Nice to see a connection that actually has some truth in it for a change. like a dash of cool water on a warm summer day. Then offcoarse, water burns
my skin so perhaps that metaphore is a little off for me.
Anyhoo's back to business. Humanity is a long distance relative of alien decent. How is this connected to evolution (right, you read it here i'm not
throwing away evolution in a handbasket). Well you see, humanity originally is made out of two seperate species. one beiing the prime-apes. (huray for
that) The other being alien genetics from the Cornozians (members of the shadow family tree). Offcoarse, having Cornozians mate with monkeys (pardon
my language, prime apes) would be silly, not to mention freaking most people out amongst other the Cornozians temselves. (on a sidenote, compared to
humans they have been hit by the proverbial mill once too often in my eyes, but hey, as long as they can fight).
Wait, I'm going astray again. Cornozians and Primal Apes. How? Well, i'm going to drop a bombshell here and it might get me screened by some
agencies...again. You see, there is a shure way to manipulate genetic material in a way that effects an already born being (humanity still hasn't
succeeded or figured it out somehow) and that's by using virusses. I'm specifically mentioning a certain strain of virusses called
Retro-virusses.
Uhm, maybe some explaination. A Retro-virus is a virus build out of RNA (duh, pretty much all virusses do) and it has a nasty programming. Retro
virusses infiltrate a cell and when they do they write some of their RNA coding into DNA coding. Sounds familiar? Well it should, cause human genomes
are build up out of DNA. Now, normally so it, right? But suppose that someone (caugh, Cornozian and Vexxes genetic engineers) could manipulate
retrovirusses to give code towards certain cells to rewrite existing codes. Well, it can be done. ofcoarse you need a genetic lab (no prob) sample
materials (Cornozians were always willing to be born and raised in biopods so no prob), advanced knowledge of genetic manipulation (Cornozians are
born artificially and manipulated so no prob) and a willing subject..euh granted primal apes don't like to be parilized and brought to labs but hey,
no intelligent lifeform so no rights...so euh...no prob! (Key, we might have broken some ethics there..)
You mess around with their reproduction and leave. Why? Well, just in case something screwy happens, like a political crisis making an eons worth of
rule unstabile..for example offcoarse.
