The role of technological miracles in mentoring lesser civilizations

"If we content culture is a shared system of socially transmitted behaviour that describes, defines, and guides people’s ways of life, communicated from one generation to the next, tampering with culture in specific ways would allow to shape global development of a civilization. From miracles to UFO sightings our role has always been to mentor and guide people's ways of life taking due care to avoid disconnecting them from their natural evolutionary path."

"Perceptual processes are influenced by culture. Exposed to the same stimulus, a given society may perceive an "angel", while another society may perceive "an alien being", or even "the blessed Virgin Mary". Therefore, default patterns can also be modified temporarily by priming with cultural cues. The problem is: how far can we go with that priming with cultural cues? What impact do our missions really have on a lesser previously uncontacted world? How do we know whether we are simply priming, or rather contaminating?"

"biological imperatives dictate the rules of adaptation and living, hence genetic manipulation is sometimes prescribed as a way to increase survival probability, even after the environment has been modified and manipulated to drive a species development. Changing the environment might be expected to produce at least a temporary change in default patterns of perception, and if that fails, genetic manipulation is the last resort."
