The Selfish DNA
This is a commonly quoted fanciful idea, sponsored by some evolutionists, [Dawkins, 1989]. In summary, it claims that the only valuable form of life is the gene. Genes live as temporary passengers in the bodies of every creature. Multi-cellular creatures act only as vehicles for their sets of genes. Their only aim is to survive in order to eternally transmit their valuable genes to future generations. The genes in every living organism create the blue-print of that organism in ways that help it outwit all potential predators and prey, just as a selfish way for the genes themselves to survive.
The idea of selfish DNA is too fanciful to be taken seriously as science, nor as a philosophical thought:
Genes are all made of Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine. Having achieved the ability to replicate, those 'selfish' genes could have continued to bask in a paradise of blissful existence and replication into Eternity. They could have continued their selfish existence, either as such bare genes, or at the maximum in form of single-celled simple organisms, which has proved to a very stable way of life indeed. From the survival point of view it was surely a very unfortunate decision to manufacture complex multi-cellular 'vehicles' which would fight each other as predator and prey, endangering the very survival of their valuable 'passenger' genes. If two men across the Pacific Ocean would get mad enough to start an atomic hell, then all the genes on this Earth could possibly perish. From square one, life supposedly would have to start uphill all over again.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Do you remember the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? It was originally written in 1886 by a Scottish writer, Robert Stevenson. The tale is narrated by a lawyer, Mr. Utterson, who experiences first the terror of meeting Hyde, and then the shock of realizing that Hyde, a murderer, and Dr. Jekyll are one and the same man. The story has become an almost international folklore tale in every culture. Why? Because the story actually describes a fact: There are both Jekylls and Hydes in every one of us, the white and black faces of a same coin. Morality and Spiritual thoughts have PRECEDED all organised Religions.This not a philosophical speculation, I am describing scientific research; which I am going to detail in next pages.

About the Book
Mankind is defined not as the animals that have souls, but as the animals that can INVENT ideas, and then TALK about them, (inventiveness and language). Signs of these two momentous abilities are documented to have SUDDENLY started only about 30,000 years ago. The G-SAT Theory, detailed in this book, offers a SCIENTIFIC frame, for a master-planned, purely physical process, that initiated Mankind.
DNA is NOT synonymous with 'GENES'. DNA is the ink and paper on which the encoded messages of the genes get recorded. Every year, we come closer to deciphering how these messages work. With this rapidly progressing scientific discipline, we are getting closer, by the day, to scientifically proving my pre-determined-encoded theory.
