Selfish Gene!

This article is on the famous writing of Richard Dawkins - The Selfish Gene.
I feel we have very little idea on how the genes operate - and the whole world of ours is nothing but void. All of us are programmed by some unknow power (God ?) ... little robots moving about. Each and every damned activity is a result of genes - yes even our very thinking process and what we call 'rational' thinking.

Just imagine how co-ordinated the process is - an astronaut staying three months in space has a decreased bone density! Eeeehhh - doesn't it seem like a Terminator 2 movie - the system automatically discards what is unnecessary and adapts to the environment. a low gravitation force on the surface of the moon does not necessitate a strong skeleton.

Recall stem cell - a sperm and an ova - forms a single cell and that itself diversifies into multiple functions/organs over a period of time. So who dictates which cell will become what ? Genes.
It will takes years to reveal the power of genes.

Now the obvious question of surrounding/environment. How does that affect us ? Will clones grow up the same way. No. They would interact with the external universe. What if if I keep two clones under the same test conditions. This is impossible - as even in case of protons and neutrons according to quantum theory (Pauli's exclusion principle)! Where on the earth can you create identical universe on a macrolevel that is observable.

Crazy!
