The Chemistry Nobel Prize 2009 Quote | "for studies of the structure and function of the ribosome" | will offer UD-creationists more opportunities than the teleomeres awarded in Medicine and Physiology.Thus, be prepaired to see more like this Quote | I think the ribosome is the ultimate testimony to irreducible complexity and complex specified information. The flagellum is trivial in comparative complexity but to give credit where credit is due, the flagella’s structure is more readily understood due to widespread understanding of motors and propellers whereas the ribomsome is most like a computer controlled 3D milling machine programmed to make all the parts required to build a duplicate of itself. | and this Quote | The ribosome should be our focal point. Other ID proponents, Bill Dembski in particular, say that the DNA/protein paradox is too complex for lay persons to easily grasp and the ribosome’s structure doesn’t immediately bring to mind any machines people are familiar with. And so the flagellum remains the icon of ID instead of the ribosome. | If Dr. Dr. Dembski only listened to DaveScot the ribosome would be UD's mascot.
-------------- "[...] the type of information we find in living systems is beyond the creative means of purely material processes [...] Who or what is such an ultimate source of information? [...] from a theistic perspective, such an information source would presumably have to be God."
