session of the special connecting nodules that bind them
together. When sponge cells approach one another,
these connecting nodules grip one another and an or-
ganized, multicellular appearance emerges. In
short, sponge cells were designed to work to-
gether. When they are all together, they immedi-
ately acquire a nature of their own and assume
the duties regarding the particular layer they
are in. With the enzymes they produce and
their chemical digestion methods, sponge
cells are actually very complex.
This organization does not come about
with their knowledge. Cells have no
brain, nervous system, or consciousness.
That is why there can be no question of
"cells' inventing a language of communi-
cation amongst themselves." The state-
ment in the film that "the cells somehow
invented a language by which they could
work together" is as nonsensical and un-
realistic as saying, "the paints somehow
found a language between themselves and
produced the Mona Lisa." Like all other
paintings in the world, the Mona Lisa was
created by a conscious artist. Life was cre-
ated in the same conscious manner.
The sponge cells take their shape, charac-
teristics, and function from the design de-
scribed in the DNA sequence placed within
them. It is impossible for them to invent anything
new or to write any information in that DNA to
allow them to acquire a new function. Thus, not even
the existence of the sponge, described as "the simplest
animal organization" by evolutionists, can be accounted
