**** I would like to know if there are any people or persons who are interested in Human Genetic Memory !!
Since there is no question in the OP, let’s move this to IMHO.

Are you interested in Human Genetic Memory ??
There’s no evidence such a thing exists, interesting as it would be.
Do you have something you’d like to say about it??
What exactly are you referring to here? Epigenetics is a form of genetic memory in a sense. My guess though, is you are referring to the idea that a memory is encoded in the genetic code,
Although it seems that there may not be any real research into Human Genetic Memory, I believe that it exists & is real. It’s just that people haven’t pursued this train of thought enough …at least I haven’t been able to find any research on the subject. But, who can really say that it doesn’t exist. It exists in the animal kingdom, why shouldn’t it exist in the human kingdom.
Many species have genetic memory. In Africa, the weaver bird has it. They all know how & where to build their nests. It isn’t taught to them by their parents, they just know. Crocodilians know how & where to nest also. They aren’t taught, they just know, too. There thousands of species that exist because they automatically know how & what to do without being taught. It’s genetic memory.
Why shouldn’t the most advanced species on earth have genetic memory also ? I believe that people, who think that they have " past-life " experiences, are tapping into genetic memory. Since the mapping of the human genome, they are able to tell where the ancestors of an individual have come from. Someone may think that they have a european background, but may find that there is asian or some other ethnic background in their heritage. We all started in Africa. Who is to say that we CAN’T tap into a form of genetic memory. I believe that we can do it if we allow ourselves to be open to that belief & allow our minds to " take that trip "!
AKA: Instinct. Right? So if instinct in animals is a form of genetic memory, can you think of any instincts we as humans have?

I’m not talking about " instincts ", I’m talking about real, genuine memory …the way you remember what happened to you yesterday or when you had your 10th birthday party. To truly explain what I’m saying would take a very long time & I don’t think I could type that long. I’m disabled. I have three different kinds of arthritis & it becomes quite laborious, typing for an extended period of time. My mind, however, never stops & it’s easier to think than type.
I believe that we have the untapped ability to " remember " from the " beginning of time ", our time, at least. I believe that " man " has existed much farther back than the existence of Earth, that we have been seeded from the stars, from solar systems & galaxies long since dead to the universe, tracing back to the " Big Bang " . I know, most people will say that I’m crazy or some kind of crackpot, but when you consider that we use so little of our true brainpower, who’s to say what’s crazy !
If you’re referring to the oft-repeated claim that we use only 10% of our brains - not true baby.
You’re confusing instincts with memory. An animal might have a inherited instinct to do something like nest in a certain type of location but that’s not a memory. Look at geese for example - you build a artificial pond and they’ll start nesting in it even though none of their ancestors ever saw that pond.
Have you ever seen the account of a certain young man who lost half of his skull & brain in an accident. It showed pictures of him with literally the entire top right half of his skull gone. Doctors fashioned a new right hemisphere of his skull & replaced it under the skin of his head to make him look normal, but with half of his brain gone, he can still function & think and reason normally. The left half of his brain has been able to take over those functions normally controlled by the right half.
Okay.
What does that have to do with this topic?
Do you believe that it’s just human beings specifically who were seeded on Earth from another planet or all life on Earth? Because the evidence runs against the idea of humans alone coming from another planet - we’re genetically related to other species on Earth. If you’re saying that life in general might have started on Earth by being introduced from another planet, I’ll allow it’s a possibility.
Oh, for fuck’s sake. I was considering going through point by point and explaining why you’re wrong, but I just can’t be arsed. I’m earning a PhD in genetics right now. You’re wrong. You’re utterly, completely, 100% batshit wrong. The “examples” you’ve given are all examples of instinct. Saying “I’m not talking about instinct” doesn’t change the fact that all you’ve talked about is instinct. The reason there’s no research on human “genetic memory” is because there’s absolutely no evidence that it exists. It’s woo. It’s crap. It’s pseudoscience. It’s garbage. It’s not real. It’s fiction. It’s pretend. It. Doesn’t. Happen.
Dear Mr. Smegmahead, You, Sir, are inebriated with the exuberance of your own verbosity! Do YOU know everything that there is to know about everything that there is in the universe ?!? Do you know what " God " is? Do you know what started the universe? Are you so-o-o-o intelligent that you can so firmly deny the existence of anything beyond your ken?
Centuries ago, people thought the world was flat. They never could have even conceived that it would be possible to travel into space. They would have believed that what a computer can do was magic. You think that because you are getting your PhD in genetics that YOU know all the answers about everything genetic. It wasn’t too long ago that even the idea of the human genome wasn’t known. The fact that you find it necessary to use such crude language as the word " fuck " shows that you are incapable of accepting any idea that fit into your own concept of what is true or false. How dare you be so egotistical, Mr. PhD!! Phull of Dung!!
I said that there would be people who would think that I am crazy. YOU are one of them. You had no reason to attack me personally. You could have simply said that there was no way that you could believe in what I believe & let it go at that. You are such a child. Grow up & show at least a modicum of respect for a fellow human being.
