  anyone else also hold this view or understand it at least, or do you feel the need to argue that both can in no way coexist?.

  Caedes, do not confuse adaptation with evolution. Adaptation is necessary for survival. But in most cases it would pre-programmed. Some view spontaneous mutations as the cause. As mentioned, spontaneous mutations are very seldom beneficial. They kill rather than improve. Some Pseudomonas bacteria digest oil, so I am not surprised that some bacteria might lunch on nylon.

  No Half banana, it's much simpler that that. Information science and technology are relatively new, I will grant you that. But let me explain "information" to you. I will use three examples: 1) Radio announcer (with information) > radio > listener. 2) Writer (with information) > book > library > reader. 2) Programmer (with information) > computer program > DVD or CD. So, what is information? Is it the radio, or book, or DVD? No, these are mere receptacles of information. The actual information is massless, intangible and an abstract construct of a mind. In each case, you have a sender (originator) of information and you have a receiver (or recipient) of information. Now the DNA/RNA system in the nucleus of a cell is an information system. It supplies information to construct an organism, plant or animal. The information over the radio, in the book and on the DVD had to be placed there by an intelligent mind. However, as was previously explained, the DNA/RNA information system is much more complex than the information in above examples. Conclusion: The laws of information, similar to above examples, demand an intelligent creator for DNA/RNA.

  Ah, Viv's back. Please Viv, if you have the time, go through the video, and let me know if you see logical flaws in the presentation, and what they are. There's no rush, so take your time. Thanks in anticipation.

  In continuation of what I said before: A DNA machine is a molecular machine constructed from DNA. Research into DNA machines was pioneered in the late 1980s by Nadrian Seeman and co-workers from New York University. DNA is used because of the numerous biological tools already found in nature that can affect DNA, and the immense knowledge of how DNA works previously researched by biochemists.

  DNA machines can be logically designed since DNA assembly of the double helix is based on strict rules of base pairing that allow portions of the strand to be predictably connected based on their sequence. This 'selective stickiness' is a key advantage in the construction of DNA machines (Wiki).

  Man-made DNA sequencer: Man is also working on a DNA sequencer, still imperfect, but they are getting there.

  Because of limitations in DNA sequencer technology these reads are short compared to the length of a genome therefore the reads must be assembled into longer contigs. The data may also contain errors, caused by limitations in the DNA sequencing technique or by errors during PCR amplification. DNA sequencer manufacturers use a number of different methods to detect which DNA bases are present. The specific protocols applied in different sequencing platforms have an impact in the final data that is generated. Therefore, comparing data quality and cost across different technologies can be a daunting task. Each manufacturer provides their own ways to inform sequencing errors and scores. However, errors and scores between different platforms cannot always be compared directly. Since these systems rely on different DNA sequencing approaches, choosing the best DNA sequencer and method will typically depend on the experiment objectives and available budget (Wiki).

  
  

  Half banana, as you might have noticed, the chain of evidence, involving the laws of information and DNA, disproves the "scientific theorum" of evolution. An advanced information system, e.g., DNA, cannot spontaneously generate and improve on itself all the time. Impossible. What you are is in your DNA? Spontaneous mutations in your DNA are likely to kill you rather than improve you. So has evolution stood the test of time? Not really. What the alternative to evolution is, you'll have to decide for yourself.

  Take note: Evolution is a religion built on faith. E.g., the leading evolutionist of the 20th century is generally considered to be Sir Julian Huxley, primary architect of modern neo-Darwinism. Huxley called evolution a "religion without revelation." I personally believe evolution is the most worthless religion of them all. It is based on a lie and teaches you nothing.

  It is NOTHING like a blueprint. That is one of the worse metaphors for DNA you could think of.

  Really? If you design a car or a house, you need blueprints or architectual drawings. If you design an organism, what do you need? In DNA you do not only have the blueprint, but you have the mechanism to proceed and build it. Yes, you're right, DNA is much more than a blueprint. It incorporates the blueprint and proceeds to manufacture what it necessary for the organism to survive and replicate. It's the blueprint with the factory, tools and workers, all in one. It's a f@$#ing miracle!

  Information theory is a framework for understanding the transmission of data and the effects of complexity and interference with these transmissions. The theory is often applied to genetics to show how information held within a genome can actually increase, despite the apparent randomness of mutations (Wiki).

  Interestingly, here information theory is applied to genetics “to show how information held within the genome can actually increase.” But where did it all begin? Information cannot appear out of thin air, liquids or solids for that matter. But when it goes against the grain of evolutionists, they will continue to ridicule and laugh it off as ridiculous. They will only apply it when it suits them.

  DNA could be compared to language. But actually it is much more complex, as though it is thinking for itself, like a robot. And we know, a robot must be designed, constructed, and programmed to perform.

  
  Self-organizing robots by Satochi Murata and Haruhisa Kurokawa, p. 245:

  "All design spesification of a molecular robot built in such a way could be reduced to base sequences of A, C, G, and T, and with such a robot it could be said that for the first time we have created an artificial entity that has the same information structure as biological systems."

  Sorry, denial, but you know what I mean. DNA qualifies as an information system. It consists of information of how to construct and maintain an organism. However, It's much more than an instruction manual, it's rather a blueprint. It'll take one helluva spontaneous mutation to come up with a single strand of DNA, let alone a nucleus full of them.

  Above are the laws of information. Definition of information: 1) Not bound to its medium. 2) Massless. 3) Intangible. 4) Immaterial. 5) Abstract construct of mind.

  Now apply above laws to the DNA molecule and its function. The DNA in a cell nucleus is an information system. It holds information on the structure of the cell and organism. It works with Algorithms in its reading process. One could compare the DNA code to a language. We know where languages come from.

  Cofty, and the dance of the electrons. No, you surely have a problem here. The DNA is an information system that cannot fall out of the air, or appear out of the primordial soup without a helping hand of somebody. In any case, I wanted Viv, the expert on rational thoughts', opinion. I know your opinion: Denail, denail, denail....

  Cofty, I wanted Viv to follow the reasoning, and point out flaws, if any. She's the expert, don't you know?

  In any case, here's a summary:
  

  Laws of information and information science are the following:

  1) Anything material such as physical/chemical processes cannot create something non-material. E.g., information.

  2) Information is a non-material fundamental entity and not a property of matter.

  3) Information requires a material medium for storage and transmission (E.g. books, CD, DVD, etc.).

  4) Information cannot originate in statistical processes.

  5) There can be no information without code.

  6) All codes result from an intentional choice and agreement between sender and recipient.

  7) The determination of meaning for and from a set of symbols is a mental process that requires intelligence.

  8) There can be no new information without an intelligent purposeful sender.

  9) Any give chain of information can be traced back to an intelligent source (E.g. radio announcer, radio waves, radio).

  10) Information comprises the non-material foundation for all

  Viv, as creator of Viv'sw Law, I would like your opinion on the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLb_VYomZkQ

  To follow the reasoning, you'll have to watch the whole thing. Thanks in anticipation.
