pupose of life-why are we here and where are we going?

sooner or later,almost everybody wonders what the purpose og life is.Why are here? is it to work hard to improve our living conditions,to provide for our families,to die after perhaps 60 or 70 years,and then to be non-existent forever? A young man who felt this once said that there is no other purpose of life than"to live,to have children,to be happy qnd then die." But is that true? And those death really end it all? confuciab scholar Tu Wei-Ming said:"the ultimate meaning of life is found in our ordinary,human  existence." According to this view,humans would continue to be born,struggle for existence,and die. There is little hope in such an outlook.and is it even true? Elie Wiesel,a survivor of the Nazi death camps in World War II,observed that:"why are we here? is the most important question a human being has to face.....I believe that life has meaning in spite of the meaningless death I have seen." But he could not say what the meaning of life was.

Finally: Vaccine Breakthrough As Experts Generate Immune Cells To Stop Spread

*Chronic pain common in people living with virus An effective Human Immuno-deficiency Virus (HIV) vaccine may be a short step away now scientists have overcome a major stumbling block hindering its development. The big hurdle has been the inability to generate immune cells that stay in circulation long enough to stop the Aids virus spreading.International researchers believe they have solved the problem by ‘unblocking’ a process linked to an HIV protein that was halting the production of antibody-generating ‘B-cells’ from the immune system. Lead scientist Professor Jonathan Heeney, from Cambridge University, said: “For a vaccine to work, its effects need to be long lasting.“It isn’t practical to require people to come back every six to 12 months to be vaccinated. We wanted to develop a vaccine to overcome this block and generate these long-lived antibody producing cells. We have now found a way to do this. “What we have found is a way to greatly improve B-cell responses to an HIV v

Must Read: The world will end on September 23, Christian numerologists claim

A Christian numerologist claims that the world will end next Saturday, September 23rd, when a planet will, supposedly, collide with Earth. According to David Meade, verses in Luke 21:25 to 26 are the sign that recent events, such as the recent solar eclipse and Hurricane Harvey, are signs of the apocalypse. The verses read: "25: There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.' "'26: Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.' Sept. 23 is a date that was pinpointed using codes from the Bible, as well as a "date marker" in the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Meade's views are not endorsed by Roman Catholic, Protestant or eastern Orthodox branche

Riot in St. Louis for the second night after white ex-cop who shot dead black suspect is acquitted; protesters storm the Mayor's house, burn a US flag

Protesters in St. Louis, Missouri blocked roads on Staurday night on a second day of demonstrations after the acquittal of a former white police officer who was charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a black suspect in 2011. The protests started on Friday and continued on Saturday night. Last night's demonstration started as Friday's did, with an estimated 1,000 angry people marching peacefully in streets near downtown and later things heated up as they continued into the night. On Friday night, protesters surrounded the home of St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson, broke two windows, and threw red paint at the residence before some 200 riot police arrived and dispersed the crowd. Ten police officers were injured in the process and 13 demonstrators were arrested, police said. It was not known if Krewson, a Democrat, was home at the time of the protest. At one point, protesters were able to walk up to the front door of the house and knock on it. They then gathere

Psquare back with another Fight? Try me this time, I swear Nyash go open - Paul Okoye

There's been underground gists that once again, all is not well in the Psquare camp and this past week, we've had our eyes on the social media page of the twins and truth be told, they've been throwing shades and subliminals. Though no names have been mentioned but just a few minutes ago, one half of the Psquare, Paul Okoye shared a post on Instagram that's a bit obvious who he's referring to. His caption reads, 'Back to naija. Don't take my silence for granted. Only a woman can come where there's peace and destroy it #youknowyourself. Try me this time, I swear Nyash go open. You will know that blood is thicker and stronger than juju'. Take note of the keywords, 'Blood is thicker' which means he's referring to someone in his family. Then, the sentence 'Try me this time, I swear Nyash go open' refers to their last fight in 2015 where his twin brother, Peter Okoye did all the talking while Paul kept quite. Peter has not been sil

What a great win for Man U?!! Mourinho's men bash Everton 4-0 on Wayne's Rooney return to Old Trafford

Manchester United showed their title credentials on Sunday night as goals from Antonio Valencia, Lukaku, Martial and MKhitaryan brought a glorious end to thirty minutes of mixed feelings for Wayne Rooney, on his first return to Old Trafford since his summer move to boyhood club, Everton. Jose Mourinho, had earlier asserted that Everton with their caliber of players should be fighting for the top four spots, drawing ire from Everton boss, Ronald Koeman. Antonio Valencia scored with a first-time strike from 18 yards to give Manchester United the lead before Everton came close to levelling through Wayne Rooney after 47 minutes but he fired straight at David de Gea. Defender, Ashley Williams gave the ball away to allow Romelu Lukaku pick out Henrikh Mkhitaryan for the next goal before Everton fell apart as Romelu Lukaku pounced to make it 3-0 before Anthony Martial ended the game with a penalty. Rooney must have wished to score on his Manchester United return, but at the moment, the Red

No, Hillary shouldn’t just shut up

Hillary Clinton’s new book criticizes Bernie Sanders, and has reignited a controversy over progressive unity, women’s rights, and whether the two are mutually exclusive. I expressed the concern that, regardless of whether Hillary’s criticism of Bernie in the book was right, taking shots at Bernie now risked reigniting a Democrat civil war. And, I argued, the last thing progressive need right now is fighting each other instead of Donald Trump. A number of women who voted for Hillary argued that sexism played a huge role in Hillary’s loss, the issue had to be discussed, and asking Hillary to put it off was sexist. Many of them also called me sexist and racist (yes) for suggesting the Bernie criticism was ill-timed. They argued that sexism played a huge role in Hillary’s loss, the issue had to be discussed, and asking Hillary to put it off was sexist. As a longtime Hillary supporter, who has criticized Bernie a LOT for being divisive, I feel justified in holding Hillary to same stand

Fox Sports analyst Clay Travis tells female CNN anchor about his love of “boobs”

Unbelievable. Fox Sports analyst Clay Travis just told CNN’s Brooke Baldwin that he loves “boobs,” in a conversation about ESPN host Jemele Hill calling Donald Trump a white supremacist. Baldwin was taken aback at first, and once she confirmed what Travis had said — he continued to talk about his love of boobs, repeatedly — Baldwin said she was appalled and ended the segment. Travis is now crowing on his Twitter feed about having just sexually harassed Baldwin. Is Fox Sports okay with this? Here is a short clip, I’m certain CNN will be posting the entire thing shortly.
