DNA. Cigarette, alcohol, drug DNA. Disease DNA. Killer, thief, liar, cheat DNA. Obesity, skinny, allergy DNA. Honesty, altruism, compassion, courage DNA. Scientists say that your DNA predetermines whether you’ll smoke, drink, drug, contract a disease, become a killer, thief, liar or cheat, become fat, skinny, honest, altruistic, compassionate, courageous – and on from there.
If our DNA controls everything about us, then when, where and how does our self-control come into play? Is self-control controlled by DNA also? Then why send people to prison who commit crimes over which they had no control? If that’s the actual case, then prisons should be country clubs for the DNA impaired.
A person’s DNA evolves. A ‘cheese-liking’ DNA evolves like everything else evolves. So DNA changes. If not, then DNA doesn’t evolve and that which a person likes and dislikes, or consumes or doesn’t consume remains static.
Prior to the existence of humans on planet Earth, forces in the universe didn’t know that tobacco would exist and humans would smoke it, thus throwing into the DNA spiral paradigm a cigarette gene.
How could there be a cigarette gene designed in humans prior to the universe knowing a plant with nicotine in it would be smoked by humans?
A Grand Schemer maybe, though it’s not likely. What’s more likely is that there is an addictive gene, that covers all addictions, with some being more destructive to the organism and the lives of those around them than others.
Just call it right, instead of getting clever with the language. Clever doesn’t equal science, though it could, it doesn’t here.
