Very interesting...And the basic theories from the OP's sources are really not "new ideas" either. Genetic Engineering is the most powerful force
ever to be wielded by humanity, but do we also have the wisdom to use it without committing genocide? To be sure, Genetic Engineering allows us to
literally shape our own future, but who can really understand all of the consequences should we choose the "wrong future?" For example, certain gene
sequences determine a person's physical build in general; is this person going to be tall or short, large or petite, etc. Certain gene sequencies
determine how much fat a person's body will store, but if "social mores" or "political ambitions" lead humanity into the "svelte look" & reduce
everyone to 2% body fat, then what happens when famine hits? Had more people been able to store fat in their bodies, they'd be more likely to
surivive through famine, whereas those genengineered for 2% body fat will be the first to starve to death.

No. It is not. It is a molecule which codes for proteins through nucleotides.
There's been study into the effect that the environment has on DNA & genetics; in a Nova documentary named
Ghost in Your Genes, in which later generations actually display genetic characteristics from the
life-experiences of their grandparents; this is due to the "epigenetics" involved as our bodies absorb & metabolize substances from the environment
& chemically encounter our DNA. Although there's not enough documented evidence to prove this conclusively, environmental pressures can have some
effect on how DNA reacts. In notable cases, the environmental pressures that affect DNA "pass over" one generation & actually
manifest in the
next generation. "Talent skips a generation"
indeed! The primary problems involved in gathering
conclusive evidence is that isolated
communities with well-documented family histories aren't so easy to find & study.
However, it's not really so far-fetched to reason that various vibrational frequencies in our environment can also have a genetic effect. Even though
there's been evidence that there's more to us humans than a mass of flesh & physical matter & also considering the differences between the
specialized fields of Psychology & Psychiatry as well as the the slowly growing aggreement among brain specialists that the "mind" is not entirely
dependant on the "brain" to exist, there really is nothing in the article's implications for "consciousness" & "spiritualism" that hasn't
already been investigated in other scientific fields.
And yet, putting genetic engineering to practical, everyday use has already been a part of our lives. The earliest forms of "genetic engineering,"
eugenics, have been implimented in agriculture for thousands of years; the continual development of cross-breeding crop foods & the selective breeding
of herd animals to produce food are good examples. Modern medical sciences use a bio-engineered organic mass to produce insulin for diabetics to use.
Many of the everyday household cleaning products we use today contain enzymes produced by bio-engineered mass. These are only a few examples out of a
multitude that are in practice today.
But the theory of DNA actually storing knowledge & transferring knowledge to other lifeforms...This isn't a new theory either. In science fiction,
under the ageis of the "cyberpunk" genre, data storage in an engineered bio-mass is the basis of the "neural net." In our own ancient history,
cannibals would eat their vanquished enemies to gain their strength. More recently, several decades ago, a scientist had trained
Plen
arian Worms to run through a maze; then he chopped them up & fed them to another batch of Plenarian Worms. The new worms were able to run the
maze without being trained or taught how to do so. Consider the implications; you might go into a deli & order up a "Schwartzenegger on
Pumpernickle" sandwich...Or an "Einstein on Rye."
And such knowledge can also be manipulated by politics! What of the "rumors" of "mind control lasers" brought forth by "paranoid" people that
most consider to be "nutcases?"
Consider Hitler's Eugenics Programs stepped up to a whole new level! Well, that's a whole 'nother can o' worms I really don't want to get into
here because this is not the Politics Forum.
