Brother Kenneth @CopelandNetwork on Why #DNATests aren't as True as 'Family History' | @isogg @WashingtonPost @EWarren #BroadbandSquare #EvolvingCreation @Ecosia #DNA
In a broadcast where he was talking about blood-covenants, Kenneth Copeland got to talking about how he always wanted a blood-brother; because he 'knew' (through family-history ... his grandfather was a full-blooded Cherokee (Native Americana)) that he was an Indian, and (he thought as a child) "Indians are supposed to have blood-brothers."
Before he got back into the 'blood-covenant' talk, he veered a little into 'why he stopped claiming that he was an Indian'—he had sent off for 'one of those DNA-tests,' and there wasn't any Indian in the results he got back.
But they did find some Irish. Turns out that (Elizabeth "Senator Pocahontas" Warren might want to hear) The Irish immigrated & intermarried so much with the Indians that they're indistinguishable by their blood.
I watched the broadcast late that night (one of the many wonders of the AT&T U-VERSE ... you can set it to digitally record series & play them back whenever you feel like it), so I wanted to see if I could find that broadcast online ... I might search more-specifically later, but what my simple search found was—it seems DNA has inspired more Gospel-dialogue than 'just that one broadcast.'
'That initialism' (below-hyperlinked to the tree-planting 'KCM DNA' video search-results) is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The initialism “DNA” stands for "Deoxyribonucleic Acid."
The word "Deoxyribonucleic" is built on "Deoxyribose + Nucleic (referring to a Nucleus)" (as it's a nucleic acid which yields deoxyribose on hydrolysis).
"Deoxyribose" is obviously "Deoxy- (because the 2' hydroxyl (-OH) in the sugar is in this case reduced to a hydrogen (H) by loss of an oxygen) + Ribose."
"Deoxy-" is a prefix that indicates that a compound has Fewer |Oxygen-atoms than normal.
"Ribose" is an abbreviation of an English name for a tetrahydroxy acid—a Sugar so-called because it's formed from "Gum Arabic."

I appreciate your comment, and I'll probably approve it & publish it soon (give me about a week before you try to post it again when it doesn't publish immediately ... thanks)
