The Legendary Emperor Fu Xi and His Wife Nu Kua

The picture on the left was found in a royal tomb dating back to the second century B.C. It was found in the western region of China (Trupan) near China's border to the Middle East. The picture depicts Fu Xi, the emperor who governed the eastern part of China 5,000 years ago. He is thought to be the first person and the one who created the trigrams of the I Ching. The picture also depicts his wife Nu Kua whom, according to legend, created people by blowing air into clay formed into the shape of human beings.

According to legend and the depiction on the cloth, both Fu Xi and Nu Kua had upper bodies that were in the form of humans and lower bodies in the form of snakes. Fu Xi was regarded as the first male and in the picture holds a square, thought to be needed for the creation of all things, while Nu Kua, the first female, holds a protractor. The lower bodies of the couple are intertwined. Surrounding them are many stars, while on the upper and lower centers are two wheels. Many similar drawings, either on cloth or stone, have been excavated in China over the past 50 years.

Though this drawing does not have a single word, it suggests many things. Fu Xi symbolizes Yang while Nu Kua symbolizes Yin. The intertwined lower bodies symbolize the union of Yin and Yang or Tai Chi. The surrounding stars, the square (Yang), and the protractor (Yin) imply that they have created all things in the universe in accordance to the principles of Tai Chi and Yin-Yang. Though the meaning of the wheels is not clear, it is possible that they are representative of the sun and moon and their orbits, or the circular arrangement of the I Ching's hexagrams.

From this picture, it seems as though Fu Xi, who created the trigrams and hexagrams as the code of all things in creation, was aware of the genetic code. The intertwined bodies of Fu Xi and Nu Kua effectively illustrate how a single strand of DNA from a father and a single strand of DNA from a mother are intertwined in a zygote. The upper bodies of Fu Xi and Nu

Well, the first video you posted is utterly wrong. The "scientist" (geneticist) claims that mutations are always either harmful or neutral--that there is no such thing as positive mutation. That's wrong. He then says that species can adapt to their enviroment through sexual recombination and that this "genetic drift" is responsible for any appearance of variations among species. I especially loved how he said evolution isn't science and that scientists "tend to believe one another," and that the vast majority of them have been duped by the bad apples who say there is evidence for evolution when there really isn't.

What else do we have here. A few videos from Answers in Genesis, a well known creationist website with a history of dishonesty. Some crackpot links attempting to suggest that ancient cultures had knowledge of DNA based on artistic designs....some crap about Atlantis... yeah, pretty much all junk.

I ain't gonna slog through all o' that.

I did like the illustration of the "DNA" representation because I know what inspired it:



The male combat dance, in this case western diamondback rattlesnakes (Crotalus atrox), is very common among serpents. I have observed it on numerous occasions.

Ahhh, very cool, filthy. I wouldn't have seen that. Don't some snakes also intertwine like that when mating, which is what seems to me to be suggested by the male and female in the illustration?

The combat dance is strictly between males and is part of the courting ritual. It can last for as much as several hours (a couple of trans pecos copperheads [Agkistrodon contortrix pictigastor] once went at it almost all night in a cage in my living room) and the winner gets the lovely lady -- as is right and proper. There is never any biting; rather it might be described as a wrestling match. On one occasion, I watched no less than four timber rattlers dance together.

Actual breeding seldom entwines except in those species, such as anacondas, that actually get into breeding 'balls'. In those cases, one female is wrapped up by numerous, much smaller males, all struggling to get lucky.

Edit: The myth that this rather beautiful ceremony is between male and female persists today, and as it is difficult for the untrained eye (and sometimes even the experienced one) to differentiate gender in serpents, I've no doubt that it will continue on.

It's a bit of a stretch to see that Emperor graphic as supposed DNA. Clearly the snake is much more plausible. Heck I haven't even seen anything from before the 1700s that so much as implies anyone even thought microscopic organisms existed let alone molecules.

It's no surprise because the pre-natal I Ching arrangement corresponds to the DNA
