Fact and myths of witch doctors and shamans 


Witch doctors and mystic diseases are things, that are sometimes connected. Shamans are claimed to talk with the spirits. And at this point, we should describe the word "spirit". That thing might be the coded message, what shaman can get. So the reality is that those people were just loo for the markings, what were put to the forest. And in those markings were messages, who would get the poison, and why that punishment will be ordered. 

The thing, that shamans used to control their society was fear. If people didn't tell things to that witch doctor they will get punishment, and the reason was that the witch could see those things personally. 

So how some kind of witch doctor would cause the disease? One of the answers is the witch doctor just gives the victim some kind of poison, which might destroy some bacteria in the stomach, and then it would just cause the loss of some important vitamins. Or they simply give the overdose of vitamin A. 

Another version is that the witch just makes the small burn by using the stylus, what almost melted, and that about a millimeter-sized very deep can cause death in the jungle or even in the normal city area because bacteria can enter to the blood and tissue. That kind of thing is horrible but offers the scientific explanation for the power of shamans, and of course, shamans can train people afraid of them. 

The thing that shaman can do is just anesthetizing the area, what wanted to burn. And the use of very hot steam would make this kind of thing innocent looking. But the thing is that very hot steam can cause extremely bad tissue damages, especially if the person doesn't notice the dangerous heat. The key element in this kind of operation is that people cannot connect the pain to shamans. 

In this case, the normal punish and award methods are suitable for train people to follow the rules, what shaman gives. The thing is that if the person refuses, the result would be that some painful things like poison vegetables or mushrooms would give to the person. And if the victim follows the rule, the drugs like cocaine would give them. 

This kind of method is extremely powerful if the person wants to make slaves who obey him to the last breath. And the thing that will make those things more effective is that if the victim doesn't know that kind of thing can be done to them. Here we must remember that the things, that the shamans are doing are normally using are simple and effective.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...
