Why Believe in God?
(Part 2)
Let's
talk about the origin of life on Earth now. The earliest form of life being
microscopic, a basic cell, the building block. This cell though the simplest
and the most basic component is unbelievably complex, contains several other
constituents in itself. The cell, as it is said and believed, was a product of
continual evolutionary process under the effect of the atmospheric conditions
billions of years ago.
Among
all other constituents of the cell, let's single out DNA. DNA that holds
information about the organism, the traits, physical as well as behavioral
characteristics, a very powerful thing. Science and research has found that : "The human genome,
the genetic code in each human cell, contains 23 DNA molecules each containing
from 500 thousand to 2.5 million nucleotide pairs." Also if
you stretched the DNA in one cell all the way out, it would be about 2m long
and all the DNA in all your cells put together would be about twice the
diameter of the Solar System.
As a result of abundance of reasoning and knowledge, we are
aware that for the 500 thousand nucleotide pairs, their combination and
sequencing is a vital factor that governs the properties of the genes, DNA and
consequently the whole human genome. Must have taken very many years to form an
organism, a complex organism capable of thinking and forming ideas with proper
functionality, physical symmetry and pleasant appearance. Let us calculate the
probability of these 500 thousand nucleotide pairs being perfectly located to
help DNA do that miracle, How many years do you get, knowing that evolution
itself is a steady phenomenon and it would have taken considerable measure of
time to carry that out also keeping in view the fact that it doesn't know what
the perfect alignment would be? The permutation of 500 thousand! i.e 500000!,
the answer of which is a figure that no calculator on earth can calculate which is far beyond the calculated age of the Earth!
It's just like providing the monkeys a type-writer and letting
them bang their hands over it, they sure will type words and sentences and
pages, say 500,000 letters, but will those words and sentences make any sense,
all of them being right on point? No, absolutely not. And again for those
letters to make perfect sense, all of them, simultaneously, the probability is
what I have already explained.
You decide now, what does your intellect, wisdom and
intuition say?
