Well the condensed version goes like this, The sponge is well known for co-existing with a very large number of other organisms including bacteria from 16 different phylums, nearly 700 species of fungi, algae, diatoms, flies, crustaceans, dinoflagalents, and a great many others. Science is unable to explain much of what they find regarding the relationships that the sponge has with these other organisms. In addition to these facts the sponge is also known to possess one of the largest and most complex genomes of all animals, it's genome contains genes from all domains of life including a nearly complete set of genes for a human nervous system as well as genes for eyes and many other genes typically found only in vertebrates. With these facts as supporting evidence I am suggesting that the sponge not only co-exists with these other organisms but it is also responsible for producing them. To sum it up I am claiming that the sponge has the ability to copy the genetic code of other organisms through cell to cell contact, to store that genetic code within it's genome, and the ability to then translate that genetic code allowing it to produce replicas or imitations of whatever it has come in contact with over the course of the past 700 million years or so. Given these abilities the sponge has been able to go undetected as a parasite in a wide array of organisms including humans. I believe it has plagued human beings for centuries and is likely responsible for much of what ails us including autoimmune diseases, cancer, and morgellons just to name a few. This is a very, very long story condensed to it's smallest possible form, there is literally an overwhelming amount of evidence to support this claim.
