Perry Marshall explains in clear terms that DNA is clearly designed. It is necessary to suspend your beliefs and approach this subject with open minded skeptism and allow the "information" to come into your mind. You will see that there really is no other explanation. All life was designed.

The question then changes to who designed it? It's a legitimate question that we simply can't answer. But what we can say is that life does have a purpose since we were designed. For more information please visit Perry Marshall's website at

  • quick question do you believe in jesus as your lord and savior.

  • so when do we actually find out anything on this whole "mind vs brain" relationship in cognitive and neuro science?

  • Clever attempt in sneek in christianity into people's life but it won't work. Intelligent Design theory is not intelligent and unsupported by scientific facts.

  • Unconscious influences change the brian as well, a result of sensory enviroment (consider blindness or deafness). It's just growth or loss related to use, similar to that associated with muscle.

    The analogy is poor. The brain is not a computer, but a collection of neurons linked by usage.

  • Its likely to arise from areas in association. Of course, if you removed parts of the brain associated with speech and being awake, and decision making, and sensory awareness, and memory, you wouldn't have much left but clinical unconsciousness.

    And if it resided outside the brain, we would need to show how it interacts with the brain, and doesnt interfere with the peripheral neurons, or other parts of the brain. You would actually expect to find a point where self originates.

  • Besides, conscious choice can change the brain itself. Meditation has been shown in scientific studies to increase the centers of the brain that relate to wisdom and cognition. So then you end up with this weird thing like, "how can a product of the brain actually make a choice to change it's source?" Much like the software on your computer can not run a program to make your hard drive physically bigger, but consciousness CAN do that.

  • It depends on what your definition of consciousness is, my definition is very deliberate and is noticeable in all living things. Now as far as finding the "I am" in the brain which seems to be what you are referring to has not been defined to any particular location of the brain. In fact people have had an entire hemisphere removed, and still retained the "I am." Now does the brain affect consciousnes, sure. But we have not been able to pin point it down to a product of the brain.

  • Consciousness does not appear to be universal in life. We must be careful not to make conscious experience into something un-testable to say that its just a feeling that you are. Conscious perceptions of where we are, who we are and what we are doing are tractable in the brain, and alterable by changes to the brain (including chemical changes). If they take place outside the brain, where is the encoder, transmission system and decoder for them?

  • The thing about complexity is that it is built from parts, each simple. It's nether here or there in showing intelligence. Wondrous, for sure, but Ive seen wonder and complexity in things that are quite inert. It is still wondrous that our genes are very likely to be traces of uncountable successful recreations.

  • And it is this organization that doesn't happen in fire or water that leads many people to believe that an outside influence directed the process.

    Personally I don't believe that things just went "poof" into existance, but I can't rule that out either. I think many of these questions will be answered once we discover what consciousness is. . .which is the one thing that science has failed to explain why we and living things, have it.
