Doddy on micro vs macro systems.

Doddy does a great job blowing away the old "my truck won't build itself" canard.

This analogy falls over, because macroscopic systems don't compare with microscopic ones. Your truck parts won't be floating around your garage, bumping into one another, but biological molecules will.

Re: Jar for a very good example

Thank you. It will be interesting to see if someone can show the predictive value of either ID or Biblical Creationism in the spin off thread.
