It has become quite evident that Charles Darwin did not explain the origins of life very well. He did a great job of portraying minor variations of natural selection and in many cases he is correct. But his endeavor to convince man that all appearances of a great design can be explained via natural selection is falling apart. The evolving world from its environment is a far cry from the fundamental innovations to the beginning of life.
There have been many great minds in the field of evolution and how things have transformed, but so far any evo explanations of the origins of life are insufficient and limiting as even evolutionists are stuck on the idea of where the genetic information of DNA came from.
Darwin became public with his discoveries on the Origin of Species in the 1850’s. he formed a valid idea of species changing due to their environment. However, the discovery of DNA had not come about until 100 years later in the 1950’s.
For us to now understand how the specified information and complexity of DNA and RNA form the basis of each cell, it seems to me an incredible leap of faith to continue believing that nothing created everything through natural selection.
If you ask most people today, they will say there is no science in the idea of a design or of a God, and apparently there “is” science behind the idea of evolution. I’m yet to see or understand the science of evolution but even without scientific studies, you know as well as I do that you build, you design, you create stuff every single day. So the idea of a design is not that far-fetched. Yet the idea of even 1 protein creating itself by chance is said to be so far beyond impossible it’s hard for an intelligent mind to grasp.
Francis Crick a co-discoverer of the DNA helix, estimated that the chance of even one protein creating itself is 1 in 10 to the pwr of 164. To understand the magnitude of this number, an example is given in the idea of rolling two dice and getting double 6’s 150,000 times in a row. Another example is being blindfolded and picking out the correct particle amongst all particles in the known universe times 2. Many mathematicians accept that 1 in 10 to the 50th power is an impossibility. There are hundreds of different functioning proteins in one cell and hundreds of trillions of cells that perform different functions in the human body.
When you start to think how the hundreds of base pairs perfectly ordered in a double DNA Helix transcribe into hundreds of RNA base pairs that organize the hundreds of amino acids in a specific sequence to create a specific protein to function in a specific way your mind boggles.
But let’s say nothing is impossible, especially with unlimited time. If by some chance that 1 protein created itself at the same time hundreds of other proteins created their selves in the same location to be close enough to form a simple cell. That action would need to have been known ahead of time somehow because the cell would need to know how to eat, digest, excrete and replicate itself in its short lifespan. Otherwise, It may take another quadrillion years to get another go.
Now the theory of evolution is that it took very small steps in conjunction with chance. Granted that this allows a better chance that chance had its way. Although there are many arguments about this still being an impossible process even tho it was slowly creeping along like a mountain building itself. Lets have a look at what natural selection or stuff happening by itself has created.
We don’t live in a gray mush puddle of chemical soup that has no idea of beauty. Everything that has made itself somehow is magnificent. From the stars at night to the sun sets and rises in the day. The blue oceans that we sit and look at all day to individual families with birds, animals, humans, my wife and daughter, consciousness and emotions. The flowers of the field that have no other reason than to portray beauty or the trees that still care enough to keep us alive. Im confused how we look at this thing and laugh at people who believe in a God.
Romans 1:20; For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature. So they are without excuse.
I could be off in my understanding of science, but still, why is the idea of this post being created and designed by a higher intelligence less believable than the letters rearranging themselves overtime to make something understandable? Is not one cell that knew ahead of its existence it was going to be apart of your eye much more complex.
