Creationism
"We must concede that there are presently no detailed Darwinian accounts of the evolution of any biochemical or cellular system, only a variety of wishful speculations." --Franklin M. Harold, The Way of the Cell: Molecules, Organisms and the Order of Life, p. 205 (Oxford University Press, 2001).
Notes
- Michael Egnor: The Evidence against Materialism. Published 6/10/2019. Duration 29:44. We can now scientifically demonstrate that humans have FREE WON'T (starts at 18:00 to 19:37). We can't stop the motives, but we can stop the decision to do them. In other words, we are bombarded with choices and we choice by negating the ones we don't want to do.
- Designed For Flight - Chuck Missler. Published 8/29/2012. Duration 10:13.
- James Tour: The Origin of Life Has Not Been ExplainedN. Published 7/5/2019. Duration 22:56. Excellent summary of the problems with the "science" of the origin of life. Origin of life is abiological. Four classes of molecules: nucleic acids, amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, The last three are homochiral (i.e. left-handed). We don't know how to make these molecules in a pre-biotic environment.
- Is DNA a Computer Program?. DNA possesses numerous computer programming design patters, such as: (1) digitally expressed information (DNA is base 4 as compared to binary or base 2 computers), (2) class-object pattern (where DNA is the class and transcribed items are the objects whether they are RNA or proteins), (3) interface, (4) state machine, (5) service, (6) message, (7) key, (8) adapter, (9) composite, (10) polymorphism, and (11) feedback loop.

Custance. Although a believer in the "gap theory", this
late author (1910 - 1985) has written many useful books on creationism.

Illustra Media produces video documentaries that examine the scientific
case for intelligent design. Here is a list of the videos:

Many articles on creationism.
- Creation-Evolution
Headlines. Combing the scientific journals, reporting and commenting
almost daily on the latest findings in science related to Creation
vs. Evolution. The site is visited by 70 countries from every continent.
- The
Origin-of-Life Prize. A one million dollar prize will be
awarded for proposing a highly plausible natural-process mechanism
for the spontaneous rise of genetic instructions in nature sufficient
to give rise to life. The explanation must be consistent with empirical
biochemical, kinetic, and thermodynamic concepts as further delineated
herein, and be published in a well-respected, peer-reviewed science
journal(s). Payment will be made in 20 equal $50K per year payments.

Mysterious Stone Chambers & Giants Discovered in New England- Jim Vieira. Strange stone tunnels and chambers, perhaps pre-historic, have been found in Leyden, Wendell, Pelham, Montague, New Salem, Whitingham, VT and throughout New England. Who built these structures and when? Why?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - arguably the second in importance only to DNA
As far as known, all organisms from the simplest bacteria to humans use ATP as their primary energy currency. See ATP: The Perfect Energy Currency for the Cell
- Are there any organisms that do not use ATP?. Simple answer: ATP is the main energy carrier in all organisms. Some organisms also use GTP to great extent, but there really is not an organism that doesn't use either ATP or GTP ultimately. You use over 50kg ATP a day! In addition, NAD+ and NADPH are used for reductive/oxidative power, but are not direct energy carriers.
- How did life exist before ATP? Notes: There is no other known energy sources other than GTP which needs ATP to be created.
- How was ATP produced outside the highly complex mechanism currently understood? Notes: Protein parts and enzymes are used to produce ATP, but it requires ATP produce the protein part and enzymes in the first place!
- ATP is produced by only four basic methods: (1) in bacterial cell walls, (2) in the cytoplasm of by photosynthesis, (3) in chloroplasts, and (4) in mitochondria.
