The foundations of scientific materialism are in the process of crumbling. Philosopher of scienceStephen C. Meyer shows how the digital code in DNA points powerfully to a designing intelligence behind the origin of life. DNA By Design presents a radical and comprehensive new case, revealing evidence not merely of individual features of biological complexity but rather of a fundamental constituent of the universe: information.

@mexicandruglord "your first attempt about viruses not having DNA was false." YOUR WORDS! Meyer the liar is not competent to comment in this field--the Prokariotes he left out have very different internal functions from those which Meyer the liar describes. Then, because he doesn't understand, it is not surprising. FYI, Prokariotes are one of the largest groups of life forms on Earth. And of course, most RNA viruses do not function like Eukariotes either.Same for Archaea, which Myer forgot too.

@TheLizardPeople Get a grip man, you're sounding insane. Not all viruses have DNA, I said "some". Get over that trial it was in 2005 - we are living in 2011 soon to be 2012 and guess what? Science progresses!
Let me guess, you're a YT biologist?

@mexicandruglord 1] ALL viruses have RNA;others,listed, have ONLY RNA.2]false 3] false again see Kitzmiller vs. Dover 4]It is a false analogy 5] see 1 and 2--there are cells that have no proteins. 6] He ignores the role of chemistry altogether. Meyer the liar is NOT a Biologist, a Biochemist, a Zoologist, a Crytptozoologist or anything esle but a statistician, and he has it completely wrong. ID has been defined as religion under US federal law, and admitted so by the originator of the concept.

@TheLizardPeople 1) You were wrong as I explained to you that some viruses have DNA and RNA. 2) You're wrong. 3) wrong again, you should try and support your argument with substance. 4) This is an analogy - get over it. 5) You're wrong once again. Please produce substance here. 6) And wrong once again. If you're referring to tertiary proteins or quaternary proteins then say so because you're sounding like a drunk.
He hasn't said anything of false projection.

BTW, Lenteviruses have no DNA; polioviruses have no DNA, nor do rotaviruses,Bymoviruses, comoviruses, nepoviruses, nodaviruses, picornaviruses, potyviruses, sobemoviruses and a subset of luteoviruses. Also Carmoviruses, dianthoviruses, flaviviruses, pestiviruses, tombusviruses, single-stranded RNA bacteriophages, hepatitis C virus and a subset of luteoviruses . And Alphaviruses, carlaviruses, furoviruses,and hepatitis E virus. Shall I go on, or is that enough to demonstrate? Meyer is a fraud..

@mexicandruglord 1) His description of cells is false, as noted 2) His description of the role of DNA in cells is incorrect.3) His assumptions about intelligent design are false and he also lies. 4) His assumption about DNA being digital are wrong--it isn't digital, or binary for that matter. 5) His assumptions about proteins and their roles are incorrect. 6) His claims about the role of protein shape and function are incorrect--he ignores the role of chemistry altogether, not surprisingly.

@TheLizardPeople So what are you disagreeing with? It seems as though you just don't like him and because of your dislike of him, you're hand waving and crying? Maybe you could actually cite what it is, that's upsetting you because your first attempt about viruses bot having DNA was false.
Try again :)

@mexicandruglord Meyer's claims include neither prokariotes or viruses--his entire assertion fails, as does yours. Meyer is a fraud and incompetent, a poor scientist whose forte is statistical manipulation of data. perhaps he thinks he can manipulate his all listeners as easily as you were. He can't.

@TheLizardPeople Most viruses have either RNA or DNA bound in a basic protein membrane.
I guess your whole assertion fails. Sorry
