Progressive lenses are complete garbage! The fact that you need to wear them for several days for your eyes (and your brain) to adjust to them speaks volumes. Keep in mind you will also see very poorly for the first few days.

I got some progressive lenses for my second ever pair of glasses. My first pair did not have bifocal lenses. I wore the progressive lens glasses for a few minutes in the store. Took them off, drove home, and tried to wear them at home. I hated them so much that I went back the same day and returned them. I have had lined bifocals ever since and have not regretted it one little bit.

I would spend billions of dollars ensuring that Trump dies poor and homeless.

Not clanker but simply: Clank!

Try to think of how a bad actor might use what you are suggesting to steal someone’s identity. The trouble with any identity verification system is not just how inconvenient it is, but also how criminals will try to abuse the system.

Some kind of entity would have to be in charge of storing and verifying the DNA data. Once that database is created, there will always be the potential for exploitation. Also consider what happens if, or more likely when, that entity changes hands and is run by new people with new agendas? That might not work out so well for the people in that database.

The government has my fingerprints and my drivers license photo. I am not interested in sharing that with any for-profit company. I would be even more resistant to anyone wanting to collect my DNA regardless of the reason.

It’s because their religion has taught them to trust religious leaders without question. They have faith that the church knows what is best for them and their community. They tend to not use critical thinking when it comes to religious matters.

People often have a similar faith in their parents judgement. If Mom or Dad asks them to do something that seems foolish, many people will still do it simply because of the unquestioning trust they have for their parents.
