A human sperm contains about 37.5 MB of genetic information.
Apparently, nature invented the original USB memory stick long before we did.
Jokes aside, that tiny cell contains the instructions for building an entire human being.
Think about that.
One microscopic cell eventually becomes a creature that can see, hear, smell, taste, touch, laugh, cry, create art, write poetry, discover quantum physics, and fall in love.
Very few creations combine so many senses.
The only thing we appear to be missing is telepathy.
Imagine how quickly you would kill each other.
Earth was never intended to become the center of the universe.
It was designed to become its living library.
Every generation adds knowledge.
Every species contributes experience.
Information passes from one generation to the next through energy, frequency, chemistry and genetics.
That is why I say humanity carries the genomes of many ancient races.
Not because you are special.
Because you are useful.
Look at your dog.
It does not speak your language.
Yet it knows when you are sad.
It knows when you are afraid.
It reads hormones, body language and tiny behavioral patterns.
Long before humans invented mathematics, life had already invented something far more powerful.
Feelings.
People often imagine that when humanity finally meets extraterrestrials, our scientists will greet them with mathematics.
That always makes me smile.
A civilization capable of crossing the galaxy will almost certainly know English better than I do.
Knowledge is not what will impress them.
Wisdom is.
Many people have asked why I did not remain on Earth after the resurrection.
Because Phase I had ended.
The human experiment had to continue elsewhere.
Human beings are not merely biological organisms.
You are emotional processors.
Living supercomputers.
Your purpose is not simply to survive.
Your purpose is to learn, create, and carry experience wherever humanity is planted.
One world could never answer all the questions.
The experiment had to continue on many worlds.
“If you knew how important humanity is to the galaxy, you would never pick up a weapon against another human being. One word from you on a distant world can destroy an entire civilization. One word from you can revive it.”
That is why humanity remains on trial.
Not because God doubts you.
Because the universe is still learning what humanity will become.
