Thank you for your patience and for taking the time to explain your
beliefs. Here are some
excerpts that might help.

Taken from the book DNA AND CELLS
THE DNA MOLECULE

DNA provides the basic codes that each plant and animal is made. The
evolutionists' problem
is the fact that DNA
(deoxyribonucleic acid) has such complicated codes and locks each type
of creature into its
own pattern. Because of this, it
would be impossible for evolution (which is the origin of species and
change across species)
to occur.

Inside every cell in your body is a microscopic ball. Inside it is a
coiled six-foot strip
of code! It is your DNA code, the primary
code for your entire body. The whole thing is amazing.

In the center of each cell is a nucleus, and, among the complicated
things in it, are 23
pairs of chromosomes. These are the
strips, and on them are genes. They are like beads on a chain. Each gene
has a large number
of DNA units. There are about 60
thousand billion (60,000 x 1,000,000,000) cells in your body! Each one
has your complete
code. This code fixes your physical
characteristics; it is your gene pool. All the data in each code set is
equivalent to an
unabridged dictionary.

It is clear that only a super mind could make all this! God made you;
you did not make
yourself. Seawater did not slosh around
and do it.—pp. 11-14.

Translation package needed. Not only was that astounding DNA code needed
in your body for it
to exist, but a translation
code had to be there also!

Termed an "adapter function," this machinery had to be in your body—the
first instant it
came into being. Yet it could not be
produced by accident.

No scientist can begin to explain how your body obtained the translation
package, much less
the DNA code.—pp. 14-15.

Messenger RNA. Not only is the DNA code and code translator needed, but
also messenger
units.

These are called "messenger RNA" molecules, or "s-RNA."

There is a specific s-RNA for each individual amino acid. They pass the
message for the
code, so that a certain type of amino
acid can be made.

So you are a living computer and did not know it. Throughout the body
and in each cell, we
find the most advanced scientific
technology and apparatus. Just as the "byte" is the basic eight-unit
binary pattern in
computers, the "codon" is the basic
three-nucleotide pattern in living creatures.—p. 15.

The biological compiler. Then there is the "t-DNA," This element carries
out the code tasks.
Without it, the code would be
useless.—pp. 15-16.

DNA indexing. Every computer requires a data bank, so the information
can be accessed. The
DNA contains the data bank,
but "indexes" are needed in order to find it. These are different than
the translators. They
are non-DNA chemicals which
function to locate specifically needed information.

The production of materials by DNA is triggered by these indexes. Their
presence, in turn,
initiates further indexing as new
materials are made. Additional indexes are to be found in specialized
functions, such as
nervous, muscular, hormonal,
circulatory, etc. The utter complexity of all this is astounding.—p. 16.

Cell switching. This function is needed to switch the DNA codes from one
process to another.
The signal to do it is provided
by other functions, but the actual switch is called the "cell
switch."—p. 16.

An exact fit required. Every aspect of the DNA function must be perfect.
The polynucleotide
strands have to be formed in
exactly the shape needed to neatly wrap about the DNA helix molecule.
There must be a 100
percent fit.

Scientists, working in million-dollar laboratories, are unable to
accurately synthesize the
polynucleotides or make them in
predetermined sizes and shapes.—p. 16.

Not randomness, but intelligence. It is obvious that nothing about this
is random.
Everything reveals highly intelligent
designing and production. Obviously, a tiny cell cannot be that smart.
Who keeps it running
right? Who designed it in the
beginning? Surely, it did not come together by chance.—pp. 16-17.

Multi-gene characteristics. Did you know that each characteristic in a
living creature is
controlled by several different genes?
This only makes the process all the more complicated.

There would be no way the DNA code could gradually "evolve." Everything
had to be there from
the beginning.—p. 17.

MATHEMATICAL POSSIBILITIES

Math looks at DNA. DNA is not the result of an accident. The
mathematical possibilities that
all this intertwining of codes and
processors could come together by accident—is totally impossible. That
is what the experts
tell us.

For example, we are told that the information content of the gene in its
complexity must be
as great as the enzyme it controls.
Yet just one medium-sized protein will consist of about 300 amino acids!
That protein was
made by a DNA gene, which would
have to have about 1,000 nucleotides in its chain. Since there are four
kinds of nucleotides
in a single DNA chain, one with
1,000 links could exist in 41000 different forms. —That is 4 followed by
a thousand zeros!

Yet all this complexity is required to make the simplest living
creature.

Everything had to be in place at once from the beginning. Whether it be
a one-celled or a
multi-celled creature, all the cellular
functions had to be there from the start.—pp. 17-18.
