standby, ready to function again in the future. Milk production, for ex-
ample, is accelerated by genes during suckling. The existing genetic in-

formation is acted upon at the appropriate time and place, at the appro-
priate level. Such consciously planned, deliberately calculated and ra-
tional use of the billions of pieces of information contained within DNA
can definitely not be explained by way of any evolutionist claims of
chance. To stubbornly regard chance as the cause of such extraordina-
rily planned and organized events, taking place in such a microscopi-
cally small space, is a completely contrary to logic.

Even evolutionists admit that they are far from being able to ac-
count for this differentiation and immaculate division of labor in cells.
The Turkish evolutionist and microbiologist Prof. Ali Demirsoy makes
this admission:
In essence, the way that several cell groups with very different structures
and functions comes into being from a fertilized egg has still not been sat-
isfactorily explained. 111

A National Geographic Society book, The Incredible Machine, refers
to scientists' inability to account for human creation:
Its 100 nonspecialized cells must somehow multiply into trillions of cells
that make up the most complex vertebrate on Earth--the human being.
The phenomenon of differentiation--how cells assume their different
forms--remains one of the most baffling questions of science. How are

DNA's orders issued to the cells? Is the story of life written once, in the
fertilized egg? Are its orders parceled out to offspring cells as it divides?.
. . Now there are new mysteries. Today we know that all cells are derived
from generalized cells, and each one contains the genetic code for the
whole body. But how does a cell, supplied with the voluminous script for
all of life, come to play its exact role in the development of a human?
How does a cell that could turn into anything turn into something? How
is a rod cell in the retina, for example, designated to obey only orders to
