strate an ines cap a ble abil i ty to sur vive dur ing mate ri al assim -
i la tion, to be able to recog nize and dis tin guish the envi ron men -
tal fac tors on which they depend, to sur vive to the extent that
and for as long as they pos sess the abil i ty to learn and pos sess
these abil i ties, and the abil i ty to stay alive. They had to be able
to deter mine which of these envi ron men tal fac tors [for exam -
ple, ener gy pro vid ing large mol e cu les such as sugar and pro -
tein] are ben e fi cial for them and which are dan ger ous or harm -
ful, because these harm ful agents in ques tion have a "toxic"
effect that blocks and derails the cell's mate ri al assim i la tion

As you have seen, a cell can remain alive only so long
as it can dis tin guish between what is ben e fi cial and what
is harm ful to it. The above quo ta tion refers to abil i ties of
the cell such as selec tion, dif fer en ti a tion, dis tin guish ing,
learn ing and sort ing. Darwinists—who expect uncon -
scious cells to acquire by coin ci dence these actions that
require thought, rea son ing and aware ness—delib er ate ly
ignore this illog i cal posi tion. They imag ine that coin ci -
den ces will some how resolve all incon sist en cies. They
regard coin ci dence as a potent force that opens all doors,
over comes all dif fi cul ties and plans every thing right
down to the fin est detail. This is indeed a super sti tious
belief!
In the face of the supe ri or intel lect in the cell, many
issues leave Darwinists in a quan da ry. For exam ple, how
did coin ci den tal accu mu la tions of uncon scious atoms
bring into being a cell with exceed ing ly con scious proc -
ess es? Darwinists main tain that the cell emerged as a
result of chem i cal reac tions that took place of their own
