Aurielius Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 And you are getting off topic.Well the topic is silly. The topic is about whether when you watch a movie, it gets encoded in your kidneys and gametes. The theory is unproven true.. but silly? If I understand the OP's premise it's whether there is a degree of cellular memory encoded within particular or all cells which has nothing to do with whether a cell retains a visual input experience. An open mind would at least entertain the possibility of a theory before shooting it down with derision. I personally cannot see enough evidence for me to be an adherent but am still open to evidence to the contrary..you might want to give that whirl.

Beriallord Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) I'm sure some others have experienced a nostalgia factor in doing certain things or being at certain places they have in fact never done before or been to. For example, I helped a cousin of mine repair some bricks in his fence, and I had never laid mortar before with a trowel, but I sorta had a good idea for the feel of it and the technique, even though I never did that before, nor seen it done before. Anyway, I felt like I had done that before. I'm also pretty good with a hammer, for someone who isn't a carpenter. I've also been to a few locations I have had nostalgia, which I have never been to before. Had some sort of familiarity with a location I shouldn't have been familiar with. I think its entirely possible for some memories or experiences to transfer through DNA. They only know what about 5% of the human DNA code actually does, and they don't understand most of the workings of the human brain yet either.

Aurielius Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 You know, if you keep too open a mind, your brain will fall out. Well in that case I'll defer to someone who has practical experience in neural vacancy, that at least explains your level of witticisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm directly quoting a decent someone from an earlier topic:The topic is pretty numpty if you ask me anyway. <snip>I suppose this topic is having the same issue.

Aurielius Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 @ihoe The OP is posing a question not stating that he is sure of it, he is young like yourself and has an open mind to possibilities. Though I do not find enough evidence to agree with the hypothesis which I have stated twice within this thread. However he should be allowed to explore the idea without being derided personally by those that are older and should be more tolerant of exploration of new concepts however far fetched they seem on the surface. Some really way beyond the pale ideas have been proved valid though at the time of presentation were dismissed as fanciful, all I am saying is give the guy a chance to prove his point.

zegh8578 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) at very very best i doubt "cellular memory" would be "memory" in the sense we wish it to be. you need more than a single cell in order to manifest an actual memory cells allready do have a "static" sort of memory, in that the dna string is pre-programmed to copy itself (as opposed to generating a completely random sequence each time)theres no logical way a single cell will be able to entertain a "full" memory, such as the information from a book, or visual memories (which requires eyes, optical nerves, etc, each made up of many, many cells) its easy to get eager and dream about this stuff. but practically, theres no hope.its like when people talk about "wormhole travel", without considering that _any_ travel in the vicinity of- or into black holes, is absolutely nothing but lethal...
