Paddington - introduced the term epigenetic in the 50s
Exercising tells cells to grow more proteins It's ubiquitous
Life is the creator of life Life can alter DNA all the time - ie immune system is doing it all the time Life can alter what it's physiologically doing Life does have purpose /intention Many standard texts rule out of court certain ideas is.Lamark is disallowed Lamark and Darwin did not disagree
