^ We have discussed this before - there is little mainstream work on it. A creationist paper published last year (I have the hard copy) suggests that in the (evoltuionary) time available it would be unlikely for a single protein family to appear. I have not critiqued it professionally (due to laziness) but on casual reading it seemed to make sense and was written by German PhDed molecular biologists. I am a mathematical biologist and plan to have a close read sometime. It is linked somewhere in the archives here (to a pdf) and was discussed by myself and SLPx. I think the article talks about cyctochrome c as a specific example. SLPx was not impressed but did not mention specific defects in the arguement or calculations.

. . . somewhere but not God - right? At least not a God who is at least as conscious as us? Why not?
