1865 -- Gregor Mendel (monk) published his work on laws of hereditary (genes) based on pea plants. He is considered "father" of genetic biology.
1869-71 -- Friedrich Miescher did experiments with white blood cells, from puss. He discovered the first stages of the DNA molecular compound by isolating hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus from the nucleus. These are the 4 of the 5 base elements for DNA.
1928-44 -- Fred Griffith and Oswald Avery found that DNA was used as transforming agent in Pneumococcus bacteria. First indication of DNA being the base compound for living organisms.
1952 -- Rosalind Franklin made the first clear x-ray picture of DNA which showed a long X shape figure.
1953 -- Francis Crick and James Watson solved the double helix DNA by viewing Franklin's X-rays. They constructed the first 3-D model of DNA.
1955-59 -- various experiments of replicating DNA for medicine and other research
1961 -- Marshall Nirenberg used DNA structure to develop the first real genetic sequence code, called Codons.
1975 -- Herbert Boyer cloned and synthesized insulin using recombinant DNA. New company enterprises started up with venture capitalist investments. Genentech employed Boyer.
1979 -- Frederick Sanger developed digital gene technology from experiments with breaking apart the DNA chemistry and terminating the ends at different segments (base pairs) with enzymes to indicate gene banding. All this data was transferred to computer software for the digital code.
1980-89 -- many experiments with DNA sequencing and recombinant DNA. A recombinant DNA means "unzipping" the DNA down the middle and modifying one or more phases of the codons, then "zipping" it back up. This is genetically modified organism (GMO).
1990 -- Mary - Claire King discovered the gene (BRCA1) which indicated mutations to greatly increase chances of breast cancer. The gene is in chromosome 17.
1990 -- US government provides major funding to sequence the complete Human Genome (DNA and all its bands of genes). One for-profit company (Celera Corporation) owned by J. Craig Venter embarks upon the same project with venture capitalist funding.
2003 -- Human Genome Project completed, by both government sources and Celera (lead by Venter). Celera tries to patent gene sequencing but get no approval from patent office.
2004 -- President Clinton declares that no one can claim patent copyright privileges for Human Genome discoveries. Celera stocks plummet.
2010 -- team of scientist lead by Venter, successfully creates "synthetic life". The genetic code has four "watermarks" in the sequence to determine any later descendants in the future. This is Venter's unapproved copyright. Venter is on a quest to patent their first partially synthetic organism, dubbed Mycoplasma laboratorium.
So, all these biological discoveries along the path toward new developments which are now synthetic creations in the laboratories, really only point to what I think is really evil, in the guise of good, being projected into our living space by atheist and evolutionist theories. For instance J. Craig Venter is an acclaimed top atheist in the world. Yet, by whatever devilish consortium of scientist and biologist he leads, they are moving forward with their own 'patentable' creations. Now, I would ask the question as to why they call it their creations instead of their evolutions. To me this indicates selfish pride, not unlike the devil, who is really the originator of these evil schemes.
I make my prediction on this blog that there will come a day (perhaps with in the next 50 - 100 years) that groups of biologist and chemists and other scientist will synthetically 'create' a human organism, perhaps dubbed "Homo labortorium". I also predict that this created species will be the epitome of evil and deception so prophesied in Revelations chapter 13. As it reads:
Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people, and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived. And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.
(Revelation 13:11-18 ESV)
I predict just as Venter put four watermarks into his synthetic organism, there will come a day that 666 (the number of a man) will be the copyright 'watermark' of the synthetic human.
Friends, the end is coming very rapidly. With the aid of super computers and rapid mathematical equation answers it will be able to speed up time for this to happen. And as the Bible says:
And if the Lord had not cut short the days, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days.
(Mark 13:20 ESV)
