ganize themselves with the energy from the wind in such a way as to
form a perfect outline of a human being on the floor. In short, complex
organized systems can never come into being through natural process-
es. Although, simple arrangements like that cited above may occur
from time to time, they can never progress beyond specific bounds.
Evolutionists, however, depict these spontaneous self-ordering
phenomena by means of natural events as important evidence for evo-
lution. They seek to portray them as supposed examples of self-organ-
ization. As a result of this conceptual confusion, they suggest that liv-
ing beings can arise spontaneously as a result of natural events and
chemical reactions. Yet as you saw earlier, organized systems and ordered
systems display completely different structures. Ordered systems con-
tain simple sequences and repetitions, while organized systems contain
highly complex, interconnected structures and processes.
The difference between the two is best described by the evolution-
ist scientist Jeffrey Wicken:
'Organized' systems are to be carefully distinguished from 'ordered' sys-
tems. Neither kind of system is 'random,' but whereas ordered systems
are generated according to simple algorithms and therefore lack complex-
ity, organized systems must be assembled element by element according
to an external 'wiring diagram' with a high information content. . . .
Organization, then, is functional complexity and carries information. 220
The dilemmas facing any self-ordering scenario can easily be seen
when the structure of the DNA molecule is examined. Studies in bio-
chemistry and molecular biology cannot explain the special arrange-
ment of the DNA and RNA macro-molecules that contain such broad
information. Robert Shapiro-a professor of chemistry of University of
New York and an expert on DNA-sets out the evolutionist belief in the
self-organization of matter and the materialist dogma underlying it:
Another evolutionary principle is therefore needed to take us across the
gap from mixtures of simple natural chemicals to the first effective repli-
