Fracking chemical used in US linked to organ damage
An unidentified chemical used in fracking in the United States has triggered concern after it emerged it can cause kidney and liver damage.
A subsidiary of Nabors Industries Ltd pumped a mixture of chemicals identified only as "EXP-F0173-11" into half a dozen oil wells in rural Karnes County, Texas, in July.
One ingredient, a solvent, in the blend of chemicals can cause kidney and liver damage, according to information about the product that Michigan state regulators have on file.
A year-old Texas law that requires drillers to disclose chemicals they pump underground during fracking, was powerless to compel transparency for EXP-F0173-11. The solvent and several other ingredients in the product are considered a trade secret by Superior Well Services, a Nabors subsidiary, meaning they are exempt from disclosure.
Drilling companies in Texas, the biggest oil and natural gas producing state, claimed similar exemptions about 19,000 times in the year up to August, according to their chemical-disclosure reports.

Things that are beyond our perception do exist.
Just because we do not visualize entities in their natural state does not mean they do not exist.
We as humans are limited as to what we can achieve, mentally and emotionally. Therefore we become stunted in our growth, this puts us at a great disadvantage.
If the bible is a truth made up of meta-fores and half hidden truths then why is it that the rest of our history or culture can not be looked upon as the same?
We have went through generations of families that sent words only through spoken language, not written. This tells me that the line of generations are just as the lines in school. The one that at the first of the line were a simple sentence was given then by the time it reached the end of the line it was a jumble of incoherent babble.
This world started from a beginning and will end in a timely fashion. In between this is our time to try and discipher the truth and which is the right path.
Ours is a very small window of time to look for the truth.
I only pray that we all find the path that is right for each of us.
May we all meet again on the other side, with the full knowledge that is promised. The bible states that we are made in the image of god, (whichever one is) and that he created us in his image.
We were given free will. Allowed to chose. The angles had to be born through water to try and redeem their soul in the eyes of god. The bible states this if one can learn to read.
The bible also says that only those that have eyes shall see and only those with understanding shall know the truth when it is spoken.
