In 1994, biologist and textbook writer, Kenneth Miller wrote:

The human genome is littered with pseudo-genes [DNA sequences thought to have lost a function they once had], gene fragments, 'orphaned' genes, 'junk' DNA, and so many repeated copies of pointless DNA sequences that it cannot be attributed to anything that resembles intelligent design. If the DNA of a human being or any other organism resembled a carefully constructed computer program, with neatly arranged and logically structured modules each written to fulfill a specific function, the evidence of intelligent design would be overwhelming. In fact, the genome resembles nothing so much as a hodgepodge of borrowed, copied, mutated, and discarded sequences and commands that has been cobbled together by millions of years of trial and error against the relentless test of survival.This was the assertion that was the basis of Richard Dawkins 1976 book, The Selfish Gene. If 97% of DNA was junk DNA, nothing more than a parasite as Dawkins called that 97%, then that unequivocally proved that evolution was the unintelligent, unguided way life advanced not the nonsense of an old bearded man in the sky doing brilliant design work as our loving creator God. But Kenneth Miller and Richard Dawkins were getting ahead of themselves. That wasn’t the last word on the subject – what came next should have entirely turned them around to accepting an intelligent God – but no surprises, when most secular atheists are proven to have gotten it wrong, they kick the can down the road and invent a new reason why they’re still right.

The Jurassic Park series of movies tells the story of human beings using existing living genetic material as the basis for substantially recreating long extinct dinosaurs. It’s purely fictional, but scientifically this is possible. But the huge advantage there is that they’re working with life that already exists.

RNA World – the theory advanced by atheist scientists to show that life could happen without God, is less likely to be able to happen. They have to show that life could begin without God. How is that going for them?

Is there a danger that modern atheist scientists are taking science away from a discipline that only follows the evidence and making it into a religion instead?

some scientists and philosophers have been led, albeit unwittingly, to re-deify the universe by endowing matter and energy with creative powers that they cannot be convincingly shown to possess. Banishing the One Creator God they would then end up with what has been described as the ultimate in polytheism — a universe in which every particle has god-like capacities.
