KALI MAA - WHO IS SHE ?TODAY most of the world have lost the knowledge of who is kali maa ? they see her as a goddess of destruction . but why a goddess of destruction has been worshiped since the time of predated history ?  the answer is simple she despite her fearful appearance she is not the goddess of destruction ... and to understand this we should see why she is been worshiped by people of India for so many years even from predated time .
To start first - We worship “Kali Maa - As The Mother of all Creation , the protector of all innocent ” 
Now the propose of this JOURNAL is to understand and explore some ancient meanings and ideology about Kali Maa .
So the first question-  “Who is Kali Maa ? & Why to Worship Her ?  or what Kali Maa is a Symbol of ?”

The Answer is simple she is the mother of all creation, she has given us more than we could imagine, she is with us from the time of birth and

Harvard Scientists Say Mysterious Cigar-Shaped Object 'Oumuamua May Have Been Alien Spacecraft

Scientists from Harvard University are not ruling out the possibility that 'Oumuamua, the cigar-shaped interstellar object, was actually an alien spacecraft.
Was 'Oumuamua A UFO?
Last fall, 'Oumuamua (meaning: a messenger from afar) zipped through the inner Solar System.
Sailing To The Sun
In the study that will be published in The Astrophysical Journal , Loeb and team presented two possibilities: 'Oumuamua is a light sail that was ejected from an advanced technological equipment created by an intelligent alien race or it is a probe that was meant to check out the solar system.
There is a possibility that 'Oumuamua is an alien space probe. The study pointed out that the visitor's discovery alone

world.
An adequate comment on youtube:
"He deserved it....not sympathy for him.... He went there to teach them about god and was sent to god for further discussion.... He could have easily wiped out that civilization by bringing those disease to tribesmen to which they are not immune.... He was stupid, arrogant and maybe mentally unstable.... bringing a 2000 year old god to a 60,000 year old tribe ...... and it is so much protected that even indian navy is not allowed to be there nor are any researchers...... He deserved what he got."
Why do these people always think, that they're allowed to meddle into the lifes of others? What makes them think, that they have the solution for everything, what THEY think is going wrong

Would Guns Have Saved the Jews in Nazi Germany?The following is a quotation which sums up the issue perfectly.  It's far too long to make into a quote-picture, and too important to shorten, so I am sharing it here:
"[There's] this perpetually obtuse point about how the Jews of Germany could have saved themselves if only they had enough Mausers in their basements... The people who argue 'Jews fell victims because lack of guns' seldom clarify whether they are thinking of 1932-33, when the Nazis entered power, 1934-37, when they subordinated Jews, 1938 when the state greenlit pogroms, or post 1939, when the Germany army and SS murdered millions.
You know what pre-1933 Germany did not lack? Heavily armed private militias, that's what it did not lack. The Communists had the Red Fighters Front: 130,000 men, many of them veterans, armed with pistols and clubs. The non-Nazi Conservatives had a vastly bigger and more powerful private militia, the Steelhelmets, and so even did the law-abiding Social Democrats.

What Intelligent Design is and is NOTWhat is intelligent design?
First and foremost ‘intelligent design’, also commonly referred to as ‘ID’, is a fraud, scam, hoax and a deception to conceal its true identity which is nothing less than christian biblical creationism wearing a lab coat and pretending to be something else. It attempts to falsely imply that it is not precisely and intimately tied to the christian mythology by refusing to openly state who or what this asserted ‘designer’ is except when discussing it within a closed circle of fellow believers. Outside that sphere those at the forefront of this propaganda campaign pretend ‘we just don’t know’ which is a blatant falsehood as each and every one of them are an openly professed evangelical christian who also espouses creationism either in the young earth or less frequently the old earth version except in the context of this hoax.
This type of rhetorical flip-flopping is best exemplified by William A. Demb
The Bible, What it is and is NOTWhat is the bible?
First of all in simplest terms it is a version of the Jewish Tanakh presented as the ‘old testament’ coupled with a series of apocryphal letters, missives, propagandized sermons, epistles, professed ‘divine’ revelations and other materials relating to the alleged life of, supernatural events attributed to and ideas claimed to have been stated by an itinerant first century CE Jewish rabbi most likely named Yeshua though later transcribed as ‘jesus’ under the heading the ‘new testament’.
In broader terms it is, first taking the Tanakh into consideration, a collection of fables, legends, folklore, allegories, parables, perceived prophetic visions and myths written by unknown authors over a period of several centuries used as both a creation mythology and a quasi-historical record of the early Hebrews tribes. According to the most widely accepted concept among linguistic, religious and historical scholars much of the

TAIA: Party Like It's 1933 EditionA lot has been talked about racism against blacks and Hispanics in rural and small town America. But I feel that anti-Semitism in these communities is often overlooked. Like I said, I live in a small town and I have a partial-rural background. I actually have witnessed an anti-Semitic outburst personally. It's also a fact that militia movement really hates Jews.
So that brings us to our story: an anti-Semitic incident in the very red state of Arizona. A Jewish girl was given this lovely cupcake for her birthday.
Her friends made it because they thought it would be "funny". Here is what the girl's mother had to say:
I thought long and hard about writing this, but you know, it’s better to lose some aquaintences than remain silent. This is not a political post, but i believe this has EVERYTHING to do with the political environment we’re now living in. I think everyone who knows me knows i don’t “have an agenda”.

Transitional Hadrosaur DiscoveredPaleontologist Elizabeth Freedman Fowler has unearthed a hadrosaur called Probrachylophosaurus bergei which appears to be a transitional form between Acristavus and Brachylophosaurus: http://www.themarysue.com/new-hadrosaur-dinosaur-missing-link/
So that's another transitional fossil to add to the list. Of course, I doubt the Ken Hams of this world will acknowledge it.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi on Perspective by CorSecAgent
Not Even Wrong"There is a scientific term which I really like that is “not even wrong,” and these are ideas that are so far off the mark they’re not even worth discussing. I’m worried about participating or giving oxygen to ideas that are not even wrong lest I lend them a credibility as something that’s debatable."
-Adam Savage
"Not even wrong." That's an incredibly useful phrase that is applicable to many situations.

Creation Science Hits a New LowSo, I've been out of the YEC loop for a while now, but apparently it's gotten pretty weird recently because the "floating forest theory" is a thing now: http://www.godofevolution.com/friday-fun-requiem-for-a-brain-and-the-natural-historian-goes-too-far/
The "theory", or rather, groundless hypothesis suggests that a Eurasia-sized antidiluvian floating forest accounts for the trillions of tons of coal buried underground, which could have only been made from more trees than have ever been on Earth’s dry land at any one time.
This just... there are no words that I can think of to adequately argue against this idea because it so obviously does not come from any place of reason or evidence. The floating forest is not supported anywhere in science or in scripture. This only drives home the point that critics of YEC have been trying to communicate for years: that creationists are really not promoting a Biblical worldview, but a completely fabricated mythology. They may as well just admit

MLK's philosophies on nonviolent activismI was just remembering how I would share this journal every February, whether because it is Black History Month or Valentines day (maybe both or something else?) but I just love how MLK's ideas on effective change making are intertwined with philosophy on kindness and love. You probably haven't heard from me for a while since I stopped being very active, but I wanted to pop by to share this. Does any of this apply to the recent tragedy in Parkland? How do you feel that these teachings are received today, and do they apply to the modern issues of today? I'm curious to know your thoughts.

Could a Trump Presidency End in Revolution?This was based on an article that showed up on my Facebook feed. If anyone can relocate that article for me, you will get a cookie. 
This is a frightening possibility that needs to be considered. Donald Trump and Viktor Yanukovych have a lot in common.
Both are populistsBoth are billionairesYanukovych was very corrupt. The Donald Trump administration is mass corruption waiting to happen due to all of the conflicts of interest going on*.Both love Russia.
We all know how the Yanukovych administration turned out. We need to considered the possibility of this in America. Donald Trump has the lowest approval rating of any president-elect in history and he doesn't show signs of wanting to build bridges with his critics. I think this might actually go up due to broken campaign promises (Psst. Donald. Hiring Goldman Sachs members to your cabinet is not "draining the swamp).
So is there an Amerimaiden waiting to happen? Possibly. Be prepared for anything.

Welcome to 2017

:iconlimnoria:

Now that everyone's past the date line and in the new year, welcome to 2017!  We hope you have all been enjoying your holiday season.

For active watchers and members of this group, I wondered if I could have a few moments of your time to get your opinions on where you would like to see this group go in 2017.  What submissions do you like and dislike, and why?  What messages beyond secular humanism would you like us to emphasize?  Do you have an suggestions for new folders or art?

The current steering of this group in the new year is to renew focus on our core value of secular humanism, and keep political artwork to a minimum of informed pieces.  The "Icons and Humor" folder has also grown, such that in the coming weeks it will be split into "Icons, Symbols, Etc" and "Humor, Satire, Comics."

Your voices help improve this group.  Let them be heard.

And may you all accomplish your resolutions in 2017!

Group Info

WE ARE NOT YOUR PERSONAL ATTACK GROUP. DO NOT COME TO US IN ORDER TO ATTACK DEVIANTS.

Secular Humanism: a worldview that promotes human dignity, naturalism, and morality without the necessity of a divine overseer, and asserts that religious ideologies should not be attached to the vehicles of government.

This group accepts the religious who believe that church and state should be kept separate, for the good of both. And if you are an atheist, agnostic, humanist, freethinker, skeptic, or otherwise nonreligious person, come meet like-minded people here at Secular-Human!

This group will occasionally post artworks that contradict each other. The "common ground" section may have a genuine "coexist" deviation while the "secularism" section may have one that reads exactly opposite. Artwork supporting opposing political parties may appear. This group features art supporting both Israel and Palestine. We are mature, rational members of deviantart, and we can debate in a more-or-less comfortable atmosphere.

This group accepts controversial deviations as long as the controversy is actually real.

Enjoy your stay in Secular-Human!

Christians EXPOSED part 1so all I do is submit a meme to imgflip.com about what Christians do unto young people in order to get them to bow down unto their evil “god” and their vile ways of life and then this evil vile Christian replied with this:
“Obviously you have never read and understand the Bible- Old Testament is full of rules showing mankind on it's own can never be righteous enough. As the only "religion" that utilizes prophecy to prove it's validity, the Old Testament has 109 specific prophecies regarding the first coming of Christ, mentioned 300 times- all fulfilled, such as born to humble beginnings in Bethlehem (marked by the Roman census), crucifixion as the method of execution (prophesied about 700 years before crucifixion was used for executions) the Book of Daniel prophesies the exact date Christ would ride into Jerusalem (remember the Jews kept an accurate calendar to never miss the Sabbath) Before you say the Old Testament was revised to match what Christ did, the Ol
