Then, there's enough food everywhere for everybody provided : it's seasonal, regional and mostly vegetarian.
Sure, if you want huge steaks for every meal, with tomato salads, mango and strawberries for dessert all year round, you'll need a lot of antibiotics, pesticides, GMO's, oil and water.

Satire does not look pretty upon a tombstone.
