A new disease that has now infected more than 10,000 households and their pets. Research is now showing that nano technology is responsible for infecting people with this disease everyday.

Morgellons? = I'm from Kentucky and I don't think that grows in this state? Nano technology? = I watched the super nanny program on FOX one time. Sorry, just a dumb old hillbilly here.

Though Morgellons is very real so is the nano technology and "nanites" that affect humans - there are a lot of possible answers as to why they are not warning people, and some very valid opinions that lead to major conspiracy theories. Report Abuse

Why didn't the CDC implement procedures in all USA hospitals to eliminate MRSA by 99% like Norway did? Norway hospitals swab every patient before they are admitted to test for MRSA and then keep them strictly isolated for the protection of all, but not here, because of MONEY, so the MRSA spreads here Report Abuse

Morgellons disease is still not understood and has been confused with other illnesses. It is confused most often with an illness called delusional parasitosis (DP). Morgellons causes a sensation of something crawling on the skin leading patinets to scratch and this scratching also causes scratch marks that distract the doctors from seeing the lesions caused by the disease. At least one scientist examining a skin biopsy, viewed with high magnification, has seen clumps of fibers in the skin. This suggests some illness may be causing the fibers to build up under the skin and may be responsible for other lesions and this illness may also be causing the distressing skin sensations. I am guessing that because Morgellons disease superficially resembles a psychiatric illness (DP), and Morgellons has not been defined adequately, the CDC may feel that they cannot accurately tell people about it and the CDC may feel that warning people about it may not prevent it. Also some dermatologists who have seen patients with this disease feel that many people with suspected Morgellons actually have another illness. It is very likely that some people who have symptoms of Morgellons disease actually do have something else. As of June 2006 CDC is investigating this illness and needs to establish diagnostic criteria to define Morgellons and separate it from other illnesses before it can discuss it with more certainty. CDC does not seem to be hiding the possibility that this is a real and not yet understood disease, but just cannot comment on it with certainty.

nano techology? what is that?

Creationists how come penicillin didn't end infectious disease?
Medford
Penicillin, the first antibiotic, was, at the time, labeled as the "wonder drug."it single-handedly reduced the death rate from diseases such as pneumonia by 1,800%. (statistics come from the comparison of death rates of world war 1 to after the use of penicillin in world war 2)if evolution is as ridiculous as you all say it is, then please explain to me how ~3/5 of all staph infections were penicillin resistant (statistic is derived from a post WWII analysis) in just 6 years after the mass production and mass use of this drug (since, due to the earlier statistic, only ~5.6% or 1/18 before were resistant.) where did the other 55.4% come from?
Jefferson
They forgot to rub Jesus wafers over most of the penicillin supply and so it wasn't as good

This is the basic of the science: organisms can vary within kind or/and devolve. These Scientific facts validates Biblical accounts. Thus, gene pools can become extinct but cannot reappear/evolve. Two gene pools from two different area can recombine & vary within kind to become more viable, but extinct (not separated) gene pools are gone forever. Devolution such as mutation is the opposite of evolution. Devolution is science. Evolution is against science. People got malaria. People with sickle cell anemia do not get malaria. Is sickle cell anemia the result of evolution process? If not, how come the people resist malaria? Think. Think, The answer: sickle cell anemia is not an evolution process. Sickle cell anemia is a devolution (mutation or degenerative) process that causes immunity to malaria. Now think about all those scientific facts and think how penicillin can become ineffective? Is it like malaria?

Because we all know viruses mutate when people talk about evolution as nonsense they are talking about macro evolution, the ones that mention animals and humans evolved from one animal to another, this is only speculation and has not be observed by the human eye.

Many creationists accept that organisms can adapt slightly, yet they can't accept the fact that enough time worth of adaptions can lead to the emergence of new species.
Needham
From what I've read, most of them believe in micro-evolution, the little changes, but not macro, the big changes.
Mount Clemens
Simple adaptation. God made all his creation to be very adaptable. It has nothing to do with evolution.
Wilburton
My fundie sister uses words like micro evolution and adaptation. Aren't they cute?

Don't make them say the E word, that is more than they can handle.

Wow, you have totally demolished the straw man you set up. Beautiful, but worthless. Creationists have always believed in the great variety of information held within DNA such that viruses, bacteria, plants and animals can change within their species. The evidence for such change, as you so cleverly note, is obvious to the most casual observer. However, no one has ever produced any significant evidence that one species can change into another species. Consider the 10s of thousands of generations that fruit flies have gone through in the arena of science. All that radiation and the other DNA transforming assaults...and what do we have....fruit flies.... some pretty bizarre fruit flies, but fruit flies.... science has never even made a fruit fly produce a house fly. Game, set, match.
