Here is an interesting article that supports my conjecture for DNA entanglement (nonlocality) - for if every cell in a body houses an identical suite of DNA and chromosomes within its nucleus, then, following through on the thesis of this article, this would seem to suggest that DNA entanglement is integral to life, identity and the binding problem: http://nautil.us/issue/30/identity/quantum-mechanics-is-putting-human-identi ty-on-trial (DNA entanglement would also be entropically friendly, unlike the genocentric-materialist paradigm)

Due to uncertainties wrt copyright, I won't include his tweet here. But we should be paying attention. In another forum, I posted the following comment that succinctly summarizes my position and the problem with the genocentric paradigm: To the materialist paradigm, we owe the infotech narrative that portrays DNA as "data" to be computed. Yet there is no sign anywhere of said "computer". Hello? And these people call themselves scientists? And to extend the absurdity of their "just so" narrative they might suggest that the computer is somehow bound into the molecular sequences and structures around which all reactions take place, as if this somehow ameliorates their position. It does not. The absurdity remains because the complex properties of the subatomic, atomic and molecular structures that make life possible still need to be accounted for. As if by magic, their materialist complexity emerges contrary to the laws of thermodynamics and the forces of entropy that are arrayed against it. Whether it's "because natural selection" or "because genes" or "because epigenetics" or "because Darwin" or "because evo-psych" or "because hunter-gatherers of the Pleistocene", there is no axiomatic framework that hangs together. They have no axiomatic framework. These labcoats masquerading as scientists don't even know what an axiomatic framework is or what it is for. The materialist paradigm is an unprecedented woo on steroids.
