> >  > dhw:It does not alter the fact that 90% of professional scientists working in your field do not endorse your interpretation of the science, and I wonder if even the other 10% would do so.-But they would agree with my automaton interpretation through biochemical reactions.- > dhw:Your point is not their point. They are not talking about the messages as a series of reactions. They are talking about how cells code and send messages. -You would have to read the science itself to understand that they really are talking about biochemical reactions. No one yet understands how DNA controls this. >  > dhw: And similarly no-one understands how cells are able to code and send the messages that enable them to cooperate with one another.-I agree, but we recognize that is is chemical signalling. >  > dhw: Nor do we learn anything from statements such as "[i]Cells do not of their own volition cooperate[/i]." This is opinion masquerading as scientific fact,-No masquerade. Of course cells are not independent. They operate exactly according to DNA plans, which we as yet do not fully understand. You again sound as if you are giving cells thoughts and minds. ->  > dhw: And you are entitled to your opinion, but I&apos;m happy to see your "other hand" as a promising sign of agnostic tolerance!-No I more than tolerate your right to agnosticism. What bothers me is your invention of an impossible theory to protect your on-the-fence position.
