gens involved. On the contrary, AICDA enzyme makes the right
changes on the right genes –among 25.000 genes- on the exact
sequences that correspond to the antibody parts that contact the
antigen. This is clearly a very deliberate system designed to pro-
duce variety.

Clearly this system could not have come into being except
by design. Despite his being an evolutionist, California Univer-
sity Professor of Biology Christopher Wills states in The Wis-
dom of the Genes that the body's defense system raises one of the
most complex and controversial questions in the whole field of
biology. Humans have been the target of diseases for millions of
years, but we now know how our immune system defends us.

Even better, Willis explains we know that our immune system
can protect us even against the diseases we are yet to encounter.
To do this, the immune system uses immunoglobulins, which
are proteins, and able to bind to molecules they have never seen
before. Wills states that this state of affairs seems to drag scien-

tists into an area that they prefer to avoid when discussing evo-
lution. He goes on to ask how the immune system can foresee
the future and produce immunoglobulins capable of defending
against future attacks. 92
Darwinists are unable to answer this question. Looking at
the answers of evolutionists to questions such as, "How did an-

tibodies come about?" or "How did the immune system come
into being?" the only reply they can give is "By much time and a
lot of chance." Yet when they examine the defense system and
similar structures, Darwinists either avoid touching on the sub-
ject or else admit their bafflement. It would be blatantly illogical

to say "by chance" in answer to the question of how these sys-
tems came to be.
