Paradise Lost:

Satanists Don't Get It

Few literary interpretations are repeated more casually — and more inaccurately — than the claim that John Milton’s Paradise Lost portrays Satan as the true hero of the poem. The argument has become so culturally widespread that many people repeat it as though it were an obvious fact. Yet a close reading of the text shows that this interpretation relies heavily on selective reading, modern ideological projection, and confusion between narrative focus and moral endorsement.

Yet it is one of the many of such works many so called Satanists uses as a go to piece of literature they generally don't actually understand and demonstrate a profound lack of comprehensive literary skills.

Hippocampus Was Frozen to -130°C and Brought Back to Life

Its Synapses Started Working Again!

Researchers at Erlangen University Hospital have reported a striking advance in the preservation of brain tissue. Portions of a rodent's hippocampus were cooled to extremely low temperatures (around −130°C), stored, and later rewarmed in a way that preserved not only cellular structure but also measurable neural function.

The tissue was not merely structurally intact under the microscope, but showed signs that some of its biological machinery could still operate after thawing.What makes this result notable is not merely survival of cells, but the partial preservation of network-level activity — including synaptic signaling and plasticity mechanisms associated with learning.

In most previous cryo-preservation attempts, even when individual neurons survived, the coordinated communication between them collapsed. Here, evidence suggests that at least portions of that communication system remained functional.While this is not “reviving a frozen brain” in…
