"Ever hear of “epigenetics?”

Just today, interesting.

But my aim was only to make the focus on the ability to procreate as a defense of what should be considered normal.

An excellent book on epigenetics is Bruce Lipton's book.. “Biology of Belief.” He cites some work done here at Duke University by Randy Jirtle on agouti mice. Here is a link to a video on it:

“Biology of Belief” been out for quite a while and is easy to read even for a layman.

Incidentally, the scientist who did this research is active in a Christian church (His wife was formerly council pres.)
He took genetically identical agouti mice that were predisposed to obesity, diabetes, and cancer and in a controlled environment, changed the diet in the experimental group which significantly altered gene expression. There is a pic of two of the mice at the link.
