n the previous pages we looked at many
amazing, even miraculous events that
occur inside living cells. Every one
revealed that just even one single cell or
one protein possesses a highly complex,
planned structure. It's not possible for either of
them to have formed as a result of coincidence, as evolutionists claim.
Coincidence can only result in chaos, disruption, disorder, error and
freaks of nature. The magnificent harmony, order, balance, success
and aesthetic nature of the cell and other living things show that they
are all the product of a knowledgeable and faultless creation.
In short, what we've examined brings the theory of evolution to
its knees, unarguably, and proves that the "origin of species" came
about through creation.
Yet there is more to this truth than we explained before.
If the cell or any other stage of life were immobile or constant,
then we would not be able to advance any further than the point made
above. However, when we examine all of the different components of
cells-DNA, ribosomes, mitochondria, viruses, enzymes and hor-
mones-they are all highly active and carry out amazing processes very
successfully. They seem to possess what we would describe as inten-
tion and intelligence, that is, the abilities to think, analyze and make
decisions. What's more, this intelligence is much more fascinating
than that attributed to human beings. Just the organelle of a cell dur-
ing protein synthesis displays a level of intelligence that human
beings will not easily reach.
But it's not logical to say that this intelligence is actually a prop-
erty of the cell itself, because the components of the cell that display
such apparent knowledge are nothing more than a group of mole-
cules. Given the acts they carry out, they should all be able to think in
