Either we were made or we were not.
There is no point in-between.
The DNA code refers to mathematics and probability regarding evolution.
The theory of evolution proposes that all of the highly complex structures
and systems of the universe are due to the operation of purely natural and
haphazard processes of nature.
Diametrically opposed to this philosophy,biblical creationism maintains that
the innumerable,highly complex systems and intricate structures of the
universe offer exceptionally strong evidence of a creator.
The probability of getting hit by lightning is about 1 in 600,000.The
probability of winning the lottery is about 1 in 5.2 million.
The likelihood of just spelling the word evolution by randomly selecting
nine letters from the alphabet is only 1 in 26 to the 9 power or 1 in
5,429,503,679,000.
Twenty cards numbered 1 through 20 thoroughly shuffled and laid out in
numerical order from 1 to 20 is 1 in 2,432,902,008,176,640,000.
The probability of accidentally generating Genesis 1:1 is 1 chance in 26 to
the 44 power trials.
This is equivalent to 1 chance in 1.81479392 x 10 to the 62 power trials.
In other words,the chance of randomly producing Genesis 1:1 is 1 in
181,479,392,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
A simple system composed of only 200 integrated parts (simple compared with
living systems) is a 1 in 200 factorial, or 1 chance in
788,657,867'364,790,503,552,363,213,932,185,062,295,135,977,687,173,363,294,742,533,244,254,86,525,693,548,253,221,223,563,458,754,215,467,377,195,357,468,174,235,875,421,256,424,222,563,85
445,447,777,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
This colossal number can be written more simply as 10 to the 375 power.Thus
there is only one chance in 10 to the 375 power of selecting the proper
arrangement for a simple 200-part system on the first trial.
This renders a mathematically impossible even for the most elementary form
of life to have arisen by mere chance.
Life is no accident.It is not even something that brilliant scientists can
synthesize.The bewildering complexity of even the most basic organic
molecules completely rules out the chance of life originating apart from a
super intelligent designer.The most logical and reasonable conclusion that
can be reached based on mathematical analysis is that complex,ordered
systems,which so characterize the world,never happened by mere chance.
Great is our Lord, and of great power:his understanding is infinite.
(Ps. 147:5)
