The Com plex i ty of the Cell

                                                       Thanks to its selective permeability, the mem-

         body is recorded as a
         complex code in the

                                 the cell.
          The cell is the most complex and most elegant system man has ever witnessed. Professor of bi-
          ology Michael Denton, in his book entitled Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, explains this complexity
          with an example:
            "To grasp the reality of life as it has been revealed by molecular biology, we must magnify a
           cell a thousand million times until it is twenty kilometers in diameter and resembles a giant air-
           ship large enough to cover a great city like London or New York. What we would then see would
           be an object of unparalelled complexity and a marvelous structure. On the surface of the cell we
           would see millions of openings, like port holes of a vast space ship, opening and closing to
           allow a continual stream of materials to flow in and out. If we were to enter one of these open-
           ings we would find ourselves in a world of supreme technology and bewildering complexity... (a
           complexity) beyond our own creative capacities, a reality which is the very antithesis of coinci-
           dence, which excels in every sense anything produced by the intelligence of man..."
