Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design

Stephen Meyer argues that our DNA provides evidence of an intelligent designer and helps explain how life began. He spoke at the Seattle Art Museum during an event hosted by the Discovery Institute.

@tjobv

Then you've debated very stupid atheists (or your lying). I'm an atheist and I believe in evolution, but they don't have anything to do with each other.

My atheism stems from a lack of evidence for god(s).

@wowamonn You are welcome!

@Entropy56 Thanks!

@wowamonn Your remark is irrelavent. Another YouTube drive-by... yawn...

@Entropy56 Facts hurt doesn't it? Amun-Ra Lives, Amen.

@Entropy56 No cut and paste moron. Simple research--it's a new thing.You might think of looking up Archaea and cyanobacteria...

[Entropy56]

@TheLizardPeople What is the source where you cut and pasted from? Or did you make this up all by yourself?

Thanks.

@Entropy56 Prokariotes are the earliest known cell forms, dating to more than 4 billion yrs ago. The simplest are very simple RNA [4 amino acids on a phosphate base] with a lipid exterior covering. These cyano archaea left fossil remnants called stromatolites. They had no nucleus, no organelles, no cell membranes, no DNA, and no proteins. HIV by contrast, has no nucleus, 3 RNA strands, no DNA, no organelles, but does have proteins in ribosomes.

@Galmozzi99 Unfortunately, Mycoplasma is not the simplest known cell, not by a long shot. It is the simplest MODERN Prokariote of its type. ID, a phony decive conceived by Phillip Johnson to circumvent Constitutional bans against creationism in schools, has no basis in fact. In Kitzmiller vs. Dover, this was illustrated when the judge designated ID to be religion without any basis in science.Science has always shown ID to be a fraud, as it is.

@TheLizardPeople Can you demonstrate how Prokaryotic cells came to exist? Thanks.
