Science Catches Up with Reality

Don't you love it when science confirms what common folk know?  Prayer, affirmations, setting intentions ... these ideas have been around for millennia because they work!

Thanks for writing about this, Meryl Ann.

IT'S THE FAULT OF THE MICE!

The blond  mouse is a witch! We must burn her at the stake!

Now we know that epi-genetics is the new Anti Christ. We must also

destroy the books and records of these monsters that do not

take creationism as gospel.

Let their bones rot in Hades while the truth shall trample this

heresy. A new crusade will be begun to purify the souls of the

righteous and fundamentalist view that we want to allow

to bring our values to the fore-front. Make the sign of the devil and

you will be crucified!

Now ...

if they could just figure out how to cure insanity before the insane blow this world apart ...

Fascinating stuff!

Just imagine a world where health care looked like this:

 “In my opinion, every health practitioner on the planet should consider skillfully using a form of energy medicine, such as EFT, before prescribing drugs, surgery, radiation or other invasive procedures. In my estimation and based on my observations, if this was done, it would reduce the cost of health care in the U.S. by 80 percent.”'

This idea, if coupled with healthcare practitioners teaching people how to eat appropriately so as to prevent disease in the first place, would create a far more healthy, happy, and prosperous society.

Does Spirituality alter DNA?

I'm pleased to see some work being done on this subject and a term Epigenetics, that scientists and researchers can start to get their heads around and investigate I have long held the view that our Spiritual side, which I have explained as part of our Aura, Energy Field; is the program or software of our physical body.

We are a Spiritual Beings first; a Life Energy Field; with all the programs and memories of our total existence and this image creates a physical body in its likeness. If the program is disturbed or corrupt the physical body and mind will eventually in time, be created to this exact imperfect image.

However although there are many ways of disturbing Life Energy Fields; we can also change this program in a number of ways by Healing disturbances of our Aura, by creative thought and by asking The Creator to do this, some do this by prayer.

These changes to the Life Energy Fields; result in changes to the physical body, often very rapidly and with these changes to the physiology surely the DNA must change.

We are strong advocates that this should be the primary area of research. The disease or disturbance in the Life Energy Fields; always shows up before disease is manifested in the physical person. This is prevention just one of the minor benefits of this system. Imagine all the benefits.

With Love

Just

Another weapon for the neo-malthusians to use against us.  Yes, perhaps we can influence gene expression for the better, despite bad DNA.  But obviously, it can also be used to influence gene expression for the worse, despite good DNA.

Of course, that 80% savings in health care costs could be due to the treatment may kill off those who are old and on medicare earlier, say hey, heart attack on command.  This ray gun will cure your cancer my dear, rest assured, all is well.  Another SS receipient bites to dust.  Maybe a new industry, Witch Doctors on demand can be created. (sorry, I realize the science can be used for good)

My father wears a mask and gloves when he opens up his SS check each month, he worries they might put anthrax in it or something, and he doesnt even believe in conspiracies.

By the way, the science works on insects DNA as well, before we get all spiritual and weepy eyed.

The author doesn't understand the terms she is using

While the current medical/science model is entrenched in Newtonian physics, and is based on matter, to the exclusion of invisible forces, Epigenetics has emerged as a quantum science.

Epigenetics is a molecular biological science - it is concerned with biochemistry and with some inorganic chemistry perhaps but its chemistry at the level of atoms and molecules, perhaps ions, but not sub atomic particles. It isn't a quantum science. Photons and electrons are involved in biology in photosynthesis and in electrolytes but they aren't really necessary to understand gene expression and the way this author is using the word epigenetics isn't the way most practicing life scientists would understand the word.

The relevant pieces in molecular biology and cellular biology are small, too small to see with the naked eye usually, but they are nanoscale and microscale not subatomic scale. The quantum models of the world work on smaller scales than epigenetics.

The unit of life is the cell not the DNA molecule. And the cell interacts with the environment which includes other cells. I think its fair to say that good scientists haven't just discovered that they've known it since about the time of Pasteur and Koch. There are a lot of scientists that perhaps aren't very good scientists but are just technicians. 

Science is a way of thinking and of interacting with the world. Its a shame that people seem to think (judging by the comments) that it is closed to them and that science is something that other people use to belittle them.  Science is open to pretty much anyone that is methodical, curious and honest. Science isn't what someone claiming to be a scientist say it is - that may just be their opinion.

HERE'S SOME CLARIFICATION

Thanks for your comment! It gives me a chance to clarify: Dr. Bruce Lipton, who was the keynote speaker at the event, introduces in his book, The Biology of Belief, "a long-awaited paradigm shift in the biomedical sciences. The new science will inspire your spirit, engage your mind and challenge your creativity as you comprehend the enormous real potential for applying this information in your life and in your profession." This book won the Best Science Book award for 2006. If you'd like to read about how his work with epigenetics is connected to quantum sciences, you can check out my article, A ROMP THROUGH THE QUANTUM FIELD with Gregg Braden and Dr. Bruce Lipton on this site at: http://www.opednews.com/articles/life_a_meryl_an_080214_a_romp_through_the_q.htm
