The banana is one of the most amazing natural things in the world.
Sure, early humans bred the crops for optimal qualities, etc.
But the fact that the bananas even existed in the first place...
That's still amazing. I had two of them for lunch today.

ITT: the science of bananas

course not
have you ever taken an IQ test were religiosity was specifically taken into account?
has anyone you know?
very few people will have, this will have been an isolated test (if not a blatant lie) and the sample size used to graph this (if any) definitely wont be big enough to make global assumptions linking religiosity with IQ.

FYI, shinto, like most religions, has its own version of the creation myth.
and ive usually found that creationism doesnt stack up too well with good intelligence...

[Anonymous No.4145997]

probably politically motivated. as far as i can judge from the guys i know, the jews were the smartest

[Anonymous No.4145999]

Why is this even up for debate? The graph is clearly bullshit. Let's get back on topic, yous guys!

Banana's, they cool. They can hang around for a while more.

It's because Shinto are only Japanese. Asians, especially Japanese are smart, nothing to do with the religion.

What about plantains? Indigenous Amazon people's diet is like 70% plantain.

[Anonymous No.4146012]

>>4146007
It does have to do with the religion. The average IQ in Japan isn't nearly as high as the Shinto IQ. This suggests that the intellectual elite is religious as opposed to the average-tier atheist masses.

[Anonymous No.4146030]

that would explain why shinto is freaking me up and i was never able to understand it.

[Anonymous No.4146056]

wikiquote: Shinto has been called "the religion of Japan", and the customs and values of Shinto are inseparable from those of Japanese culture. Many famously Japanese practices have origins either directly or indirectly rooted in Shinto. For example, it is clear that the Shinto ideal of harmony with nature underlies such typically Japanese arts as flower-arranging, traditional Japanese architecture, and garden design

Cucumbers are actually awesome too.

1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need every day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc.

[Anonymous No.4146871]

2. Feeling tired in the afternoon, put down the caffeinated soda and pick up a cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source of B Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that quick pick-me-up that can last for hours.

[Anonymous No.4146882]

3. Tired of your bathroom mirror fogging up after a shower? Try rubbing a cucumber slice along the mirror, it will eliminate the fog and provide a soothing, spa-like fragrance.

(Stupid Flood Detection BS!! I can't post it all and the fukken shit is giving me shit now for breaking it up into parts. LOGIC FAIL)

[Anonymous No.4146886]

4. Are grubs and slugs ruining your planting beds? Place a few slices in a small pie tin and your garden will be free of pests all season long. The chemicals in the cucumber react with the aluminum to give off a scent undetectable to humans but drive garden pests crazy and make them flee the area.

[Anonymous No.4146889]

5. Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite before going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or two of cucumbers along your problem area for a few minutes, the phytochemicals in the cucumber cause the collagen in your skin to tighten, firming up the outer layer and reducing the visibility of cellulite. Works great on wrinkles too!!!

I garnish my gin and tonics with cucumbers and use Hendrick's gin, which has rose petals and cucumber as ingredients.

That's the extent of my interaction with cucumbers. Oh yeah, and cucumber sandwiches.

[Anonymous No.4146910]

10. Stressed out and don't have time for a massage, facial or visit to the spa? Cut up an entire cucumber and place it in a boiling pot of water, the chemicals and nutrients from the cucumber will react with the boiling water and be released in the steam, creating a soothing, relaxing aroma that has been shown to reduce stress in new mothers and college students during final exams.

[Anonymous No.4146920]

11. Just finish a business lunch and realize you don't have gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds to eliminate bad breath, the phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath.

[Anonymous No.4146925]

12. Looking for a 'green' way to clean your faucets, sinks or stainless steel? Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the surface you want to clean, not only will it remove years of tarnish and bring back the shine, but is won't leave streaks and won't harm you fingers or fingernails while you clean.

13. Using a pen and made a mistake? Take the outside of the cucumber and slowly use it to erase the pen writing, also works great on crayons and markers that the kids have used to decorate the walls!!
