166 THE MIRACLE OF PROTEIN

V-ATPase can be divided into two parts only by the con-
trol molecules responsible and can be rejoined only by them.
This way, the acidity of the environment is kept under control
to ensure the persistence of the cell. The fact that proteins func-
tion like assembly experts is another marvelous fact of creation.

Fascinating things take place inside of the cell. Some envi-
ronmental conditions have harmful effects on life. In our daily
lives, we often see examples of this phenomena. For instance, if
we leave a piece of meat outside of the fridge, it will become
tainted. Once you pick up a fruit from its tree, it will rot after a

short while. In other words, it is impossible for the systems of
the cell to be built in the external environment. However, the
situation is quite the opposite in the cell. Not only is the exist-
ing order preserved, but there is also constant organization and
construction. Appearing inanimate outside the cell, these mol-

ecules begin to carry out their duties once inside the cell. This
is a clear evidence of creation, and shows that there is no room
for chance, neither in the past nor now.
The truth is, even inside the cell, conditions exist that
could be detrimental to the existing order any moment; howev-
er, hundreds of molecular complexes work together to preserve

the order and maintain life.
Evolutionist scientist Kunihiko Kaneko had to admit the
surprising aspects of this harmful environment: “It looks mirac-
ulous that such high numbers of processes that involve such a

high variety of molecules always result in the same macroscopic
shapes. This can be compared to people trying to build a certain
shape using irregularly shaped blocks during a violent earth-
quake.” 77
When viewed from the outside, the cell looks like a very
complex, very crowded place with tens of billions of molecules
