CONSCIOUSNESS IN THE CELL
CAN THE POWER BEHIND A CELL'S CONSCIOUS
ACTIONS BELONG TO A HORMONE UNAWARE
OF ITS OWN EXISTENCE?
The human body's 100 trillion cells carry out their duties fault-
lessly thanks to the thyroid hormones.
The more thyroid hormone in the blood, the faster the cells will
work. If the body does not secrete enough thyroid, metabolism
slows down considerably and virtually comes to a stop. For this
reason, there must be a certain level of thyroid hormone in the
blood at all times.
It's impossible for the thyroid gland to take up the duty of
affecting other cells and to make such decisions on its own. It is
unaware of other cells' existence. It only obeys to the letter the
commands present in the DNA of its own cells.
The power that gives these written commands to the thyroid
gland and brings them about is God, the One Who created every
tiny detail. The plan, design and consciousness at work here does
not belong to an unconscious piece of flesh, a gland unaware of its
own existence that goes by the name of "thyroid." It belongs to
God.
Evolutionists, however, in denial of this, claim that:
- the thyroid gland "feels the need" to stimulate all of the body's
cells, and therefore has designed hormones that would affect all
cells;
- it has perfectly produced these hormones all by itself, and
- decides by itself the level of hormone that needs to be in the
blood at all times.
This is nothing but conjecture, of course. It's in no way possible
for an endocrine gland to have the knowledge to think of any of
