Viruses reprogram DNA everyday. By reading your OP only, it's hard to see what you are trying to get across.

I beleive that the OP is in reference to the 'language of DNA'

Genesis 11
They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”

Take the idea of the
Tower being that of DNA
Brick("Bricks" for building may be made from clay, shale, soft slate, calcium silicate, concrete, or shaped from quarried stone. However, true bricks are ceramic, and therefore created by the action of heat and cooling.)

now, remember what 'god' made adam of?

Brick being that of Nucleobases

"Tar is modified pitch produced primarily from the wood and roots of pine by destructive distillation under pyrolysis. Production and trade in tar was a major contributor in the economies of Northern Europe and Colonial America. Its main use was in preserving wooden vessels against rot. The largest user was the Royal Navy. Demand for tar declined with the advent of iron and steel ships."

pryolysis- Simplified depiction of pyrolysis chemistry.
Pyrolysis is a thermochemical decomposition of organic material at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen
resulting tar being the construct of H2 CH4

Tar-like products can also be produced from other forms of organic matter such as peat. Mineral products resembling tar can be produced from fossil hydrocarbons including petroleum. Coal tar is produced from coal as a byproduct of coke production. Bitumen is a term used for natural deposits of oil "tar" - such as at the La Brea Tar Pits."


key part being, "mineral products resembling tar can be produced from fossil hydrocarbons including petroleum.

if i'm not mistaken, the backbone of DNA consists of Hydrogen and Carbon as well, in CH2 pairs
(Side note: Methusela, derivitive of Methyl CH3, follow the etymology and evolution of the word, and definitions, and you will find that the story of Enoch fits perfectly, well in my mind atleast. I have it written somewhere with a further explination, which i will post a thread on at a later date)

Tar being that of the 'backbone'

These are all just loose random shots in the dark, for I have not spent much time on Genesis 11, but I would highly suggest that the author of this post is on the right track...

It's too late, i'm too tired(poor excuses lol) for me to rattle my brain over it. I haven't done much research on the topic in a while as well, so i've kinda lost my 'knack' for it, but I may just pick it up again....

I LOVE stuff like this! Thanks to all involved in this thread! I just know one day "it will all make sense"

I've often wondered about the fantastic stories in Genesis such as how Noah could logistically get two of each kind of animal on the ark and in reading Zecharia Sitchen's book The 12th Planet I learned that he got dna samples from the animals (he still had to get around the globe somehow and was probably helped by Enki). As crazy as it sounds at least it answers realistically how it could be done. Then the issue of how people with an established language (it is thought there once was a common language) could have that change overnight comes up. Well this sounds like just what I've been looking for.

Except that knowing the DNA sequence is not enough to replicate an organism entirely. Genetic imprinting, organelles and other epigenetic factors are also required.
