ETERNITY HAS ALREADY BEGUN

One of the facts nullifying
the theory of evolution is
the incredibly complex struc-
ture of life. The DNA molecule
located in the nucleus of cells of
living beings is an example of this.
The DNA is a sort of databank formed of
the arrangement of four different molecules
in different sequences. This databank contains the
codes of all the physical traits of that living being.
When the human DNA is put into writing, it is calculat-
ed that this would result in an encyclopedia made up
of 900 volumes. Unquestionably, such extraordinary in-
formation definitively refutes the concept of coinci-

frey Bada, from the San Diego Scripps Institute accepts
this fact in an article published in Earth magazine in 1998:
Today as we leave the twentieth century, we still face the biggest un-
solved problem that we had when we entered the twentieth centu-
ry: How did life originate on Earth? 22

The Complex Structure of Life

The primary reason why the theory of evolution ended up in
such a great impasse regarding the origin of life is that even those
living organisms deemed to be the simplest have incredibly com-
plex structures. The cell of a living thing is more complex than all of
our man-made technological products. Today, even in the most de-
veloped laboratories of the world, a living cell cannot be produced
by bringing organic chemicals together.
The conditions required for the formation of a cell are too great
in quantity to be explained away by coincidences. The probability
of proteins, the building blocks of a cell, being synthesized coin-
cidentally, is 1 in 10 for an average protein made up of 500 amino
950
acids. In mathematics, a probability smaller than 1 over 10 is con-
50
sidered to be impossible in practical terms.
