- Information is a concept that is both abstract and mathematical. It lies at the foundation of both biology and physics. Information, the universal genetic code, is the software of life. Scientists are merging the hardware and software narratives into a new theory of life with sweeping ramifications from astrobiology to medicine.
- THE DARWIN RELIGION PRACTICED BY MOST OF THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY WILL SOON BE A DISGRACED MEMORY. THE CULT OF DARWINIAN BELIEF IS ABOUT TO COME UNDONE.
- The process of random selection did not produce molecular machines that can produce machine-like structures with multiple interacting parts. The entire cell can be viewed as a factory that contains an elaborate network of interlocking assembly lines, each of which is composed of a set of large protein machines. These protein assemblies include highly coordinated moving parts. A ribosome is a multi-part machine responsible for translating the genetic instructions during the accumulation of proteins. Bacterial cells may contain up to 100,000 ribosomes, and human cells may have millions. They are ingeniously designed for their functions.
- ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary energy-carrying molecule in all cells. In many organisms, it is generated by a protein-based molecular machine called ATP synthase. This machine is composed of two spinning rotary motors connected by an axle. Irreducibly complex structures cannot evolve in a step-by-step fashion because they do not function until all of their parts are present and working. Irreducibly complicated means that a single system comprises several interacting factors that contribute to the primary function. The removal of any one of the parts causes the system to cease functioning effectively. Randomness can’t do that.
- Merely having the necessary parts available is not enough to build a complex system because specific assembly instructions must be followed. Cells use complex assembly instructions in DNA to direct how components interact and combine to form molecular machines.
- An irreducibly complex molecular machine is the bacterial flagellum. The flagellum is a macro-molecular propeller assembly driven by a rotary engine. Irreducibly complex structures point to design because they contain high levels of specified complexity. Complex systems almost always require a specific order of assembly.
- Intelligent agents can generate new forms rapidly, as we see in the abrupt appearance of animals in the Cambrian fossil record.
- Intelligent agents can construct and modify complex integrated circuits that are necessary for animal development:
- Intelligent agents generate new digital information as we see in DNA.
- Intelligent agents can generate new structural (epigenetic) information and construct functionally integrated and hierarchically organized layers of information as we see in animal body plans.
