Where did the universe come from? Atheistic origin science has no answer.

And you were wrong on that count. A ratio can be expressed multiple ways, including 34/23.7. The reason nobody responded is because they couldn't believe that you were stupid enough to believe otherwise. And you still haven't responded to the main point. Here, I'll repeat it for you.

I was not wrong, the whole point was about how you could take the dimensions of DNA, divide them together and get the golden ratio.
In my case the numbers were 34 and 21 which when divided together comes out as the ratio of 1.61, I made this clear from the beginning, any other "expression" of a ratio isn't relevant.

Further more a ratio can be expressed also as a fraction if you are saying that 34/23.7 is a fraction, explain the decimal point?

otherwise a ":" between the numbers is the proper way of displaying a ratio.

Cue Huggy arguing about the meaning of words.....

I Disagree,

Remember you accusing me of cherry picking?

Dimensions of B-form (the most common) of DNA

0.34 nm between bp, 3.4 nm per turn, about 10 bp per turn
1.9 nm (about 2.0 nm or 20 Angstroms) in diameter

Surgenators, own link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA

DNA is a long polymer made from repeating units called nucleotides.[3][4][5] DNA was first identified and isolated by Friedrich Miescher and the double helix structure of DNA was first discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick, using experimental data collected by Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins. The structure of DNA of all species comprises two helical chains each coiled round the same axis, and each with a pitch of 34 ångströms (3.4 nanometres) and a radius of 10 ångströms (1.0 nanometres).

These two sources agree that the width is 20 Å, making my original number of 21 alot closer than your 23.7, which you claim to be the most common.

I'm sure there are much riper cherries to pick out of his post if you really tried.

I don't know how I can misconstrue the phrase "There is no such thing as fibonacci sequence" as meaning he doesn't believe the fibonacci sequence exists.
I think anyone familiar with the English language would come to the same conclusion.

There is a lot on contradictory data on the web. Here are some sites suggesting the diameter of 19 or 20 A.

Here are some links that show the B-Form to be wider 23.7 A.

However, I can't find any source that gives me a ratio of 34/21 that isn't from a golden ratio site.

The best source I found looks at a lot of published data. I couldn't figure out exatly what it was saying, but I got the impression that the dimension of DNA varies depending on the sequence you have. Also, the fibre model used works well on a general case, but not for specifics.
