Does
DNA Evolve?
DNA is an instruction manual for the body. The DNA resides in the nucleus of the cell, it is a library with billions of instructions necessary for life. "If written out, a human genetic code would fill the pages of 200 1,000-page New York City telephone directories." PBS Nova
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/genome/facts.html
This means that the code in one strand of human DNA is equivalent to 200,000 pages of computer code. DNA is not just a bunch of letters in any order. On the contrary DNA coding is extremely precise, every letter must be placed exactly. It is like when missing one number while dialing a phone the result is a wrong number. In computer code if the programmer changes a feature it likely will affect other related items. Microsoft has this problem all the time with their operating systems. A new update may fix a series of problems but inadvertently create new problems in another features. They are constantly testing, changing, evaluating, getting feedback, make decisions and then with the best minds they creatively go about fixing problems.
Evolution has no intelligence. It is totally dumb. It does not evaluate, plan, organize or have the ability to intentionally change something based on information of any sort. For evolution to create a sophisticated program powerful enough to run a human being is absolutely astounding for intelligent scientists to even consider it. It is absolutely impossible aside from God.
"To produce DNA, it requires over 75 different types of proteins. Yet DNA is essential for creating proteins." A Question of Origins video Did you see that!!! Proteins are required to make DNA and DNA is required to make proteins. Both extremely complicated systems are necessary at the same time and must be fully functioning in order to create the other.
DNA is like the information on a CD-ROM. Proteins are like the plastic CD-ROM. RNA is like the CD-ROM drive. In order for DNA to evolve and be useful it requires the DNA (complex information), several proteins (Plastic CD-ROM) and the RNA (the CD-ROM drive) for this program to have a chance to work. However, neither DNA, RNA or Protein would evolve by natural selection because they require the existence of the other systems. Evolution is hopelessly inadequate for producing DNA, not to mention the absolutely astounding complexity of a single cell.
