Hey brothers and sisters, I am a Clinical Trial Assistant by trade and schooled in Lab Biomedical Technique. I have one instance I would like to share with you that absolutely proves random chemical coincidence is not the answer to living things. Interestingly this is not one you will find on most apologetic websites and for the life of me I cannot figure out why. A chemist friend Aaron Huang told me it is probably because the instance is so insignificant to most people. They just see protein folding as a process in macro terms and do not really pick apart what happens on the micro level though it is commonly known (Aaron, born and educated in China, became interested in Intelligent Design some years ago, and now, after a number of years, he has begun attending church with his family
Hallelujah!)
This aspect of protein folding is called sulfide bonding and refers to di-sulfide bonds which determine the folding that occurs which determines the function of the protein produced. This is very significant in animal biology.
First I will describe what happens and how they bond, and then point out the significance of this as a refutation for a random chemical coincidental explanation. I will describe this process in lay terms so any not of a science background can understand what I saying. For those interested you can find more at Wiki under Protein Folding or if you care to go deeper, you can hear it in a lecture at:

to learn of the importance of the process in forming polypeptide chains (if it spurs your interest)
Here we go
Since every protein (every organ, every function, every vessel, every hormone, etc.,) in your body is dependent on what happens in this process I thought you might find it important. When polypeptide chains fold to their three dimensional structure they do this because certain sulfide molecules bond with other sulfide molecules. The combinations of bonded sulfides determine the shape thus the function.
What we found is that when by chemical process we unfold these proteins and allow then to re-bond, even if the string has 100 sulfides the only the exact same sulfides re-bond with their component sufildes. However there is absolutely no reason scientifically that these mindless allegedly planless, designless sulfides should only bond with those same specific ones in the presence of such variety and opportunity. Even if and when we try and force and alternative bonding they just will not and immediately revert to their original site.
The bonding (called covalent bonding where two molecules share their valence electrons) is natural when two elements which bond this way come into contact so when we try and force alternative di-sulfide bonds they should automatically covalently bond but they will not. No matter if we repeat the unfolding and allowance process 100 times in a row they will bond only with the same other sulfide over and over.
If chemical random coincidence were the rule they would randomly bond each time. If true sometimes they would bond randomly different occasionally (maybe even one in a thousand) but they do not. There is clearly an irresistible intention in the resultant fold, shape, and function.
Any thoughts?
