Also, the whole argument is nonsense because evolution doesn't randomly assemble the finished DNA.

This is given our perfect environment for life on earth. Move one adenine out of place in a DNA sequence and an entire species fails to emerge. Yet, there are approximately 9 million successful species on this planet. This isn’t because the misplacement of the adenine caused another species (Darwinism), the misplacement of the adenine prevented 9 million and 1 species. DNA is extremely sensitive to how it is compiled. 

Look at my other posts, the likelihood of this occuring randomly is more to the order of 10^40000


there are about two thousand enzymes, and the chance of obtaining them all in a random trial is only one part in (10^20)^2000 = 10^40,000, an outrageously small probability that could not be faced even if the whole universe consisted of organic soup. We are an anomaly.

You forget evolution by natural selection which completely changes the situation.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
