    in the past.
    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.
    Of course there were exceptions to the rule, the few that did not >>>>>>> go extinct. It

    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,

    there's nothing that keeps DNA from countless, unlimited wild

    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.
