Because RNA is Coded by DNA, the Vicious circle of Genetic Biochemistry is still incomprehensible to Scientists when they try to comprehend how DNA came into being.(January 17, 2017 at 11:54 pm)Pulse Wrote: There is much evidence of God for the open minded,
Insinuations of dishonesty. We're off to a good start.
There is much that is touted as evidence; however none of it credible nor that withstands even the slightest scrutiny.

Why would you use logic to assess a physical phenomenon? Why not use the appropriate tool for the job,in this case biochemistry and genetics? Especially when you already conceded that such things are counterintuitive. As AronRa says, DNA is made from RNA and RNA replicates itself.
In any case, you don't make your own case out of negatively pointing at an opposing one, which ought to be obvious when you don't even understand it.

It's a relationship, and Prayer is a relationship, and if we pray to God just for a joke or to test Him, then He sees He is mocked, that doesn't bode well for a close relationship, with God, or with your spouse or child.
How astonishingly convenient; and with an attempt at fear to boot. Trying to test prayer doesn't work, and that proves that "God" is real. Do you know how insane that sounds?
Regardless, there have been many studies into the efficacy of prayer, the most notable of which by the completely religious Templeton Foundation in 2006. Their double blind study involving cardiac patients not only failed to show any positive effect, some patients actually did worse when they knew they were being prayed over. It seems that telling someone about to undergo lifesaving heart surgery that you'll pray for them tends to get them unnecessarily worried about their chances. Who knew?
The DNA itself codes for the proteins that are required for its own replication, it requires at least 50 proteins for the necessary decoding, As Sir Karl Popper once said "Thus the code can not be translated except by using certain products of its translation. This constitutes a baffling circle; a really vicious circle".
