                  For example, scientists can make a zebra fish emit light by im-
             planting a luminous jellyfish gene into it, or to bring about the produc-
             tion of spider silk in goat's milk by implanting spider DNA into a goat.

             But even though the resulting life forms may appear to possess various
             new characteristics, no new genetic information has been created; all
             that has happened is that existing information has changed places
             among living species.
                  Even if scientists one day manage to radically restructure a living
             creature, this will still apply. The molecular biologist Michael Denton
             expresses this fact:
                  In the future, if genetic engineers are ever able to radi-
                  cally redesign living systems from pro-
                  teins to whole organisms, this will only
                  be via intelligently directed changes
                  which will almost certainly necessi-
                  tate programmed simultaneous
                  change in many of the basic subsys-
                  tems. 131

                  In conclusion, evolutionist
             statements about genetic engineer-
             ing are invalid. On the contrary,
             research in this field with its
             planned and controlled en-
             vironments and deliber-
             ate changes, reveals
             that living things
             have been created
             with a perfect or-
             ganization.
