Are religious texts full of 'junk' code that may never get expressed or only get expressed due to environmental needs or pressure?

Say a religion feels threatened, are some follows likely to use certain parts of their religious texts as reasons to lash out or fight back?

According to Wikipedia, "functional genomics focus on the dynamic aspects such as gene transcription, translation, and protein-protein interactions, as opposed to the static aspects of the genomic information such as DNA sequence or structures." This means that the 3% that is considered to be non-junk is categorised as that because of the functional genomic perspective. Another way to write function is the -ure suffix. As cult is to culture, press is to pressure, legislate is to legislature, genomic could be to genomicure. A cure is what you do to make concrete dry more slowly or to make ham smell smoky.

There are SINEs (Short interspersed nuclear element) and LINEs (Long interspersed nuclear element).

Anyway, I've just spent a good couple of hours looking at info about DNA. I'm figuring it out bit by bit. I'm mostly interested in transposons and retrotransposons.

If we use 3% of our DNA, is that during our entire lifetime, or just at any particular point in time? Besides that, is there a difference between how religious people use their bodies and minds and how non-religious people do? For example, analogy means finding proportion between things. It's apparently linked to facial recognition, as is the visuospatial sketchpad slave of working memory according to Baddeley's model. Metaphor is similar to analogy, but it's more deliberate and direct. It means bearing the meaning of one word over to another word. Therefore, if your idea of recognising faces or reading scripture is to find analogies, then you are merely dealing with a Phythagorean-type "universe in the language of numbers" scenario. You're looking for things that seem of similar proportions. You'll form a cult trying. It's too much from a human perspective. Metaphor, however, means that one word does represent another word. It's like code, only without the surrounding padding of syndication. It does rely on prayer if you're talking about the Bible.

For that matter, according to the Bible, Christians are capable of passing through fire, surviving snake bite and according to the prophet Daniel's example, can deal with wild animals.

Well, DNA is made of four basic parts, Guanine, Cytocene, Thymene, and Adenine. Whereas words are made of 52 varieties of symbols, not including punctuation. Furthremore, the meaning of text has some ambiguity, wheras DNA has a solid concrete decoding sequence.

Cheers ^_^

ok the following is the element. For me, i actually trust in my God. and that i trust each word of the bible as God's word. So if some being got here up and stated what you're saying i must recognize that it replaced right into a deceptive trick. we are informed contained in the most suitable days there'll be someone, the Antichrist, who will paintings miracles. And we are informed this stuff so we is not likely deceived. we are informed how Jesus will go back or perhaps as. no longer the day and the hour yet what happenings it is going to follow. For the express objective of no longer being deceived. and also if it were no longer authentic God ought to have stated somewhat of permitting each and each of the prophecies contained in the bibles pages to be fulfilled. even as His children talk over with Him in prayer He ought to have already set us instantly.

The DNA have incredible logic patterns.
The religious text are completely illogical and contradictory.

Religous abuse comes in all shapes and sizes. As ignorance, it knows no boundaries. They can be taken out of context and are quite often.
I believe that the majority of religous texts are to be used as parables or lessons. Perhaps guidelines on how to live our lives.
Not sure if this is what you're looking for...just my take on it.

Yes if you can search the expressed thoughts with in you. DNA means self realisation/ meditation searching youself with in you.

That's an interesting simile.

I think if you apply that 'junk code' metaphor to the broader 'meme' concept, it still works.

No. The Bible is not a code. It says in the Bible that it was written simply, to be understood.
