bohm one would assume that an ex jw would be more intelligent that an active member, but this does not count that many ex members were kicked out for wearing the wrong color shirt or type of glasses. I have been watching the many videos of ex jw's and oddly enough have not found one that is not massively confused, some even admit this, which is far better than being asleep. At any rate there has never been a normal person join this cult, though clearly children are brainwashed from birth. The point is a former devil cult member is no genius for joining a devil cult, or for leaving it, as the joining precludes advanced intellect in the first place.

Looking for evolutionary info on how smells can be carried on DNA
by Crabby inas i said last night the smell of pus from an infection is recognized by all puppies without their being exposed to the smell previously, this is shown because all puppies react the same way to this smell, which is to lick the infected pus laden wound.. this demonstrates that smells are carried on dna in some way.
any thoughts on how?.

Neither the article nor your book has any idea how the information is passed, you do not even know what epigenetics means.
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression (active versus inactive genes) that does not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence — a change in phenotype without a change in genotype — which in turn affects how cells read the genes. Epigenetic change is a regular and natural occurrence but can also be influenced by several factors including age, the environment/lifestyle, and disease state. Epigenetic modifications can manifest as commonly as the manner in which cells terminally differentiate to end up as skin cells, liver cells, brain cells, etc. Or, epigenetic change can have more damaging effects that can result in diseases like cancer. At least three systems including DNA methylation, histone modification and non-coding RNA (ncRNA)-associated gene silencing are currently considered to initiate and sustain epigenetic change.[1] New and ongoing research is continuously uncovering the role of epigenetics in a variety of human disorders and fatal diseases.
You must have had your mind messed with by a cult or something.

cofty, you do not even know where you are, this is not just an ex jw forum.
Are you people 'The Watchtower'?
No - we're an independent community site offering support for both current and former Jehovah's Witnesses and anyone else who has been affected by the beliefs, doctrines and practices of the Jehovah's Witness religion as governed by the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society (WTB&TS).

Bohm, no I do not think that JW's are uneducated, I know that they are and the graph shows the facts. Why, because the WT does not want JW's attending college, because once they see the real world they will leave the cult.

To all, I know it sounds incredible, but it happens. How no one knows,

Do you have a fear of spiders? Maybe snakes? It could be your ancestors trying to tell you something. Recent studies have provided evidence that memories of fear are one of many things our forebearers pass down to us through our DNA.
A 2013 study from Emory University found that mice trained to fear a specific odor would pass their emotions on to their offspring and future generations. Scientists applied electric shocks to mice as they exposed them to the smell of cherry blossoms. The mice then bred, and both the children and grandchildren of the affected rodents demonstrated a fear of cherry blossoms the first time they smelled them.
“Our results allow us to appreciate how the experiences of a parent, before even conceiving offspring, markedly influence both structure and function in the nervous system of subsequent generations,” Dr. Brian Dias of the Emory University department of psychiatry said to the Daily Telegraph. “Such a phenomenon may contribute to the etiology and potential intergenerational transmission of risk for neuropsychiatric disorders such as phobias, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder.”
The study went beyond just observing a fear reaction. Scientists actually looked at the brains of the animals and found physical changes in the areas that process odors, and also found a marker on the odor gene of the mouse DNA.
The experiment worked even when the researchers used artificial insemination in place of allowing the mice to breed naturally. The scientists still aren’t sure how the fear imprint makes it into the sperm — whether the smell itself passes through the blood, or the brain processes the odor and sends its own signal.

Witnesses are not allowed to take SAT's, thus they can be retarded and have plausible deniability that they are geniuses

cofty all of that is true, what I am asking is how does the DNA carry a smell which is not part of the body from one generation to the next. You are in agreement with me that it happens so far as I can tell, however you like 99.9 percent of others just accept this without asking why. Trust me, there is no book that you can read that answers this question, the books just verify that it happens.
Viv will claim to know...................

Data Dog this has nothing to do with either Dolphins or Noahs imaginary flood, or the imaginary apocolypses in 1914 and 1975

But cofty you have missed the point, smells are not genes. There is clear evidence that the smell of pus and flowers can be passed down as a memory to the offspring.
