Many occult texts claim that the monkeys of today are a result of back crossing human DNA into monkey species long, long ago; and that they have been in regression ever since, turning less human with time.
- zaarn 8y agoI would find that unlikely considering how rarely cross-species reproduction is and we're not talking a different species, it's an entirely different family. Monkeys are largely not compatible enough to produce viable offspring, the last time that I am aware humans cross-bred with non-humans was with Neanderthals. And that's not even mentioning the even remoter chance that the offspring is viable and can reproduce.

- krapp 8y agoI'm not aware of any occult texts which claim this, much less of "many." Can you specify?
- codr4 8y agoLaurency's The Philosopher's Stone is one I'm sure about, fairly certain I read the same thing in Blavatsky's Isis Unveiled. There are more but it's been a long time and I don't have the books available now. Is it really that difficult to imagine? There are all sorts of traces and stories about more advanced civilizations before ours, and more advanced beings than us. As of talking monkeys, people with bird heads and feathers and so on. I'm with Socrates, I don't know anything for sure about this world. What I do know is that the pieces we've been handed don't match up with my experience.
