  • In recent years, research of the human cell has unearthed some of the enormous complexity found within the basic unit that composes our bodies. Increasingly, the evidence points toward an outside intelligence as the only sufficient source to explain the cell’s existence. Dr. Stephen Meyer joins Dr. John Ankerberg.

      This is not intelligent. This is mistaking "common sense" for proper reasoning. The inadequacy of "common sense" is exactly why we understood so little about the world until the modern scientific method evolved.

    In ancient China there was an old belief called Taoism. Taoism has the following explanation for the creation of the universe: At the start, there was nothing, except Tao, which doesn't have a physical form. Then Tao created "something" from "nothing". The "something" created then went on to create "1". From "1" came "2", and from "2" came "3". With these everything of the universe was created. Originally I didn't understand the significance of creating "3", before creation of everything. As to me "2" would have been enough, since we see a lot of matters/forces/living things having two opposing characters only(e.g. north and south poles of magnets, male and female of human beings). Yet, after studying quantum mechanics, I understand that all the elementary particles (except possibly the newly discovered Higgs bosons) take 3 different forms, then I begin to realize why "3" was needed to be created before creating everything. Can Tao in China be the same as God in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Orthodoxy...?

    The misunderstanding of the Deists is that they confuse the idea that God created His creation in 6 days, and on the 7th day He rested, with the different proposition that God intervenes in His creation and the events and flow of history since then.

Next you will understand GOD or Infinite Divine Mind is completely in control of a perfect creation , Hence God driven creation . The bible is correct and you will cure disease instantly like the bible teaches . That known no one will be able to tell you falsities of mans theories . Christian prayer raises the dead . That is testable and provable .So evolution is complete fraud .So Steven Myers has at least the beginning of faith . He is sincere.

    A singularity at the beginning of time only cries out for an explanation because in our experience there is nothing that begins to exist simultaneously with time itself. We cannot imagine something beginning to exist without also imagining a time before that when it did not exist. However, there was not time before the beginning when the universe did not exist. Therefore, we cannot sat that it "came into being" out of a preceding state. This type of beginning is something so far outside of our experience, so different from any kind of beginning that we have any experience of, that it is just foolhardy to presume that it requires some outside cause. Of course, maybe it does, but we really don't know that.

      I could make the same argument with God. We can't possibly understand Creation because of the Creator's infinite wisdom. It's more than we can comprehend. People have no problem doing that with evolution but scoff at believers who do the same thing with God. The fav question is "who created God?" He has always existed and always will.

    I mean, the bible is another code, like dna, that describes His laws and plan for our morality, that has not contradicted itself, has lasted throughout the ages, in many different cultures, w/ out succumbing to the ages of assaults and attacks pounded against it, ....... , that makes a good case for proof of HIs creation, will for us and promise to us ?
    I believe it of major import to share His word w/ everyone , now that the information has poised Him to be the best answer to all these questions. For if we fail to enlighten the masses of His word, we are as guilty for their sins as they. We will be held accountable !!

      I have not suggested here above or my previous comment to "make" someone believe or "make" them act in any particular way or that we even "could control" what others do w/ the information we share.
      I've simply revealed that I believe it important to God and directed by the bible to be our duty to spread the word.

    I think Steven is an awesome guy. I really enjoyed signature in the cell, and the design arguments and evidences he develops that are not reasonably refuted. I don't however, agree at all with his constant affirmation of the billions of years old universe and earth assertions. It undermines Genesis and the creation narrative, (I am not a young earth creationist) , and there is some really good science that has been championed by Barry Setterfield call Stochastic Elctodynamics that gives a Newtonian explanation for quantum physics. Which also takes into account that the speed of light is slowing down. Thereby affecting the rate of the atomic clock down through the ages.
    Steven believes in Jesus, and therefore he should believe what Jesus said about Moses and the handling down of the creation account from God to Moses.
    If God is the informative one of the information in the cell, I think he would correctly tell Moses how long it took him to create the heavens and earth, once the particulates were created.
    It's not difficult to deduce that the "cambrian explosion " is a result of the flood.

      Speed of light actually varies - and they test it globally and average the "current speed" so they can maintain those GPS satellites. God's emphasis was on spiritual education - he never really inspired people to write us a science manual - I think its more fun to learn on our own - but Satan and his buddies, according the book of Enoch which IS inspired despite what some old romans said about it, Jesus doesn't quote fiction anywhere in the scriptures, I doubt Enoch is "less desirable" to him - Just Catholic Priests and like always - we inherit their bias and mutilated DOCTRINES - literally a combination of Early Christianity and PAgan worship - yet we pass it on and call it scriptural to this day - (sigh) - but according to Enoch - (Only guy in bible Translated from human to spirit without dying first I know of - probably wrote inspired stuff - it fits history) Point is - SATAN and his buddies, often posing as gods, were the one who brought the science books and even eye makeup. Bible describes scientific method - Satan shows you how to get results without God - but by other means. God says nothing against science but he does warn against Satan's deceptions. God promises the seekers: Keep Seeking and you will find the Truth :) Doesn't say when! :) PEACE

That coupled with the entires world has ancient tales of a global flood, in their traditions, their religions, their lore - it really suggests - "The Great Flood" happened.
      Light is indeed a changing - its current procedure to take light speed measurements from various places on the earth and then average them out, and that average "current light speed" is used to adjust the GPS satelites to keep them accurate.

    Notice that Hoyle prefaces his statement about a super intellect fine tuning the universe by calling that a "common sense" interpretation. But, if quantum physics has taught us anything about fundamental reality it is that it completely defies any "common sense" interpretation. "Common sense" is not a very good guide in science because common sense was evolved to help us understand things on a gross level for survival. Common sense helped our ancestors living in the wild to predict things like where there is likely to be clean water of good food or how a certain predator or prey is likely to act. However to understand things at a deeper level like at the level of chemistry or especially the most fundamental, i.e., the quantum level, common sense is of little value and we need to employ the tools of math and science. Suffice to say the "common sense" interpretation of fine tuning is probably wrong.

      Tom Paine, lol you just shot yourself in the foot with that two cent nonsensical statement.
      The depth of your ignorance is off the scale.
      How do you know what science is telling you if you don't have these tool called common sense, logic, rationality?
      "is not a very good guide in science because common sense was evolved to help us understand things on a gross level for survival"
      Why don't you explain to us your understanding of science, I have this feeling that you probably believe that science is some kind of magic, right?
      Your second big big mistake is when you arrogantly spoke as if you have reached the highest peak of knowledge ignoring that there are past civilisations that would make technological advancements look primitive, but of course I bet you didn't know that did you? I would suggest you do a big research on this topic only then you will realise how primitive is our so called technology.
      Very primitive in comparison, we're still burning fuel.
      You think advanced technology saw the light in the 20th century? You're dead wrong.
      I believe you're slightly confused, you do know that scientific models are various forms of interpreting the available data and that's why you end up with several theories trying (Desperately) to explain certain phenomenons and the highest level of certainty science can ever reach is a theory, and that theories come and go meaning they go through paradigm shifts, they morph, and in some cases they are abandoned altogether.
      Scientific discoveries are not written in stones, the scientific knowledge is based mostly on conjecture, assumptions, and a workable probabilistic framework.
      Scientific knowledge is a transient one not eternal, except for a directly observed phenomenon that never change, like the heart beats to pump blood, or the rain evaporates and then falls back, these are known as facts of life.
      So when you speak about science you first need to know what you're talking about.
      Most scientific theories relies on:
      Faith
      Conjecture / assumption
      Some evidence
      Interpretation of the available evidence
      Debates and discussions.
      It will always remain a theory, among several others.
      Science can help understand some areas of the physical realm by allowing us to then reasonably conclude where did that physical universe originate from. We need to use inference, science gets off at this terminus bus stop.
      I hope this helps, please don't be offended by things I have said.

      Perhaps theyre a freak of nature and please note i`m thinking it through and would
      value your contribution as much as i make mine known to you.
      PERHAPS the reason they exist they exist at all is down to a left over evoluntionary
      process or just perhaps in the case of parasites fleas may well become fully understood
      in time to also have some value to our eco systems such as perhaps food for other
      life forms perhaps who knows perhaps theyre, as weve come to know them as
      not good for our species due to a change in their genetic make up aka defect or
      mutation perhaps at some time over billions of yrs ago they had a useful an benefitial
      purpose on your point of bubonic plague perhaps all of the above may apply on bacteria
      well if bacteria didnt exist again perhaps all of the same may apply but thats dependent
      upon your view of whats meant by your statement i e are we talking good or bad
      presuming were talking of bad and its often a vital part of an argument to clarify the
      point your making but if were speaking of bad then again possible its once again
      a mutatation or a freak of nature itself of evolutionary processes but as none of this
      can be observed nor tested were left with at best haphazard assumptions
      the need for bacteria however as im certain many biologists will agree upon is
      paramount for living creatures life itself and is it not a theory that life on earth
      began from bacteria deposited by meteorites or could it just be that when life
      was created it was all good and since the fall of mankind that such things have
      came upon us through mutation having lost their original purpose i sincerely
      cant say nether can science fully comprehend why the why of it all but
      biologists can dependent on scientific research perhaps get some clues
      as to what went wrong dependent on their belief system may i ask is your
      question supportive of mutation or evolutionary processes do you have
      any knowledge of biology which is raised in your question by you are you
      a biologist or did you base this argument purely upon bias in ignorence
      of biology of the science no offence intended by any means as my belief of
      a fallen world may well be concidered as bias in favour of a fallen world
      but i have the grace to admit i personally cant speak of the question youve asked
      as to the why but my question must be can you do so in complete confidence
      of being right and not wrong about the why of it all and taking out the evolutionary
      processes does not automaticly refute the other possible possibilities such as
      mutation or the fact that we may well discover that all those things may have had
      or may have benefit for our health many things which are deemed bad have been
      found to have in small quantities benefitial effects in curing or controlling illnesses
      so who knows and who can say otherwise like i said i would be interested in your
      thoughts .. Kind regards rsvp

    Really pay attention to the quotes that Dr. Meyer provides. You see stuff like "the common sense view is" or we "habitually associate x & y" But if indeed we are evolved beings then our 'common sense" did not evolve for figuring out the fundamental truths about existence. It evolved to help us figure out things useful for survival, and that's it. Also, we habitually associate things, yes, but this make us prone to making erroneous inductive inferences. If every swan we see is white, then we might think that every swan in the world is white. But that is not necessarily the case. Yes, in our day to day lives the creation of information is something we associate with conscious agency. However, does that mean that no unconscious process is capable of creating information. No, not at all. It could be an erroneous inductive inference. This gets to another point: human beings have an innate bias to see agent causation where it does not exist. This makes perfect sense evolutionarily as if you hear rustling in the bushes and run away assuming its a tiger, then you are perhaps inconvenienced, but you survive. If you hear rustling and assume it was not caused by an agent such as a tiger but think perhaps it's just the wind or branch falling, but it is a tiger, you're dead. It's this sort of agent causation bias that led the ancients to think that everything in nature was animated by spirits, every phenomenon was caused by spirits or gods or God. This is exactly the bias that the scientific method corrects for by eschewing all supernatural explanations. This is called methodological naturalism, and by sticking to this science has ushered us out of the age of superstition when people thought every disease was the result of God's wrath at sin or by evil spirits, etc., etc.Societies that have adopted the scientific, naturalistic worldview have freed themselves from being stuck with wrong answers provided to us by cognitive biases and erroneous inductive inferences and other such logical fallacies and have reaped huge benefits by doing so. I'm afraid Dr. Meyer wants to take us backwards here.

The thing is the universe is not just another thing (one part of everything); it's (all of) everything. As such there is no good reason to think it had to come from somewhere. It's "common sense" playing tricks on us. There's even a name for this logical fallacy. It's called a fallacy of composition. This is where you think the whole cannot have a property that does not belong to its parts. For example, you're a primitive person and see an airplane made out of a pieces of metal. You've never seen a piece of metal that can fly, so you don't believe that the airplane can fly.

    Listen to this quote now: "The creation of new information is HABITUALLY associated with consciousness." Why? Because that is what we observe in our day to day lives. But we have never observed directly the type of information formation that goes on inside living organisms. As such, we cannot say whether or not that type of information formation requires conscious input. For us to assume that it must because of what we observed with other types of information is to possibly run afoul of the problem of induction. The problem with induction is that it is never certain. For a cliched example, let's say every swan we have ever seen is white. Does that allow us to say with certainty that no black swans exist? No it does not. And the same goes for information formation. Even if all the information formation that we have ever directly witnessed has been due to conscious input, that does not allow us to propose that all information formation is due to conscious input. In fact, I would say that until someone can show what the conscious input into the formation of genetic information is, we can take that as disconfirmation of that particular inductive inference.

Also how are you defining information? There are several meaning for the term and I suspect that any logical proof that would purport to show that formation of genetic information requires conscious input would also be an equivocation fallacy.
