* New study finds babies cry in the womb
A new study has revealed that unborn babies cry within the womb. Ultrasound videos taken of infants within the womb revealed 28-week-old babies crying in response to a noise stimulus.
Scientists played a 90-decibel noise to the unborn child, roughly the equivalent of a tummy rumbling, and recorded the effect the noise had via ultrasound. “It was strikingly like an infant crying,” said New Zealand pediatrician Ed Mitchell, who contributed to the US study, according to New Zealand's The Age. “Even the bottom lip quivers.”
* Harvard to Investigate Origins of Life
Harvard University is joining the long-running debate over the theory of evolution by launching a research project to study how life began.
The team of researchers will receive $1 million in funding annually from Harvard over the next few years. The project begins with an admission that some mysteries about life's origins cannot be explained.
"My expectation is that we will be able to reduce this to a very simple series of logical events that could have taken place with no divine intervention," said David R. Liu, a professor of chemistry and chemical biology at Harvard.
* 1 in 6 base morality on Bible
Survey: About 35% of Americans believe in absolute truth
Just one in six American adults say they make moral decisions based on the Bible, according to a new study.
The evangelical Christian Barna Group, which conducted the research, said about half of adults make moral choices "on the basis of specific principles or standards they believe in."
The survey of 1,002 adults of all faiths aimed to find out how many Americans live by a "biblical worldview," described as a "life perspective on the basis of several questions about religious belief."
Other common means of making moral choices, according to the study, include doing what feels right or comfortable, 24 percent; doing whatever makes the most people happy or causes the least conflict, 9 percent; and pursuing whatever produces the most positive outcomes for the person, 7 percent.
