Inherited Trauma via Genetic Passing

***Inherited Trauma via Genetic Passing*** is a research paper by Rose Clintock proving that experiences accumulated during a lifetime are passed down to children through genetic code. It assumes that the reader has already read *Unified Theory of Soul*.

## Summary

The paper begins by Clintock describing the mechanisms that are suspected to be at play in this noticeable effect. Since the soul and genes influence each other, as concluded in *Unified Theory of Soul*, it must therefore stand to reason that as the soul changes, genetics will change as well. Though it is significantly harder than changing the soul, should an individual's genetics be changed, that should likewise change the soul.

Next, Clintock describes how this study was performed and what the expected result would be. A family of eagles would be isolated from each other. One eagle from each familial generation would have their souls forcibly ripped from their bodies and inspected. The expected result of this would be that the parents souls would be measurably different than a control eagle in the areas of the soul that deal with managing a traumatic injury that the eagle once had. The children of this eagle should exhibit this same trauma in the soul, albeit slightly closer to that of the control eagle.

This particular family of eagles was chosen because the eldest pair had sustained some heavy bodily injury during their youths, and had sired two generations of children. The examination of the soul of one of these elder eagles showed several differences from the control eagle (which had just reached maturity after being raised in captivity with no major traumas). The soul showed a strange formation of extremely prominent soul structures around a mapping to the brain associated with movement of the legs. Upon examination of the eagle's corpse, a corresponding scar was found around the left leg. Other odd soul structures found were not as prominent and Clintock concludes that these were inherited. Examination of the children showed exactly what Clintock expected, slightly smaller versions of the traumagenic soul structures. Having proven herself right, Clintock ends her examination and moves on to the next part of her experiment.

Another study was performed to measure a slightly different version of this effect. Psychic wounds were inflicted on one of the eagles, sequencing the eagle's genetic code before and after. The wounds were specifically psychic to ensure that the change in genetic code came from the soul and was not from another natural process in response to damage to the body that never interacted with the soul. The specific damage done was an invasion of the eagle's mind and forcing it to relive painful memories repeatedly. Again, exactly what Clintock expected to see is shown in the data, and she moves on.

With both studies performed, Clintock reasons that we can conclude that her initial hypothesis was correct. Although we cannot both sequence the genes and analyze the soul of an individual before and after trauma (since analyzing a soul is an inherently destructive process), both halves of the study can be inferred to have the same root cause (the other half). She theorizes that this aids in the process of evolution, but neglects to go into detail.

## Notes

1. ↑ Upon being asked why she chose eagles, Clintock stated, "Because they have more developed souls than some other organisms. And I hate them."
