Another set of fact can be interpreted as evidence for Design.
That is the fact
that the fossil record, according to the late S.J. and N.
Eldredge is one where
most new species appear abruptly in the fossil record, then
remain in a state of
_stasis_during their tenure on the planet; followed by sudden
disappearance
from the record. This is exactly what intelligent design would
expect to find.

This is utterly incredible. No one knows, beyond doubt, of
course, there are
theories and hypothesis as to how life started or where
information in cells
originated. In this mindless, purposeless, careless, thoughtless >>>>>>> and blind

So, why did
a mindless, careless nature "see" a purpose for and "design"
these several
(5) proofreading and repair mechanisms. After RNA expresses
protein
and the body, organs, limbs etc are formed, Information from DNA to >>>>>>> RNA to protein is a one way street. So, if according to the
"central dogma"
there is no possible way for DNA to "know" anything about the
fitness or
lack of fitness regarding organisms expressed by mRNA. In this >>>>>>> mindless,
careless universe the DNA is blind to it's final results. So, is >>>>>>> this is the case
there's nothing that keeps DNA from countless, unlimited wild
swings of
massive numbers of random mutation.
As far as I'm concerned, this strongly implies forethought,
purpose, plan
and deliberate design. There's no reason to think these
proofreading and
repair systems just happened. If it was not purpose and plan then >>>>>>> the only alternative is, it was purely accidental. But somewhere, >>>>>>> somehow there had to be purpose.
How exactly did these 5 proofreading and repair mechanisms arise? >>>>>>> Why and how could random mutations detect faulty mutation then

mutations and natural selection?
- that's because they are not doing science. Indeed that's why >>>>>>> it is obvious that their agenda is not scientific.

It's not that G & E discovered this characteristic in the

What is the difference between explaining and explaining away? >>>>>>>>>
