"And upon this came his disciples" - Fatal Genes or DNAs from Viruses

Fatal Genes or DNAs from Viruses

It is said that the Neanderthal man lived in the period between 400,000 years ago and 40,000 years ago.  However, DNAs of every non-African person of today include about 2% of DNAs from the Neanderthal man.

And it is also widely believed that every person of today carries special traits in its mitochondria in cells that were transferred from a woman called Mitochondrial Eve who lived 160,000 years ago in Africa.

Furthermore, some Japanese scientists believe that the mankind started to include, in their genes, some genes originated in viruses about 40 million years ago or earlier.

So, we cannot tell that the mankind of today are members of a species who only and purely inherited genes and DNAs from its own direct ancestors since the birth of living things on the earth 3.8 billion years ago.  In other words, we don't know where genes and DNAs we have came from or were originally generated.

Genes and DNAs of each person of today include those that were originated in one specific woman of our species, another type of Homo genus, ancient viruses, etc. in past 3.8 billion years.

If Christ Jesus had His own children, some specific genes and DNAs originated in Christ Jesus or His children might have been transferred to some of us.

In future, some viruses in the nature might succeed to transfer some of their genes into human genes.  Indeed, it is afraid that some countries are making study to cause such transfer or change genes of some viruses and make biological weapons.

Viruses should be regarded as another type of living things, although their basic structure is different from that of other living things including procaryotic organisms and eukaryotic organisms such as the mankind.  Viruses came to exist about three billion years ago.  And, it is believed that viruses played an important role in the emergence of the mammal 200 million years ago and the establishment of the primates 50 million years ago.

So, if the God decided to destroy the mankind, it is natural to think that the God would use viruses to infuse some fatal genes or DNAs into those of the mankind.  In this context, this corona-virus pandemic is thought to be a warning to the mankind.  If the mankind continues to disregard the teachings of Christ Jesus and the words of the God, the God might send to the human world the Angel of Death who should use viruses as its weapons.

However, according to the history, even the Black Death, a pandemic that killed at least one third of Europeans in the 14th century, did not exterminate the mankind.  The God may allow us to further survive into the 22nd, 220th, and 2,200th century or more.

Nonetheless, Isaac Newton got a conclusion after his long-term study of the Bible that it would be no wonder if the end of the world should come at any time after 2060.

We had better prepare for the next pandemic expected to come 10 or 20 years later in this century (even if this corona pandemic is ended in this summer without the second wave).

Cell, chromosome, gene and DNA
Each chromosome is made up of tightly coiled strands of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Genes are segments of DNA that determine specific traits, such as eye or hair color. You have more than 20,000 genes. You have two copies of each gene — one inherited from each of your parents.

John 4 King James Version (KJV)
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
