(new-muh-JEN-uh-see) (noun): The study or belief that the human genome is a divinely coded "receptor" for the soul; the philosophical intersection where biological heredity (DNA) acts as the specific tuning mechanism for an individual’s spiritual essence. It posits that genetics do not create the soul, but rather provide the unique physical architecture required for a soul to manifest in the material world. Etymological Breakdown Pneuma- (Greek pneuma): Meaning "breath," "spirit," or "soul." In theology and ancient philosophy, it refers to the vital force of a person. -gen- (Greek genesis): Meaning "origin" or "birth." This connects directly to Genetics and the biological coding of life. -esy (Suffix): Often used to denote a state, quality, or a systematic field of study (similar to theosophy or prophecy).
