Continuing my discussion of the book, “Punk Science”.
Biologists used to think that our genes define us, but after the results of the human genome project were analyzed, they realized this is not so. The regulatory sequence of the genome seems to be more important.
Bruce Lipton discovered that cellular control is not within the DNA, but is in the cell membrane. Control is dictated by the cell environment, the bloodstream. Molecules, like hormones, send messages to the cell membrane through the membrane receptors. This information is sent to the whole body. Adrenaline, for example could be transmitted to the receptors because of something fearful.
Lipton also discovered that not everyone reacts to an event in the same way. What is fearful to some people is not fearful to everyone. So it is the interpretation of the event that controls the cell. He calls this “biology of belief”. This matches the idea that consciousness creates matter, reality.
Another example of conscious reaction to the environment was discovered by researcher John Cairns with E. Coli. In his experiment, the E. Coli mutated in order to use the only food source available to them in the experiment, which was lactose. E. Coli normally cannot use lactose.
It seems that all atoms, molecules, bacteria, and cells are conscious and intelligent. This information creates and controls life.
