Could we one day be born with an understanding of language and other practical knowledge?
Post Body

Has anyone else seen this documentary called "A Murder of Crows" ( full video linked below)... it's amazing that facial recognition can be passed down between generations in crows. I'm not sure if they are implying its being done genetically or communicated somehow tho.I've always wondered what levels of thought could be passed genetically or how difficult it was for something to become a species instinct. I mean horses know how to stand up and walk right after being born. Humans take at least a year. What if we could introduce practical pieces of knowledge like understanding or even speaking language into our offspring. Recognition of family members' voices and faces?
