A MIRACULOUS SYSTEM CREATED FOR A NEW LIFE

oning. It is not at all unusual for a person who has not had special training
in this field to be unaware of these things, but the fact that a group of mo-
lecules has this knowledge is incredible.
How do the hormones, seen below with their molecular structures,
come into being and be in possession of chemical information? How is it
that, not content just to know the chemistry of the body, each one, like a
chemist, uses the knowledge it possesses, applying it to the areas of the
body where it is required? How do they direct other cells to produce the
requisite hormones at the time they are required? How can this unconsci-
ous mass of molecules have the intelligence to do all these things? It is cle-
ar that the molecules called hormones cannot have this intelligence. It is
evident that all these processes could not come about by chance by any ot-

In the above illustration we see the molecular and crystallized structure of the prog-
esterone hormone (1), and below, we see the molecular and crystallized structure of
the oestrogen hormone (2). It is evident that these hormones, composed of a few
atoms, cannot, by their own will, plan the changes that take place in the human
body. It is Almighty God Who created them and gave them their wondrous functions.
