when,once a person succumbs to a potentially pandemic/epidemic causing disease, his body is not returned to his relatives for burial but is instead incinerated (usually by government executive order) for obvious sanitary/hygiene reasons in order to prevent further infection and try and stop the rampant pandemic/epidemic from spreading.
all the religious and superstitious spiel aside, and despite the fact that sanitation-hygiene prescribed corpse incineration was inefficiently used during The Black Death epidemic of 1347-1351 in Europe, IMHO sanitation-hygiene prescribed corpse incineration should still be considered as a viable option in treating the current Ebola outbreak in Western Africa

Get the sanitation-hygiene prescribed corpse incineration mug.The Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy offers this definition of the word "infinite"
Infinite: Bigger than the biggest thing ever and then some. Much bigger than that in fact, really amazingly immense, a totally stunning size, real "wow, that's big," time. Infinity is just so bigh that, by comparison, bigness itself looks really titchy. Gigantic multiplied by colossal multiplied by staggeringly huge is the sort of concept we're trying to get across here.

Get the infiniticy mug.The situation wherein a small group of nerds will tend to jump from tangent to tangent because each point gives other people new things they want to talk about.
"Okay, so my wizard will cast color spray on the three guards."
"Man, wizards are so overpowered"
"Wait till I get epic level and can teleport you into orbit of the planet. You can't get down unless you have some ability to fly"
"Wouldn't you just explode from the pressure"
"Actually, as long as you breath out, you can stay alive and conscious for a minute or so. And the people at spaceX have training for when this might happen"
"Man, I'm amazed that a privately funded space organization has gotten so far"
"It's what happens when you get a bunch of nerds together"
"And a lot of money"
"You don't need the money, one of my professors built a submarine with his friends"
"It must have been a pain in the ass to organize"
"Yeah, it's like herding cats, where one of them can weld really well!"

Get the infinite nerd recursion mug.a fallacy in which the argument proposes an explanation, but the mechanism proposed stands just as much in need of explanation as the original fact to be explained — and indeed it stands in need of the same kind of explanation. so it is tempting to apply the explanation to itself.
given the wordcosmological argument/word, the universe must have a beginning. the notion that the universe's origin came about by the random forming of particles in space, there must have been something to first put those particles there. whatever that something is, it must exist outside of time and always exist, lest you get into a series of arguments going further and further back until you have infinite regress.
example: the being 'linda' created all the particles that formed the earth, but who created linda? the being 'bill' created linda, but who created bill? etc. the argument goes on forever until there is a beginning, which was initially required according to the wordcosmological argument/word.
