No disagreement there. However, you may have not noticed my post of the following:
“DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created.”
The Road Ahead by Bill Gates, 1995
We know that a computer does not do anything on its own, but needs input of a program by a person with intelligence to tell it what to do a ...[text shortened]... question that begs to be asked is who was the programmer that programed these DNA/RNA molecules?
Originally posted by sonhouseGod is Spirit. God made animals with body and soul. But God made us with body, soul, and spirit. The spirit of man is what is made in the image of God. The soul and spirit is so closely linked it is difficult for us to tell the difference. The Holy Bible compares the dividing of the soul snd spirit as like the dividng of joints and marrow.
So your god created man in his own image? Does your god have more DNA than mankind? Or is the DNA content of man equal to the DNA content of your god?
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
(Hebrews 4:12 NKJV)

No argument there. I work in an industry were the way something is worded can cause problems but things are said or stated a certain way which to somebody else outside of the industry would not make sense or what have you. It is amazing though that the DNA-RNA just does what it does automatically....aka like computer code. I would say computer code in not conscious either.
PS: sorry this was in answer to JS357

A is like B in a "X" sort of way.
Therefore, A is like B in a "Y" sort of way.
Can I say it any more simply?
Originally posted by JS357I think your logic is incorrect. Bill Gates should know a computer like program when he sees one. DNA is defintely a program with information code. The difference as I see it is only in the system and language of the program information code. One is in an electronic system and the other is in a biological system.

This researcher is so indoctrinated to believe in evolution that even though he refers to software and design he still refuses to believe it didn't just happen by evolution.

It is the only difference as you SEE it. Agreed.

This is a computer Coder independent of being a Creationist (well don't know what this person's beliefs are) shows how DNA is like Computer Code. I think anyone saying DNA does not work like code is being intellectually dishonest. It is bits of information.

I cannot see how DNA is a program ... what is its input?
Can you think of any program which is like DNA?
Originally posted by wolfgang59DNA is data rather than program I'd say. The same would be true of information of any sort. The program is not information, the data is. So where is the program in a DNA-based genetic system? I would say that is the system whereby the DNA is "read" and proteins produced, DNA is input and proteins are output. The program is the gubbins between DNA and protein.

Cue RJ and disciples trying to "prove" that must have been made by a sky fairy.
