Good question. There have been patients with deep brain stimulators for 15 years; I don’t know of any reports that they become dramatically less effective over time (There’s two confounding issues anyway. First that of course these patients are already old, and subsequent problems could be as much a consequence of aging than of the stimulator…

Our Western Gods are Super-Natural concepts/entities. Science is about Natural things/phenomenon. They do not belong to the same “world”. Therefore, Science cannot prove the existence of Gods.
But the God we think about here are a kind of “God the Creator”. i.e. God created the world: all the things, beings & Laws of the…
