Genealogy As A Tool For Self-Knowledge & Family Therapy
(archived)
Beginning to learn about one's heritage, even by speaking with available
older relatives about their pasts, can help facilitate self-awareness as a
member of a group and provide a bridge to a forgotten cultural base,
empowering individuals and family systems to confirm or reweave their
values, identify patterns, and make changes in personal, family and cultural
activities; all of which in turn may give hope for curing present social ills.

Studies of extant records are a reality check, showing that
early church,
civil laws and historical common group practices present a great
hindrance,
in accepting DNA projections as conclusive or genealogically
practical. Thus,
scientific DNA studies appear to be subject to historical
marital happiness within
the set of any given ancestry. [DNA testing relies on
unbroken male lineages. It
can be foiled by unknown breaks in the blood line. Sources of
breaks include:
(1) hanky-panky with the neighbor,
(2) a pregnant bride marrying the wrong man
(3) unrecorded adoptions.]

DNA Testing by
Ancestry.com Reveals Ancestry & Genealogy
Research Note: DNA myths about discovering ancient

documentation.

assumptions of origins.

Testing for Genealogy
" Most Recent Common Ancestor Calculations: By
using average marker mutation
rates it is possible to compare two profiles and
back-calculate how long ago their
most recent common ancestor lived. This method is
derived from anthropological
science and although of some use, has a margin of
error that reduces its usefulness
in individual family history studies."

DNA Testing,
has many incorrect assumptions,
directly contradicted by ancient
records and biblical testimony. In
Luke 17: 26-30, the words
of Jesus Christ say:
"And as it was in the days of
Noe,
so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in
marriage, until
the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood
came, and destroyed them
all." Human populations, from the early families of Noah, after the
world wide
division of the earth, were comparatively small, isolated groups,
geographically
independent from each other over many hundreds of years, subsequently
brought
together by colonization migrations.
Japheth's descendants,
Ham's
descendants
and Shem's
descendants, were physically mobile and
widespread, upon the total
undivided land mass of the globe. This is verified by the
DNA Tribes® Personal
Genetic Analysis
and (pdf)
of world regions, confirming that "within the borders
of nearly all regions, individuals can be found with genetic ties to
neighboring
and sometimes distant regions."
Reference: 012:
NOAH
(the son of LAMECH).
Historical records invalidate as false
pseudoscience,
DNA male projections in
origins, prior to 3000 B.C., or female projections in origins, prior to
4000 B.C.
The atlas of recorded human history invalidates false time assumptions of
origins.

In Search of
Our "Biblical Common Ancestor"
Christians need to realize that several assumptions in the scientific

are distinctly evolutionary and hence unbiblical. Realistically, a

amount of the data is subject to conjecture from cladistics, demographic
models,
and parsimony analysis. This discussion will evaluate the
scientific methods
used to certify these results and determine if the conclusions are
justified.

Origin of Man
“God created man in his own image” (Gen.
1:27). . . .
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, basing its belief
on
divine revelation, ancient and modern, proclaims man to be
the direct and lineal offspring
of Deity. God Himself is an exalted
man, perfected, enthroned, and supreme. By
His almighty power He
organized the earth and all that it contains, from spirit and element,
which exist coeternally with Himself. He formed every plant that grows
and
every animal that breathes, each after its own kind, spiritually and
temporally --“that
which is spiritual being in the likeness of that which is
temporal, and that which is
temporal in the likeness of that which is spiritual.”

Spiritual Matter | Book of Mormon Research
"Spirit is a substance; that it is material, but that it is
more pure, elastic
and refined matter than the body; that it existed before the body, can
exist in the body; and will exist separate from the body, when the body
will be mouldering in the dust; and will in the resurrection,
be again united with it. (History of
the Church 4:575).

When investigators attempt to document and study the natural history
of an inherited disease, condition, or characteristic, they do so by
identifying individual members of families presenting the disease,
condition, or characteristic and obtaining information about them
and the other members of their family. The result is a pedigree analysis,
which, in addition to tracing the natural history of a disease and documenting
the range of symptoms involved, may also reveal information about family
members that individual members may not have known about previously
(e.g., the existence of previously unknown relatives or the presence
of stigmatizing diseases, such as
mental illness).
- Personal Genome Project
can establish a complete sequence and analysis of
the
Genome, while
treating as meaningless, the very concept of real attachment
to one's own personal family ancestry, as well as true faith in mankind's
biblical
heritage. Jesus Christ said: "For what shall it profit a man, if he
shall gain the
whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in
exchange for
his soul?" DNA has no value beyond the validation of real human
relationships.
