In order for RNA molecules (like viral RNA

nuclear DNA, several conditions must be
met: it must be reverse transcribed (which
this paper shows may be possible), it must
be integrated into the DNA (which this
paper does not show), and it must be
localized to the nucleus. So before

it does not. The article only states
that the enzyme studied appears in

that we have a potential new avenue

HOW DOES DNA TURN A CELL INTO A


SHEEP, OR A BIRD, OR A HUMAN?

When you divide a cake, the cake never


gets bigger. However, when we were just a
single cell and that cell kept dividing we
got bigger. New material had to come from
somewhere. That new material came from
food.

14 of 45 04/07/21, 17:55
New Discovery Shows Human Cells Can Write RNA Sequenc... https://scitechdaily.com/new-discovery-shows-human-cells-c...

Just as the sequence of various letters and


words in human language communicate a
message and direct workers to build and
assemble something so, too, the sequence
of various molecules in our DNA (our
genes or genetic code) directed the
molecules from our mother’s food, that we
received in the womb, to become new
cells, eventually forming all the tissues
and organs of our body.

When you feed a cat your food the cat’s


DNA will direct the food molecules to
become the cells, tissues, and organs of a
cat, but your DNA will turn the same food
into human cells, tissues, and organs.

What we call “genes” are actually


segments of the DNA molecule. When you
understand how your DNA works, you’ll
also understand how egg yolks can turn
into chickens. Read my popular Internet
article: HOW DID MY DNA MAKE ME?
Just google the title to access the article.

This article will give you a good


understanding of how DNA, as well as
cloning and genetic engineering. You also
learn that so-called “Junk DNA” isn’t junk
at all. You will learn why it is not rational
to believe that DNA code could have arisen
by chance. Science points (not proves, but
points) to an intelligent cause for DNA
code.

What about genetic and biological


similarities between species? Genetic

15 of 45 04/07/21, 17:55
New Discovery Shows Human Cells Can Write RNA Sequenc... https://scitechdaily.com/new-discovery-shows-human-cells-c...

information, like other forms of


information, cannot happen by chance, so
it is more logical to believe that genetic
and biological similarities between all
forms of life are due to a common
Designer who designed similar functions
for similar purposes. It doesn’t mean all
forms of life are biologically related! Only
genetic similarities within a natural
species proves relationship because it’s
only within a natural species that
members can interbreed and reproduce.

Nature cannot build DNA code from


scratch. It requires already existing DNA
code to direct and bring about more DNA
code or a genetic engineer in the
laboratory using intelligent design and
highly sophisticated technology to bring
DNA code into existence from scratch.
Furthermore, RNA/DNA and proteins are
mutually dependent (one cannot come
into existence without the other two) and
cannot “survive” or function outside of a
complete and living cell. DNA code owes
its existence to the first Genetic Engineer
– God!

Protein molecules require that various


amino acids come together in a precise
sequence, just like the letters in a
sentence. If they’re not in the right
sequence the protein won’t function. DNA
and RNA require for various their various
nucleic acids to be in the right sequence.

Furthermore, there are left-handed and

16 of 45 04/07/21, 17:55
New Discovery Shows Human Cells Can Write RNA Sequenc... https://scitechdaily.com/new-discovery-shows-human-cells-c...

right-handed amino acids and there are


left-handed and right-handed nucleic
acids. Protein molecules require for all
their amino acids to be left-handed only
and in the right sequence. DNA and RNA
require for all their nucleic acids to be
right-handed and in the right sequence. It
would take a miracle for DNA, RNA, and
proteins to arise by chance!

Mathematicians have said any event in the


universe with odds of 10 to 50th power or
greater is impossible! The probability of
just an average size protein molecule (with
its amino acids in the right sequence)
arising by chance is 10 to the 65th power.
Even the simplest cell is made up of many
millions of various protein molecules
along with and DNA/RNA..

The late great British scientist Sir


Frederick Hoyle calculated that the odds of
even the simplest cell coming into
existence by chance is 10 to the 40,000th
power! How large is this? Consider that
the total number of atoms in our universe
is 10 to the 82nd power.

Also, so-called “Junk DNA” isn’t junk.


Although these “non-coding” segments of
DNA don’t code for proteins, they have
recently been found to be vital in
regulating gene expression (i.e. when,
where, and how genes are expressed, so
they’re not “junk”). Also, there is evidence
that, in certain situations, they can code
for proteins through the cell’s use of a

(except China who used classic deactivated


virus) developed RNA and mRNA vaccines
based off S-spike protein. If this via
reverse transcriptase was incorporated
into the cellular genome, the potential for
the cells to continually produce S-spike
proteins which have a unique affinity for
ACE-2 receptors which are primarily
located in the vascular system used to
regulate blood pressure amongst many
other functions it could pose serious
danger. Recent autopsy of fully vaccinated
patient found their body was completely
overloaded with the S-spike protein which
caused organ and cardiovascular failure.
Studies have shown by using a dead virus
with no RNA only a S-spike coated shell
that it caused the same damage that
Covid-19 did on various cell-lines I believe
they used lung cell lines. This must be
fully investigated and no ignored because
this may throw the entire reasoning
behind this recent vaccination
development into question.

Indeed, what the other reply said:


the patient was actually infected
with the virus, “RNA was extracted
from paraffin sections using the
Maxwell RSC (Promega, Madison,
WI, USA). Multiplex RT-PCR analysis
targeted 2 independent genes of the
SARS-CoV-2-genome (Fluorotype
SARS-CoV-2 plus Kit; HAIN/Bruker,
Nehren, Germany): RNA-dependent
RNA polymerase (Target 1) and
nucleopeptide (Target 2).”, they
tested for 2 different SARS-CoV-2
genes and the tests came back
positive for both. The patient was an
86 year old man with multiple pre-
existing health conditions.

What the paper suggests is that


immunogenicity is not enough to
protect from the virus and that
sterile immunity is required: i.e.
especially if you are an older
individual and have reduced immune
capacity, your body needs to have
finished mopping up the spike
proteins produced in response to

antibody capacity to bind and
eliminate the actual virus. This is of
course an oversimplification, but you
can imagine that when the body is
fighting two wars that both start
around the same time, it’s less
effective in both.

stated in the article. mRNA does not enter
the nucleus. It only instructs the cell to
make a single protein and nothing else.
Afterwards the mRNA strand gets
destroyed by the cell.

Does this not support the theory that

28 of 45 04/07/21, 17:55
New Discovery Shows Human Cells Can Write RNA Sequenc... https://scitechdaily.com/new-discovery-shows-human-cells-c...

If the body can make strands of RNA, then


how do we know the RNA strands that we
call virus are not manufactured in our
bodies as well.

The evidence that viruses originate


anywhere besides living cells is extremely
lacking to say the least.

Perhaps Bechamp was right, and Pasteur


wrong after all.

When you drive past a house that was


recently on fire, you often see firemen
there, but you would never say, “The
firemen started the fire”

This would explain how the flu seems to


only occur during the winter except in rare
cases, along with many other things about
virus that do not hold up to intense
scrutiny.

Despite our societies nearly 100% belief


that foreign particles from outside our
body cause most diseases there is NOT a
single replicated experiment that supports
this theory.

Just read about Pasteur trying to make the


“polio vaccine” and how much trouble he
had trying to transmit the disease.

Nothing worked until they drilled holes in


the animals skull and injected what was
basically the mucous of an animal with
polio into the hole.

averted. Regardless of this, the pandemic

This has nothing to do with you refusing


the COVID vaccine. Don’t try to do science
with no knowledge or experience in
scientific thinking whatsoever. LETS
assume that the mRNA vaccine changes ur
DNA (it doesn’t, mRNA is a middle phase
that just vanishes after use) it would effect
a really small part of your somatic (body)
cells that does not represent your genetic
make-up at all. Mutations happen all the
time, almost all of them just fizzle out, so
that’s another NBD with an “if”.

The jabs are recombinant ( recombined

aborted fetal cells in them. The DNA is
now know to be like binary code (
computer code) so they can code the nano
particles or program them to cut the
person’s DNA and insert the new DNA
strand…what DNA ?? Who’s DNA ?? Who
knows ?? They use crisper( cas9 ) gene
editing as well as it is a cheap gene editing
which they have been using for several
years now. The jabs are loaded with
LuciferASE which illuminates and helps
track how the process is working when put
under florescent lights ..pretty much your
insides light up like a lightening bug butt.
They put silver which makes it attach and
seals the DNA back together. I can’t see
anything good about cutting a person DNA
. I don’t know how it will affect our future
but it don’t look good.
