New discoveries in genetics are raising explosive questions about the origins and evolution of humanity. Some scientists believe that the unique genetic traits of humans, which set us apart from any other species on Earth, may be evidence of intervention by an external intelligence.
Since Darwin proposed the theory of evolution, humanity has never ceased to explore its own origins. The theory of evolution not only explains biodiversity but also addresses fundamental issues about what it means to be human.
Darwin believed that humans, like other organisms on Earth, are the products of natural selection over a long period. This viewpoint sparked considerable controversy at the time because it challenged the unique position of humans in nature.
However, as time went on, Darwin’s theory gradually gained acceptance within the scientific community, and with advancements in genetics, molecular biology, and other fields, the theory of evolution has been increasingly affirmed and refined. Yet, doubt about evolution persists. These questions do not focus on the evolutionary relationships among all species, but rather on whether humans actually evolved from ancient apes. They argue that natural selection alone cannot explain the evolution from a primitive creature to an extremely intelligent human, suggesting that some form of external intervention or guidance must have occurred.
Biostatistician Catherine Pollard has expressed her views on this matter. She believes that the DNA changes in humans are insufficient to support the theory that natural selection evolved ancient apes into modern humans. In her perspective, over millions of years of evolution, the highly conserved DNA sequences in humans should not have changed continuously.
Thus, from this viewpoint, ancient apes could not have evolved into modern humans. Yet, currently, much scientific evidence has demonstrated that ancient apes indeed became humans. Does this imply that some sort of force truly intervened in this process? Is it true, as some rumors suggest, that Earth is a prison of ancient civilizations and humans are prisoners exiled within?
This question has remained unanswered until more than a decade ago, and recent discoveries by scientists regarding DNA seem to add credibility to these rumors. An academic journal once published a study conducted by two scientists from the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute – Marcus and Shmilov. In their paper, they pointed out that there are reasons and evidence to believe that humans are the product of some form of genetic engineering. Marcus and Shmilov discovered that in the genetic code, certain codons (genetic codes) exhibit special numerical patterns and hieroglyphic symbols.
They referred to these codons as the signs of a “smart signal source”. They found that the total number of bases in some codons is 37, and 37 is a prime number, meaning it can only be divided by 1 and itself. They believe that prime numbers represent a universal mathematical language that could be used to communicate with extraterrestrial intelligence. They also discovered that the total number of bases in some codons is 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, etc., and these numbers are all divisible by 3. They think this is a system of hieroglyphic symbols that could be used to represent various geometric shapes.
Six could symbolize a square, nine could symbolize an equilateral triangle, twelve could symbolize a regular hexagon, fifteen could symbolize a five-pointed star, eighteen could symbolize a six-pointed star, and so forth. They believe that these numerical patterns and hieroglyphic systems are signals deliberately left in human DNA by extraterrestrial life to demonstrate that humans were designed by aliens.
Marcus and Shmilov hypothesized that humans were carefully designed and created by extraterrestrials. They believe that aliens used the existing materials and living conditions on Earth to genetically modify and optimize primitive life, allowing it to evolve into modern humans. Initially, they regarded these findings as mere coincidences, but through extensive reasoning and calculations, they concluded that the probability of such coincidences occurring is very low, at only one in ten trillion.
In fact, scientists discovered the mystery of these numbers in human DNA at the beginning of the 21st century, but found no convincing explanations, and they could only be considered pure coincidences.
If we assume that these numbers are indeed traces left by some kind of force in human DNA, we cannot help but wonder, who arranged all of these, and why did they do it?
Perhaps the “laboratory theory” could provide some inspiration. According to this theory, scientists believe that the universe is indeed very vibrant as it is 13.8 billion years old. However, we have discovered that the universe is unusually quiet, far from what we expected.
To explain this phenomenon, some scientists have proposed the “laboratory theory,” suggesting that the reason the universe appears silent to humans is not that there are no other civilizations in the universe, but because humans are in a laboratory created by advanced civilizations in the region.
To observe and study humans, these advanced civilizations would not allow humans to be aware of the existence of other civilizations. If the scenario described by the laboratory theory is true, then not only would the aforementioned numbers have reasonable explanations, but even the identity of UFOs could be explained. They may be cameras in the laboratory or monitoring devices used by advanced civilizations to observe human behavior and reactions.
So how valid is the “laboratory theory”? North Sentinel Island in the Bay of Bengal is an interesting case. Approximately 400 indigenous people live on this island. Their civilization is believed to be stuck in the Stone Age, thousands, if not tens of thousands, of years away from the outside world.
Due to their long isolation from the outside world, the inhabitants of the island have no immunity to viruses and bacteria from outside, making them highly susceptible to infection. To protect these last primitive humans, North Sentinel Island has banned anyone from approaching. Researchers can only quietly observe their development from outside the island. The existence of this island has sparked deep reflections on human evolution and the development of civilization. Some scientists and philosophers have hypothesized: If there were a civilization more advanced than humans, could human society on Earth be considered “North Sentinel Island” in their eyes?
From the perspective of this more advanced civilization, we might simply be an example of a natural evolutionary process in the universe. However, it must be clarified that these are merely speculations about the origins of human life from different angles and cannot become mainstream scientific theories.
Currently, the development of genetic science is providing us with more clues about the origins of humanity. By studying the genetic information in the human genome, the relationship between humans and other species, and human evolution, we can gradually uncover the mystery of the origins of human life.
The genetic mysteries of humans:
Complex genetic codes: Human DNA contains about 3 billion base pairs, more than any other species except some great apes. However, what makes human DNA unique is not only its size but also its complexity. Our genome contains many protein-coding sequences with no clear function, known as junk DNA. Some scientists believe that this junk DNA may be remnants of genetic codes that have been altered by an external intelligence.
Remarkable Brain Development: The human brain is significantly larger than that of any other species with a comparable body size, and it possesses a far more complex structure. Human cognitive abilities, language, and abstract thinking far surpass those of any other species, leading some scientists to believe that this can only be explained by external intervention.
Sudden Emergence of Modern Humans: Fossil records indicate that modern humans emerged abruptly around 200,000 years ago, which is relatively late compared to other ape species. This sudden appearance lacks a clear explanation through conventional evolutionary theory, and some scientists believe it may serve as evidence of intervention by an external intelligence that accelerated human development.
