I was lucky at a design school in 2002 to have a ā€œhistoryā€ class with a UC Berkeley professor who was teaching between two schools. It started with modern history of the west, the enlightenment, religious and secular divisions, differing philosophical views, leading up to the modern rise in exceptionalism and atheistic technocratic thinking (reductive materialism) which has all facilitated the desire for humans to play God via genetic manipulation. The class was designed to instill awareness and caution about where we were headed. By far the most important class Iā€™ve ever had as a product designer.

Where we are as a society isnā€™t an accident. Itā€™s also no accident they make ā€œplaying Godā€ seem necessary, harmless and logical. But we all know, EVERY tool can become a weapon when in the hands of intelligent yet morally deprived selfish psychopathic humans. And here we are... exactly where he predicted. I wish I remembered the name of the one teacher who made the most difference in my life.

CRISPR originally an Otago Uni NZ creation..

And, devotion to this ā€˜scienceā€™ may link to high belief in the jab solution narrative.

But at the start, resistance from our own Maori people was recognised as a potential problem for this exciting technology by our ā€˜sensitiveā€™ culturally deferent scientists..Seems like theyā€™ve put money into solve this potential point of ā€˜resistanceā€™ ..clearly research and money has been targeted šŸŽÆ to modify Maori values that might limit potentially limit investment in this ā€˜scienceā€™ ā€¦

At this moment, I'm in the middle of reading Doudna's book! It's a slog (I'm not a scientist) but I understand the Big Picture. I'm only reading it because my granddaughter who was a freshman at Allegheny College last year was assigned Doudna's book in her genetics class. I became suspicious that Allegheny was Woke and more when she was required to put her "preferred pronouns" on her dormitory door. All my fears about Allegheny and its agenda have been realized. Great Substack, by the way.

These rich psychopaths have nothing to do in their lives but sit around, fook around and play God. I censored myself to protect the innocent.

LOL. I have been learning about this for almost two years as part of personal investing. I then learned about the evil aspects of what people were openly saying on web sites and videos and a friend of mine says ā€œanyone can put whatever they want on a videoā€. At that time I told them I hoped this technology could create brain cells in people where they are lacking. We are pretty much just acquaintances now.

Why do I believe that this remarkable evolutionary change in human design will be rolled out with the infamous ā€œmark of the beastā€? You combine the digital money pass with this technology! ā€œ And no one might buy or sell unless they take the markā€ā€¦ā€¦.

The last time we managed to corrupt every living thing a Great Flood happened.

I will fear no evil, for thine art with me.

Pretty hard to do sometimes.

What's really bizarre about this is the damage childhood vaccines have and are causing on a life long basis; serious illnesses and disorders; the human being would manage just fine without those jabs; absoloutely; why give them to kill parasites that don't even exist in the child or never many for decades if ever; NOT viruses; Parasites. Funny how they're never referred to because those are what they use; mastitis is long covid or long term exhaustion illness; there's so much damage they cuause and now they come along with something that's suppose to stop cystic fibrosis when they were the cause in the first instance?? Yeah

When the first crispr was presented, a female researcher was interviewed. The reporter asked her if this was not intervening with nature. She responded, this is where nature will evoluate, but we do it faster. It hit me that what she said meant, I know it better than God and I do it better, and I knew it would fail and be a disaster no matter what scientists say.

Obvious recommendation, but ā€˜GATTACAā€™ and ā€˜In Timeā€™ are two great relevant films from Andrew Niccol (who also wrote ā€˜Truman Showā€™ and directed ā€˜Lord of Warā€™).

Our civilization is nearing its self-inflicted end.

As usual, there will be no free lunch.

Still, it's a good idea for people to become a bit more familiar with the bases for the activities the clowns called "scientists" are engaged in:

Sounds a lot like Jurassic Park... šŸ¤” That didn't end well...

I doubt if the technology will be used for good. More like breeding humans with reduced intelligence for specific slave roles. These people have clearly demonstrated evil intent.
