From time immemorial we humans have been thinking that the earth is a place which God built to teach us some manners. No religious texts seemed to mention another animals specifically and importantly as we. Everything was about us. We were the center of universe. Well this study puts one more bullet hole in that theory, because scientists found out that there could be more than 1 trillion species housing this planet. And we're just one among them. Oooh that sucks! Yes that's right, you've heard me, scientists have proof for that now. This profound work is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). It's such an amazing and groundbreaking effort by the scientific community,trying to map the biological diversity. The number of living beings shot up because this time extensive mapping of microbial life has been done. Usually people ignore the microbial diversity because they are invisible to the naked eye.

But the line which separates them is so narrow and thin that one would never be able to find the breach until it is too late. History is the witness for that. Take the example of Turkish nationalism, which cost many Albanians their precious life. It started just like any other patriotic uprising, but when it started to equate religion with nationality; nobody knew, until it exploded, in the form of an ethnic cleansing, where Christian Albanians were murdered mercilessly. A wise man always learns from other's mistake. We should also. The way it is going in our country, people are confused and confused mind is easy to manipulate. They don't know where and whom to turn, who is genuine and who is foxy.  Our honourable PM pleads for unity of our country.
