Peer reviewedThe (human) genome functions as an open system within human nutritional, economic, cultural, intellectual and
emotional contexts. Of profound importance is the extent of free will that emerged with our cognitive and
consciousness traits. We have been instrumental in creating particular environments and semiotics according to
which we live and with which our genes are expressed. The possibility exists that an information continuum
between genes, brain and environment may follow quantum rules and exhibit correlated properties that result in
coordinated behaviour (entanglement), even without signal transfer or interaction. With the unprecedented
technological advances made during the last century, for the first time a biological organism can, in theory,
purposefully design its own future evolution. This is likely to remain limited by ultimate unpredictability due to
emergent novelties arising during the process. The effect(s) of a strong human strategic guiding influence, however,
implies a tremendous moral responsibility to help shape future outcomes which will enhance the continued existence
of quality Life on Earth. How are we doing so far, and how can we exploit knowledge of the possible structural basis
of genomic memory and the principles linked with self organisation and emergence to avoid recurrence of outcomes
previously shown to have had negative consequences for Life. Can we feed back crucial brain memories to the
germline contrary to prevailing dogma, and does this contribute to a compound interest situation not only of
intellectual ability but also of a hereditary basis for augmenting ("negative", Machiavellian type) moral behaviour
previously found to be successful for pure biological survival?Research Institute for Theology and Religio
