I'm sure you think this is a great, prophetic truth you hold, but it is nonsense.
DNA / RNA / amino acids are specified by several different codons, accounting for all 64 three-letter combinations.
" ... stored on one of the two strands of a DNA molecules as a linear, non-overlapping sequence of the nitrogenous bases Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine © and Thymine (T). These are the "alphabet" of letters that are used to write the "code words"." <LINK REMOVED>
"As the DNA ‘alphabet’ contains four letters - called bases - there are as many as 64 three-letter words available in the DNA dictionary. This is because it is mathematically possible to produce 64 three-letter words from any combination of four letters.
But why there should be 64 words in the DNA dictionary which translate into just 20 amino acids, and why a process that is more complex than it needs to be should have evolved in the first place, has puzzled scientists for the last 40 years." <LINK REMOVED>
As they keep looking deeper and deeper into this, they see information. Your statements are incorrect. This guy in the video is smarter than you and I combined. What is his conclusion?
