DNA, the hereditary material in all living cells that carries the information to duplicate itself.Every human being has their own unique DNA code. The code is made up of four chemical bases:
G- guanine
A-aenine
T-thymine
C-cytosine.
The order of the basis determines the information available for building and maitaining an organism. For example: The 24 letters of the alphabet can be rearrange to write everything ever written in English.
Basically what we are examining is information, the blueprint to make another similar organism. But it doesn't do that by itself. It is necessary for enzymes to exist, various types of proteins that drive the chemical reaction required for a particular action.
So the enzyme is the worker, taking it's orders from the information on the DNA and performs perfectly what is required of it.
Now, we have the info and the enzymes that read the info and do what it says. A question that I have and could not find an answer to was: How could the information and the workers evolve seperately from DNA but need each other to replicate life? How does it know to do that?
A piece of DNA that dictates a particular trait is called a gene.The amount of info in DNA is staggering, a DNA strand is only 10 atoms wide but if you stretched out the strands in your body it would be about 500 million miles long.This is all the information to build your bones,eyes,heart and every other part and function of your body.
One of the mysterious of science is how identical cells,with the same DNA, will divide to form your heart while others form the other body parts.
One theory is that there are switches that turn some genes on while turning some off. Where are these swithches? Until scientist find them, I will submit this as evidence of design.
You were conceived when an egg from your mother and a sperm cell from your father met to give you 23 chromozones from your mother and the same from your father. This have you your own genetic code. There has never been ,in all history, anyone like you.
If a problem occurs in the process, the new cells, if they survive ,can cause problems.These are called mutations. Here is a real smoking gun as far as I am concrned: Some mutations are beneficial. This is the basis of all evolution theory, a beneficial mutation that allows an organism to develope capabilities it's ancestor did not posses.
A mutation is a mistake, a G where it should have been a T. So how can a mistake in the blueprint lead to a benifit in the organism?Can a bunch of mistakesin DNA from the first One cell organism ,all the way to us ,be just mindless luck.
So, maybe all mutations are not mistakes but an improvement in the design.

A smoking gun!
Up til now, the evidence I presented can be contradicted by atheists as a series of lucky breaks, no matter how unlikely.But now I think I have found direct evidence of Intelligent Design.
In the last chapter we covered how the first elements ,hydrogen and helium, which are created in the belly of the first stars that formed from dust and gases, with the help of gravity.The heavier elements such as:carbon,nitrogen,oxygen,silicon,iron and many others are created from the tremendous heat and energy of a supernova.These are stars that blow up in cosmic explosions sending dust, gases made of hydrogen and helium across the universe.This stuff congregates with stuff from other supernovas forming new stars and now the heavier elements are formed. These elements formed the earth and us.In essence we are made of star stuff.
What a beautiful system and that evidence by itself could point to design.But it really gets weird when we look inside the world of atoms that are the building blocks of the elements ,which are the building blocks of everything we see and touch.It is the quantum world.
The quantum or atomic world has different laws that govern them. For example, sub-atomic particles can appear in Two different places at the same time.Scientific observations have shown that sub-atomic particles can go from one spot to another, without crossing the intervening space. In the realm of quantum physics, just observing something actually influences the physical process taking place.
What's going on here? Is this some kind of magic?This is real, I have left links to show I am not making this up. The atomic world is meta-physical. The physical laws of Newton and Einstein do not apply here.
Where is the smoking gun?The quantum world is the foundation of our world.Could some of these meta-physical properties seep into our Newtonian world.How could this wild ,magic world be our foundation, without some intelligence controlling it?

The Big Bang and seconds after.
Reference for origin of Universe
Artist pic of Big Bang
The Big bang Theory is the current scientific explanation for the creation of the Universe. It was created between 13 and 20 billion years ago from a cosmic explosion of a subatomic thing that flung space,time, matter and energy in all directions at once.Everything, that we can see and touch came from an initial speck of infinite density.
There are many theories how this could have happened.There is string theory, which is too complicated to go into here.Another is multi-universes but there is no more evidence of these theories than there is of, I am going to say it,a creator.
The Big Bang theory has only been established within the last 50 years. Before that, most scientist believed that the universe was in a constant state for all time. Now they say it had a beginning. Think about that, from nothing came everything
What happened after the Big Bang?We've established the beginning of everything with the Big Bang Theory.What happened right after, no one knows for sure. What is established is that the universe expanded much like a balloon expands when it is filled with air.
The conditions within the early universe was total chaos.Extreme hot temperatures beyond imagination caused the sub-atomic particles to smash into each other.
Now here's where it gets weird. According to current scientific theory, there were two substances, within the early universe, that destroyed each other when they collided.Scientist call them matter and anti-matter. Scientific models calculate that there should be a equal amount of matter and anti-matter. But they are baffled because if this was so, the early universe would have destroyed itself within the first seconds after the Big Bang
Fortunately for us, there was a slight advantage in matter's favor, calculated at one part per billion. This enabled matter to survive and anti-matter destroyed. Now matter was able to survive and build the universe as we know it.
This is where natural law was established. Any deviation, such as gravity stronger or weaker or the charge of electrons and more, the universe as we know it, could not be possible.
Why the slight difference between matter and anti-matter. There is no answer.Could it be part of the natural process or could that be DESIGN, that a higher intelligence used to create everything.
