Simply put So don't just assume that because it's called Junk DNA that we think it is useless. Just call it "Noncoding DNA" instead. "Noncoding". Ha now that was funny. DNA that is there but as coding in non form. Oh dear lord. DNA is there because it was coded, but science just doesnt understand it thats all. Because the people who tampered our dan made sure you dont know

The powers that be are giving you two reality hypothesis doomsday and new age world order government. This propaganda is just a distraction to what's really happening. We are asked to be aware of our fears and face them, and learn to be more self aware and responsible to the reality we are moving into. This shift is waking us all up. It's happening now and there is no one going to escape it. The people who try to escape or self delude themselves into thinking nothing is happening or avoiding the real awareness and truth of who we are, will just be pushed off this planet through all the catylcisms. Through this global trauma people been suggestible to giving into all power factions that rule the planet. LIke 9/11. People were asleep to consciousness and this woke us up, but at the same time we are stil falling for the lies for the last 10 years. The majority of the people are so scared they would rather have their freedoms stripped and totally give themselves into the system of control rather than take full responsibility for thier own lives. Its' the fear of betrayal, mistrust, dis loyality and belittlement the populations of the world just don't want to face up too in our governments. The reality is, we are either going to face up to it, or we just fall behind. 2009 -2010 has already seen massive shifts. People will have kundalini awakenings also all the way to 2012. The people will find the shift hard to ignore. Many upheavals and past feelings will come up, because you have bottled them in or repressed them. This is the time to let them go the past once the healing takes place. The lies are coming out. The corruption is coming out. The darkness is coming out. The pimple has reached its swell and has bursted. 2012 is about mass awakening and change. The healing of this world is already happening. Things will get worse before it gets better and it will continue to be chaotic way up till 2012. 2012 is just very largely missunderstood. We are becoming aware that we are creating reality and realising that we always were co creating this world. Since the power is now radically shifting from the illuiminati back to the masses. The illuminati continue to try hold as much grip over society as they can by creating tightened security and a big brother society whereby people are just droned by the system. It's the end of the world as we know it, but there is no asteroid or planet slamming into our planet.

Research Report Dormancy of the Human Brain Dormant Brain Research and Development Laboratory T.D.A. Lingo, Director The human brain is only 10% functional, at best. The first to outline this theory, later proved a fact by others, was Australian Neurology Nobel Laureate Sir John Eccles. (Lecture: University of Colorado, University Memorial Center Boulder, July 31, 1974.) "The brain indicates its powers are endless." In England, John Lorber did autopsies on hydrocephalics. This illness causes all but the 1/6th inch layer of brain tissue to be dissolved by acidic spinal fluid. He tested the IQ's of patients before and during the disease. His findings showed that IQ remained constant up to death. Although over 90% of brain tissue was destroyed by the disease, it had no impact on what we consider to be normal intelligence. Russian neurosurgeon Alexandre Luria proved that the 1/3 bulk of frontal lobes are mostly dormant. He did this by performing ablation experiments on persons. He gave physiological and psychological tests before, cut out parts and whole frontal lobes, the re-tested after. His conclusion: removal of part or all of frontal lobes causes no major change in brain function, (some change in mood alteration). The frontal lobes are mostly dormant, asleep. (Luria, A.R. "Frontal Lobes and the Regulation of Behavior." In: K.H. Pribram and A.R. Luria, Editors, Psychophysiology of the Frontal Lobes. New York, and London, Academic Press, 1973) Finally, the human brain contains 10 billion neurons, mostly in the outer layer of brain cortex. the function of these currently dominant cells is fairly clear. but the brain also contains 120 billion glial cells. Aside from some secondary nurturing of neurons, the primary function of the glia is not clear. What big bang mirical awaits mankind within these mysteries? Today, most would agree without argument that the potential of the human brain is infinite. Thus, to state that a person uses 10%, 5%, or even 1% of their potential brain capacity (infinity) is overly generous. The point is this: There is no dispute among honestly rational experts about the latent potential of the human think box. There is only friendly dispute about how much and what still awaits us, patiently to be self-discovered between each set of ears. Hence, the wisdom of intuitive folksay was correct: "The human brain is only 10% functional." John Eccles thinks that number is too high. "How can you calculate a percentage of infinity?"

When the test was applied to hundreds of individuals at the same time there was a greater amount of time before the action happened, about 2 mins ahead of the action happening which could be detected with instruments. There are observable results in tests like these and although its all still fairly new, its leading to something like a convergence of spirituality and science, some say...
Pixel8 wrote: » You can cause things to happen in your own life by just positively thinking about them all the time, the more you positively think about something the more the steps involved in achieving your goal manifest themselves in your mind and you can then take each step at a time, keep thinking and the next step presents itself. The same way when you think negatively about something, you end up convincing yourself not to even bother taking the first steps to understand it coz it just looks like too many steps, too much hassle and you couldnt be arsed anyway and then you get stuck in a rut, you moan about the things that are wrong with everything and you never grow up coz you dont face your fears and learn from them... In other words, thought creates reality, just like they say in The Secret, think negative and negative things happen and vice versa. So, if you can get masses of people to think about the same thing then that can influence that thing coming into being, like always showing war and death on TV makes people accept the wars still going on in the world, all so the bankers can make more money. Obviously this is how the media and religion have brainwashed us all.
Pixel8 wrote: » If we all think about an apocalyptic 2012 then thats what will happen in parts of the world, but its all because of negatively thinking about the doom and gloom. In order for the positive evolution scenario to happen in 2012 you will have to believe that 2012 is going to be a good change for the world enlightening everybody and upgrading our DNA, or some such thing. That band of particles from the centre of the galaxy, which makes up the spiral of the galaxy is heading towards us now and we're almost fully in it, Wilcock thinks that is the reason why all planets in the solar system are heating up, and he has images to prove it. This has to have some sort of effect on the human body and specifically on our DNA because DNA is a transmitter/receiver of information.

My mother and uncle have both done this for over 25 years and up until i was about 18-20 i though it was all crap. Then my uncle read my chart properly and told me some very strange things about myself that he just couldn't have known, uncle or not, they were personal things about myself that nobody could know unless i specifically told them. I brought friends to have their charts done and sure enough things have all happened in our lives which he said would happen, he described my friends down to a tee and its all to do with planet gravities having a subtle influence on our bodies and minds swaying us more in different directions all the time according to their positions in the solar system, its actually fascinating stuff when you begin to see how the patterns in this data are matched to real life events. So sure enough i do believe more in it now than i did before and on looking into it further in terms of the elites and all that, most of them have their own personal astrologists to tell them when the best times are to do certain things, as J.P. Morgan said "Millionaires don't use Astrology, Billionaires do". All these elites are well aware of astrology, astronomy, numerology etc. the positions of the planets and all that, even the Vatican is interested in this stuff now. There is a lot more to all those things than we've been told to believe by the powers that be, why would elites have had us all educated to believe astrology and other similarly regarded subjects are worthless when there they are using them and benefiting from all this info themselves. That's how they remain in control, coz we still mostly think there's nothing to all this 'unscientific' information, stop believing what they told us before and research it all yourself. You'll be surprised at what you find when you get all the political science misinfo out of the way!

Pixel8 wrote: » If you're gonna try and disprove it then do a proper experiment and get a proper full personal reading done according to your own personal chart, you'll need the date you were born, the time you were born (down to the minute) and the position on the planet where you were when you were born in order for it to be as accurate as possible, and then try prove that wrong.
Pixel8 wrote: » You and Dalkins seem to think that the 12 general zodiac sign readings that we see in the papers sum up Astrology, what a bunch of ignorance. Under each of the 12 signs you have hundreds of different types of capricorn, hundreds of different types of scorpio etc. etc. so to come to a conclusion about Astrology from 12 generalised readings that you see in the paper, im sorry but it doesn't get more unscientific than that. Some people can be sooooooo lazy in their research, i dunno...

I admit I didn't know about the subcategories but I really cannot take astrology seriously because it does not use the scientific method, peer review or any form of quality control for that matter. If an astrologer makes a prediction and it's wrong, do they review their methods. Nope. I really hope you realize the irony in using the term unscientific in an argument defending astrology.
