I thinking it is rather miraculous that DNA (Code) is at work in all lifeforms on this planet earth. It's equivalent to all life having the same OS. We can argue semantics but atheist or theist really can't dispute this fact.

How did the DNA code originate?

Originally posted by menace71If you have the nucleotides adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil, you have the possible arrangements of DNA, based on the combinations they are likely and unlikely to form. Most combinations are junk. Now and then, a combination comes along that can be codes for the making of something else, including a copy of itself. It is more like monkeys on typewriters than it is like a miracle.

God 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.

The component in DNA is thymine.
Originally posted by sonhouseWhy should God need genes or DNA? He does not need to be programmed to stay alive becasue He is Spirit and life. You should look at the videos and you should see that God made the genes and the DNA to program the biological systems that he created.
So your god has no genes? No DNA?

Originally posted by menace71It is this that leads scientists to the conclusion that all life is related. However, I am not sure it is entirely true that all life is based on DNA. There are parts of the cell that run on RNA and probably came from life forms based only on RNA. Then there are virus' which you may or may not choose to call 'life', but then your statement is less of a miraculous fact and more of a 'true by definition'. Also there are some life forms with slightly different bases in the DNA.

And finally I must point out that we have only just scratched the surface of what life forms there are and really do not have that much information about whats out there. All our tests are either for macroscopic life forms or those based on DNA. If there were RNA life forms everywhere we probably would not see them.
