USING CRISPR To Edit History/ Why Cancer or other Illness Didn't "Evolve" To Reduce Overcrowding
It's believed by some that cancer (or its behavioral parallel) might be a more basic survival mode in evolution, anaerobic or without oxygen compared to aerobic, for efficiency, etc. as in like hibernation (winter) or estavation, the summer equivalent. Estavation and hibernation evolved by way of a shortage of energy resources, not because of snores! They make more efficient use of the resources and are an evolved adaptation.
The idea that cancer evolved to control overcrowding for early life would then imply it isn't of any value for more highly evolved large organisms because what would have reduced the overcrowding in a pond of bacteria instead would kill the entire higher evolved individual. Cancer with more basic evolution would be an adaptation and the other not in favor of the survival of genes.
Over millions of years if so evolution would seem to have selected out cancer or other illness for higher life. Insects and fish aren't like higher life in that while they get all kinds of other diseases with overcrowding in studies, they don't get mental illness like higher life (mammals, birds etc.)
Another problem is about the way that cancer cells don't die. In the pond of bacteria, if the cancer was an adaptation of value, all the cells in the pond would have gotten cancer and then lived an undying death. I don't know what an "undying death" would mean, perhaps having to watch 1000 years of NFL! Grand Opera can't wait!
I've exercised an hour each month for 20 years no one else could have other than me for me, even so I think a gyroscope exercise machine might solve for a solution for the rich. Sounds like optimal for me!
I would say mental illness and cancer no more evolved to control overcrowding than heart problems "evolved" because of all the fat and salt added by food processing or that people are stressed in a heat wave because they "evolved" to . These problems are not a measure of evolution, rather I'd say they're a measure of evolution's lack of adaptation or reduced ability to adapt.
When most are criticizing America around the world and studies show including most Americans, this may not be an evolved adaptation. The reason is if the US govt. fails there will be a huge economic uproar. And since money is so important, having to do with supply and demand, resources per person, and competition, as with the money crash of 29, the events may be severe.
There's a deep truth here, if we were unkind to evolution by removing predators and the competition is rising because of reduced resources, or at least don't recognize her great power by paying evolution some respect and reducing the overpopulation, nature will return if by no more than the lack of evolution. Bad behavior like good gravitates to its own level. To me there seems a deep need to reduce the overcrowding, not by violence we may not survive, but by recognizing this truth and reducing peacefully before it's too late.
How to do this? One of the best methods I can think of might be by using the CRISPR (cheap gene editing) method. This powerful recent method would be a comfortable way to reduce family size, and return to a golden age like Ancient Greece or the 1600's when the overcrowding was lowest in all of history, not onward to what seems to be an uproar. The beauty of the CRISPR method is later we could reedit the genes to "normal" so the level doesn't fall too low and no one feels left out. See my Link Evolution and History Upper Left Link of the page. For more about the CRISPR method for overcrowding, see second post of that page, or see link at end of the post.
Don't find fault, find a solution, some say. Or the legal maxim, when in doubt, lean to the side of mercy. Instead of finding blame for the problems the world is having reducing the strain may be far more valuable. This is a more reliable way for people to stay out of trouble or have more cash, plus all the things that are good in life.. It's great to be an optimist, even so common sense has it's advantages., and sometimes I recognize the treasure that the saying like a giant river love without truth can do untold damage, overrunning the shores. Love others but too much quantity reduces quality of life. To me the debt as it's building up seems like how people have done something due to the overpopulation like robbing the banks, about VISA and it won't work. Blame is not the solution, finding a solution like via CRISPR seems wiser.
As I say on my site there "Evolution, Overcrowding, and Its Historic Influence" there are four great parallel ages in Eurasia E and W, the classic age, a dark age, a second golden age, and a modern age. And the general levels of overcrowding were the same in both zones E and W yet there seems to be no other connection between i.e. Ming dynasty and 1600's Europe. If we flip a coin four times and get the probability of this being coincidence, it's 1 in 16, flip it four more times and the cause of it being luck goes down to a mere 1 in 256. This seems evidence to me that overpopulation has shaped the general contour of history in a powerful way (Good times no overcrowding, bad times overcrowding) and the CRISPR method may be a wise way to achieve control of history.
