Then how can it be that
DNA, which is composed
of the arrangement of a
certain number of unwise
and unconscious atoms in
certain sequences, and
enzymes, working in a har-
monious way, is able to achieve
much work and organise countless
complicated and diverse operations
in the cell in a perfect and complete
manner? The answer to this is
very simple; wisdom is not in
these molecules or in the cell that
contains them, but in the self who
has brought these molecules into
being, programming them to function as
they do.
Shortly put, wisdom is present not in the work done, but in the creator of
that work. Even the most developed computer is the product of a wisdom and
intellect that has written and installed the programs to operate it, and then used
it. Likewise, the cell, DNA and RNAs in it, and the human being made up of
these cells are nothing but the works of the One Who created them as well as
what they do. No matter how perfect, complete and striking the work is, the
wisdom always lies with the owner of the work.
One day, if you found a diskette on the table in the computer laboratory, and
after looking inside, discovered that it contains billions of items of information
about you, the first question that would come to your mind would be who has
written these pieces of information and why.
So, why don't we ask the same question for the cell? If the information in the
diskette was written by someone, then by whom DNA, which has a much more
superior and advanced technology, is designed in the most perfect manner, cre-
