3. DNA manufactures the protein-synthesizing enzymes. Pro-
tein cannot be synthesized without DNA. DNA is therefore also
needed in order for proteins to form.
4. All the organelles in the cell have important tasks in protein
synthesis. In other words, in order for proteins to form a perfect and
fully functioning cell needs to exist together with all its organelles.
The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of a cell and
which stores genetic information, is a magnificent databank. If the in-
formation coded in DNA were written down, it would make a giant
library consisting of an estimated 900 volumes of encyclopedias con-
sisting of 500 pages each.
A very interesting dilemma emerges at this point: DNA can repli-
cate itself only with the help of some specialized proteins (enzymes).
However, the synthesis of these enzymes can be realized only by the
information coded in DNA. As they both depend on each other, they
have to exist at the same time for replication. This brings the scenario
that life originated by itself to a deadlock. Prof. Leslie Orgel, an evo-
lutionist of repute from the University of San Diego, California, con-
fesses this fact in the September 1994 issue of the Scientific American
magazine:
It is extremely improbable that proteins and nucleic acids, both of
which are structurally complex, arose spontaneously in the same
place at the same time. Yet it also seems impossible to have one
without the other. And so, at first glance, one might have to conclude
that life could never, in fact, have originated by chemical means. 10
No doubt, if it is impossible for life to have originated sponta-
neously as a result of blind coincidences, then it has to be accepted
that life was "created." This fact explicitly invalidates the theory of
evolution, whose main purpose is to deny Creation.
