                   smallest element of which—a
                   functional protein or gene—
                   is complex beyond our
                   creative capacities, a re-
                   ality which is the very
                   antithesis of chance,
                   which excels in every
                   sense anything produced
                   by the intelligence of
                   man? 25
                   As Denton suggests, this
              mechanism "is the very antithesis of chance"; so then why
              do evolutionists insist it is the result of happenstance? When such a flaw-
