“Morphic” is only part of the full word “Polymorphic”, which means many or multiple shapes. So polymorphic resonance would indicate not one idea, but many. And this is another junk science theory anyway. Proof is that you have editorial ‘toonists like that guy who draws that stupid duck. He would be mightily annoyed to be called a leftist. And what’s a ‘leftist’ now that the BLOTUS is besties with Putin?
“Morphic Resonance” is a quasi or pseudo scientific idea concerning morphogentics and the spread of traits via a non-local non-energetic field. Like the tit, one learns how to open up milk bottles then others start, even ones that never meet or see the initial act. It also is supposed to work for biological traits. That there will be the concept of “cat” or “spider” in other biologies. That the morphogenetics affect the DNA so that the DNA functions as “antenna” for these hypothetical “fields”. Look up Dr. Rupert Sheldrake on it. He is a legitimate scientist, but his concepts are not considered legitimate science.
“morphogenetic fields.” This gives him a conceptual framework wherein information is transmitted mysteriously and miraculously through any amount of space and time without loss of energy, and presumably without loss or change of content through something like mutation in DNA replication. Thus, room is made for psychical as well as physical transmission of information. Thus,
_ it is not at all necessary for us to assume that the physical characteristics of organisms are contained inside the genes, which may in fact be analogous to transistors tuned in to the proper frequencies for translating invisible information into visible form. Thus, morphogenetic fields are located invisibly in and around organisms, and may account for such hitherto unexplainable phenomena as the regeneration of severed limbs by worms and salamanders, phantom limbs, the holographic properties of memory, telepathy, and the increasing ease with which new skills are learned as greater quantities of a population acquire them._

I wish I had morphic resonance for algebra in high school.

Perhaps he’s thinking that all his Candorville readers will go there first and then read this.

So … most comic strips are leftist because of this so-called morphic resonance??

Haha! I think he “overheard” it somewhere!
