Put on your hip waders; its running deep in here !!!!!
“laboratory-born ribonucleic acid (RNA)”...He hopes to imbue his team’s molecule with all the fundamental properties of life...Joyce and colleague Tracey Lincoln made their chemical out of RNA...Joyce’s team created...Further lab tinkering made this molecule better at copying itself, but this is not the same as bringing it to life...Lincoln redesigned the molecule to forge a sister RNA...”I wouldn’t call these molecules alive,” he cautions...Joyce says his team has endowed its molecule with another function...More fundamentally, to mimic biology, a molecule must gain new functions on the fly, without laboratory tinkering. Joyce says he has no idea how to clear this hurdle with his team’s RNA molecule....”If somebody makes something great in the lab, it’s fantastic. But really the origin of life on Earth is an historical problem that we’re never going to be able to witness and verify,” he says. (Bingo!—GGG)
Does it ever occur to these scientists (who are made in God’s image) that they are intelligently designing (non-living) molecules to mimic God’s pre-existing intelligent designs?
