I was just reading this: http://www.cyjack.com/cognition/Genetic Memory.pdf and wondered if it could possibly explain memories of past lives, on a scientific note.

Genetic memory essentially doesn't exist. Lamarckian evolution doesn't happen.

Lamarckian evolution...so we meet again.
Memory is all genetics is. Data which has been copied and stored for later retrieval.

Yes but genetic memory is the transferal of memories through genetics, as in, parent to child.

It's like, when a hero defeats a villain in a TV show and then, 100 episodes later, that villain shows up again.

Genes remember tons which is why we have instincts.
Actually, sounds like a Bad*** TV show lol
I was talking more about experience memories. Like one of your future ancestors might have memory of reading this post.

Depends on how you are defining memory...
If you are using my ability to recall what I did last week... then no, it's not genetic.
It's a pattern of neurons firing in my brain. Different patterns contain different memories. Plus one cell for Jennifer Anneston.
Apparently single faces can be recalled by single cells or are tied into any thoughts about said person.

The silly idea of memories being stored genetically is the main premise of AC
It didn't seem to appear in the first game, at least from what I've understood of the game. But I'm sure they weren't the first to come up with the idea. The theory has been around for quite so long.
