I’ve just been watching a program on Sky’s Anytime TV titled “Ancient Aliens”, and towards the end of the program it went something like this, and I was wondering, hopefully something similar hasn’t been overdone on this forum, what you all think:
The human being posses the genome HAR1, not evident in any other animal, scientists believe that the gene plays a crucial role in the advanced development of the human brain – but where did it come from? Did humans develop this distinct gene naturally, through evolution, or did it land here with intention?
Francis Crick believed that human genes could not have evolved by chance, emphasising the complicated nature of DNA, he gave this analogy: “You would be more likely to assemble a fully functioning and flying jumbo jet by passing a hurricane through a junk yard than you would be to assemble the DNA molecule by chance. In any kind of primeval soup in 5 or 600 million years, it’s just not possible.” Crick didn’t feel in that period of roughly 600 million years from the formation of the planet down to the time when the planet could support life that there was enough time for DNA to form ‘by accident’.
Assuming this molecule could not have evolved ‘accidently’, as some people assert, could it have been put her on purpose? If so, why? I would be particularly interesting in hearing religious perspectives on this, from Christians, heathens, whatever else. Would this development be an example of fate, or wyrd? Or, as I think Varg and some others have discussed, are the gods ‘extra terrestrials’? Are ‘extra terrestrials’ actually humans, having came back in time, physically altered over the course of time, to visit our past selves? Are the gods our future selves...? How would that effect creation? Think Rígsţula, for example, if, as this program contemplated, the gods are our future selves, how would Ríg/Heimđallr have fathered his own ancestors, would this be an absolute inconcievable paradox, or not? Any thoughts what so ever on anything related to any of the above would be really interesting to hear.
I have no idea where this should go, so I just put it here! Sorry![]()
