THE INFORMATION IN THE HELIX
C The DNA molecule comprises millions of base
pairs organized in a helical shape. If a DNA

T molecule in only one of our cells were unfolded, it
would make a one-metre long chain. This chain,
squeezed into the cell nucleus, is only as big as a
alphabet with A hundred thousandth of a millimeter with an
amazing "packaging" system.

four "letters".
However, they still embrace the
"chance" hypothesis simply for the
sake of keeping the theory alive. A well-known molecular
biologist from Australia, Michael Denton, explains this in his book
Evolution: A Theory in Crisis:
To the skeptic, the proposition that the genetic programmes of higher
organisms, consisting of something close to a thousand million bits of
information, equivalent to the sequence of letters in a small library of
one thousand volumes, containing in encoded form countless
thousands of intricate algorithms controlling, specifying, and
ordering the growth and development of billions and billions of
cells into the form of a complex organism, were composed by a
purely random process is simply an affront to reason. But to the
Darwinist, the idea is accepted without a
ripple of doubt - the paradigm takes
precedence! 11
