In an experiment featuring nonlinear optics, delayed choice and EPRtype correlations, the possibility of faster–than–light communication appears not totally implausible. Attempts are put forward and discussed to refute this claim. Quantum theory and special relativity theory are the cornerstones of today’s physical perception. Obviously their intrinsic consistency as well as the consistency of ...

The mammalian pregnancy is an immunologic challenge to the maternal immune system. Considering the fact that transplant rejection is a well-defined immunologic phenomenon, the peaceful feto-maternal coexistence during mammalian pregnancy has been defined as “a paradox of nature” and puzzled immunologists for ages. In 1953, the immunologist and Nobel Prize laureate Sir Peter Medawar proposed tha...

On our planet, every human being carries the same genetic material and the same four-letter genetic alphabet. Accordingly, there is no basic genetic superiority that is defined by race, ethnicity, or religion. We do not expect, based on genetics, that a human being of American or French origin should be superior to a human from Africa or Latin America. Moreover, it has been repeatedly proven th...

Moral philosophies are arguably all anthropocentric and so fundamentally concerned with biological mechanisms. Computationalism, on the other hand, sees biology as just one possible implementation medium. Can non-human, non-biological agents be moral? This paper looks at the nature of morals, at what is necessary for a mechanism to make moral decisions, and at the impact biology might have on t...

pericardial hemangioma is very rare and their coincidence with other visceral hemamgiomas is exceptional. we are reporting a 72-year-old man with an incidentally discovered pericardial hemangioma during coronary artery bypass graft (cabg) and mitral valve replacement surgery and a prior history of multiple hepatic cavernous hemangiomas. this case has been reported due to its extreme rarity. to ...

This paper explores how group preferences develop among children living in the post-conflict context of Kosovo and this development shapes children’s willingness to be close their outgroup peers segregated majority (ethnic Albanian) minority Serb) members. The study was conducted four ethnically divided primary schools, with 220 participants aged 6–10. Children played a series games tasks which...
