Does God exist inside of human DNA

[Bahman]

Genesis 1:27New King James Version

27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Does this bible passage, mean the same thing today, as it did 500, 1000, or 2000 years ago? I doubt it, because now we know that our image comes from our DNA, and that DNA controls every aspect of what we are. So if we are created in the DNA image of God, we should be able to be God. Would God create something that was ignorant and useless, or would he recreate the knowledge of himself in order to give us the ability to rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

So does DNA hold the image of God?

God will always stay in your doubt since once you define/see it then it is not God anymore.

I know what the Pope meant, and I am CERTAINLY not the literalist here, in fact that is comical. There are people here quoting the catechism, and believing that the human soul is immortal. Why, because the same dudes who proclaimed that the Earth is the center of the universe, said so…

Not mentioning any particular granny.

I don’t have any particular desire to discuss in this thread, but I am curious about your current religious beliefs? Your CAF account says Roman Catholic, yet your posts would seem to indicate that you are not. Just curious.

This is a logical statement, because no one has ever seen God, minus a few schizophrenics at least.

I was married by my uncle, who was a priest, who had a sister who was a nun. My post infer God thru science, not thru knowledge-less faith. DNA is not alive, yet makes us all that we are, those who believe in evolution, and no God, claim that life was created by nothingness in a pond one day. Since even the smallest one celled organism, has hundreds of thousands of lines of DNA code, this is not possible, from any scientific or mathematical standpoint. Thus a creator is mandated, not explained, but scientifically needed in order to complete the equation of where did life come from.

However explaining these ideas to people that are seriously quoting the catechism, something that I studied when I was 5 years old, is fruitless, this I know.

But God is very real, and his existence is being proved, not disproved by science.

Amen…!

 

[Kmon23]

DNA is still not understood, was God one lone individual, all alone in the universe, or was God just, another group of beings, from another place, that might be very similar to us?

Thanks for the response. I can understand very much that science should not disprove God but should only further be a reflection of God’s existence. Being a physics major myself, that is a belief I share.

It’s just your previous comment like the one I just quoted above that made me think you weren’t necessarily Catholic, and maybe something closer to Mormonism, unless the quote above is just an example to make a point (even so, it’s just something most Christians wouldn’t say, which made raise an eybrow).

DNA may be a good model for explaining how life on earth works, but not the immortal soul. The soul is not confined to the earth. When we die the soul separates from the earthly body. It has nothing to do with earthly DNA.

That’s true. Mormon believe the soul is made of matter or something like that.

Ah yes, the Pope also raised eyebrows, when he endorsed evolution, and said that he would baptize a Martian… So is the Pope a Mormon too?

Amen

From where does this information come?

God never said it, nor inferred it.

How do you know what God said or inferred? As a matter of fact, Jesus is God and he said it plenty of times. So did many other prophets who were the mouthpieces of God.

I ask you for the source of your quote, from where did it come?

Don’t be shy, let us know the source of your knowledge?

Christine, you are evading a simple question, how do you know what the soul is, and from where did you get this information?

 

[CHRISTINE77]

Christine, you are evading a simple question, how do you know what the soul is, and from where did you get this information?

I got it from God.

Where did you get your information about the soul being made out of matter?

 

[The_DNA_Rose]

I got it from God.

Where did you get your information about the soul being made out of matter?

When did God talk to you? and for how long? did you see him, or did his voice just come into your head?

Just asking

I never said the soul was made of matter, In fact my first words were, “Well, I don’t know”.

Yes you did, you said the soul is made of DNA.

Yes I pray to God and listen in my heart to his answers. That’s what Christians do. You are not a Catholic or even a Christian. I really don’t know what you are except an imposter.

What I said…

So is DNA the immortal soul of man?

---

Well, I don’t know, but it was stated here that the soul is immortal, and that got me thinking, about a dead mammoth, that is currently in the process of being cloned, hopefully. Just the fact that a 40,000 year old mammoth is seriously being studied for return to life, does mean that the scientist trying this, believe that DNA does not need to be alive, to function. Which is pretty neat to me, because it makes it plausible, that a creator, could have created DNA, and then inserted it where he wanted it, to make life. It is also theorized that DNA contains every instruction that it has ever used, even ones now not used in the so called junk DNA, which would mean, that if we are made in the image of God, that the exact image of God is somewhere in the billions of lines of code that we carry in every cell. DNA is also as far as we know 3.5 billion years old, which might as well be immortal.

Thus you are shown to be wrong, as I said that I DON"T KNOW.

Why are you fibbing?

I’m speaking of your previous post that said God could be one of a group of beings from another place (somewhat like Mormonism), which is in contrast to the Catholic belief that God is the supreme being of all creation and existence. That is what my question was pertaining to.

Ah, and was it not Catholic belief, that the Sun revolved around the Earth?

Where did this Catholic belief come from, since no Catholic then or now has ever seen God, in the first place.

The belief of geocentric model is not a de fide belief. The belief of God being a supreme being of existence is a de fide belief.

And God being the supreme being is through divine revelation from the prophets and the apostles.
