Real-time Observation Of DNA-repair Mechanism

25 May 2008

 Last year I had a problem with my car, it would not start. It required hours of investigation, testing, and disassembly to determine what the problem was. Everything else on the car was working fine. It had air, spark, and fuel; however, it also had 4 valves that were slightly bent. All these valves are is simple pieces of metal that move up and down in sync with all the other parts of the engine, but without them seating properly the entire car stopped functioning.

 A car is a complex machine that has been build for a purpose. Typically it is used to drive to work, go to the store, or go on vacation. You would be lacking of intelligence to say that a car is not designed because it is obvious what its purpose is. Inside every cell in your body is billions of lines of code. This code tells your cells, what they are, how they should function, how to reproduce, and how to repair the cell. This code also contains the information on how to repair itself.

 It has now been observed in real time how a damaged line of DNA knows enough about itself to repair its own problems. When is GM coming out with a car that is able to change its own oil, rotate its own tires, and rebuild its own engine.

 Creation proves a creator, design proves a designer. Using poor design as an argument against design would be like saying the people at GM are ignorant because the timing chain they designed slipped after 150,000 miles.
