Caryn, concerning your considerations about these websites:

I haven't read them (went only on the site of "tranceformers" and was maybe too much blinking and advertisement for me), but what you've told sounds like the usual crappy stuff. But I must comment, there are certainly people who think that what you told from the Osirian scripts and other sources is just the same. I personally hold this for re-tellings and blendings of myths. Myths tell us quite a lot, but not when taken literally. When taken literally, it's either a fantasy story (I prefer Tolkien, "The Silmarillion" too has a creation myth in it) or it is turning into some authoritarian narrowing simplistic heroic belief system with the good guy and the bad guy, which, as usual, don't address the ancient philosophic question why the heck the all-wise Godhead had allowed to let the bad guy do his dirty work.
What the genetic engineering belongs, since a very long time humans do breeding, plants and animals, most before they knew that they do that, it's just a rule of nature. That's also changing the genetic pool, only slower, by selection. It's a human culture technique. So the DNA manipulation is not different in principle (nature is doing it all the time). Therefore, I don't understand the principal moralic difference in changing the creation by inventing the tire or inventing genetic engineering.
I don't believe in doomsday. Everyone has his/her own doomsday (or happy day) when one physically dies. Therefore, a collective physical doomsday with disaster and then division into the good and the bad, or the unenlightend who have followed the deceiver while the the enlightened are so lucky to have followed the right guys is just silly, childish and overfluid. This is just end-time drama and I don't know why people are so fascinated in it- it shows the unawareness of the own mortality, so it's needed to be the collective happening; and it shows self-centeredness, which cannot accept that the world keeps on turning when they had left.
The myth of Atlantis (yours sounds very much like Cayce) is a very common one. You can find it in the myth of Adam and Eve's exile of Garden Eden, or Prometheus. The pattern is always the same. It is the feeling of guilt, or at least the suspect to be guilty, that started since mankind became aware to be "different" than the animals, by having language, the ability of imagining/planning; to be aware of death and killing, to be aware of individuals. Since this sort of separation from the rest of creation the humans feel guilty of misusing the creation, and they fear any of their technical means could be not in order with the moral of nature/creation/god(s), especially when it's a new means and not consecrated by tradition. As you see, i view it as a general attribute of mankind and not as a problem of a single new technology.

Morning 

lol I thought I might get come back from my remark :  The US Government is Divinely guided by God.  Part of me is Aquarian and Aquarians live in the future;  The US is also Aquarian and lives in the future .. and no, Spooky I haven't read any literature about what you said.  But this applies to all the wise rulers of the Nations.  We need to come together as people of the earth; we must stop internal political squabling and put our trust into our leaders and pray continously for them.  The US Government is very God-fearing from the insights I have had, they prayer a lot for guidance.

It does not help for peoples opinions to go anti the leaders choices.  Trusting in our Leaders is the  honest way to go.  Any other way will cause choas and confusement at a time when people look towards the leaders for guidance.

And since when the US becomes the chosen country of God....which means of course that there are countries that are not divinely guided by GOD...        "The US Government is divinely guided by God" I have to LOL sorry
Such strong remarks need strong evidence...especially when they concern a country that has bombed half the planet after WW2...such love is unbearable!!!!! The US acts exactly like any other superpower in the past...it takes by force what it wants and I am sorry that everyone in the whole world can see it but you... You may want  to take a look at this.

Oh and something final.... you said...

'Trusting in our Leaders is the  honest way to go.  Any other way will cause choas and confusement at a time when people look towards the leaders for guidance.'

I guess that was what the germans in WW2 believed....way to go!!!!

Moving back toward the central issue, genetic factors, the discussion has demonstrated several interesting things thus far, things that precisely exemplify the genesis of both ourselves and our context.

Starting with human experiences, we tell others about what happened, and they take our remarks, add their own experiences and repeat them. Eventually, certain topics appear in a consistent manner. Others put these into settings by which they are more easily expressed, and myths are born. Myths generally carry characteristic ideas that our culture espouses. Some are useful, some are not. Eventually, the useful ideas prevail because they pay off. Those ideas eventually get embodied in customs and flokways, and then in traditions and regulations. Thus, our social world is a genetic laboratory of perpetual testing and replacement.

In the same way, given a social setting, we have various physical and mental traits. Just as ecological systems evolve in which certain insects pollinate certain flowers etc, we grow into our social context and attempt to fit in sufficiently to build a good life. Physical and mental factors that fail to pay off are rejected as we choose superior options. In reincarnation, we carry the problems of the past into those choices, seeking to find a better way to live, and making the process of personal growth a part of the selection process.

Our mental, physical and social life is shaped and guided by genetic selections at every level, and where we start is the outcome of millennia of comparisons and choices made socially, chemically, physically, mentally, and spiritually. These circumstances define our starting point by cause and effect, and by conditioning as we learn to become social human beings. After that, contextual influences slowly recede as we grow, until finally we face questions for which there are many equiprobable choices that have never before been faced. This is the expanding wavefront of reality, viewed from inside where we deal with it.

Accepting that we are all manifestations of God, the expanding wavefront of reality for us is also the expanding wavefront of reality for God. As we make decisions and solve problems, we act in the stead of God. Edgar Cayce referred to this as being "co-creators with God". In this role we have whatever information we can glean, whatever education we have experienced, whatever experiences we have endured, plus whatever study we make in order to get more information and advice. After that, we have free will to choose what to do next. And that expands the universe by one more decision.

From this perspective, genetics seem to be the objectified selective aspect of karma, simple cause and effect through which we evolve. In fact, we can see this thread leading to this (or an equivalent) conclusion. As Mr Spock would put it, "Fascinating!"
