DAVID: Cells handle their daily activities very well with a 3.7 million year old history of life. See today's entry on DNA/RNA speed of action. > > dhw: Is there a consensus among biochemists that God installed a computer programme in all of them? If God gave them the intelligence to handle their daily activities, you would also be able to say they handled their daily activities with a 3.7 billion year history of life!-Of course there is no consensus. They have implanted intelligent information. > > David's comment re DNA/RNA: The complexity of living biochemistry seen in action demands the conclusion it was developed by an active mind. No chance process can possibly do this. > > dhw: I agree. Once intelligence exists, there seems to be an inevitable progression to ever increasing complexity (your own term), resulting in all the improvements we see from the simple cell to the human brain. But where did the first intelligence spring from? That is the great question to which we have no answer.-My answer is an eternal mind, God. Again you want a proven answer.
