The Miracle Of Protein

People who lack sufficient information on a given subject—or who do not think about it much—may arrive at a number of mistaken ideas, or may be deliberately led astray by others.
For example, for those with little interest in how a television works and no idea of what components the mechanism consists, the television set is simply a means of watching films or news programs. Those people will be unable to appreciate the marvelous technology in the apparatus if they remain unaware of how the video and audio signals reach the television, and do not consider how the image appears on the screen. How satellite connections are established, how images originating from another country first head into space and then without encountering any obstruction reach the television in their home with full sound and color, what function its components serve, what materials are used to make it, and the logic behind the remote control device—none of that matters! They view a television as merely an electrical device for watching selected programs.
What, you may wonder, is this analogy doing in the introduction to a book about proteins? To emphasize that lacking information on any particular subject may lead to serious errors or superficiality. When people fail to consider certain issues, they may remain unaware of the most vital matters. True, not understanding how a television set works or not giving the subject much thought may not represent too much of a loss. Yet not considering the question of how life on Earth began and survived—and blindly believing in unrealistic "answers" to that question—may cause people to make the most serious errors and suffer the most serious losses. Therefore, we urgently need to reflect on the origins of life.
How did life begin? By describing various features of proteins—the basic building blocks of life—this book provides the only valid answer: that life began by being created by Allah, the Superior and Mighty Creator.
Allah calls in the Qur'an to those who are unaware of this truth:
Does not man recall that We created him before when he was not anything? (Surah Maryam: 67)

It's not just Christians that are intelligent design nutters.
I think the general gist is that Allah, who made protein, is like a TV set. I think.
That's true man.
John Logie Baird is the ONE true God
Right, that's that sorted. Who's for tea and a buttery muffin ?
*it will backfire on you though*
No it doesn't.
It looks like -
a) An impending, multiple train crash on the District, Central and Piccadilly lines
or
b) What London Underground would look like if Alton Towers ran it.
Only cos it's upside down
It should be this way around really:
Which reminds me of Bruce Forsythe when he says "Nice to see you, to see you, nice"
LOL, Xtian fail. It's as funny as intelligent design.
It's a diagram - I know the religious have a slightly shaky view on reality, but you do know the difference, don't you? Hint, women don't look like this
, and there is no "thermos flask" underpinning the London Underground
Of course, even if we accept that ghod intended us to consider the diagram, those spirally bits? I don't remember those on any Christian cross. In fact a pretty fundamental part of a cross is it consists of two straight parts "crossing" whereas laminin "is composed of three polypeptides (A, B1, and B2)" (and if you remember, your lord had to carry the crossbar, but despite being the son of ghod couldn't manage it - there is no crossbar in laminin).
In fact, the diagram looks far more like a caduceous - proof then that the Romans had it right, and Hermes is the God we should be worshipping?
but if you want to know what laminin looks like - its in A, B and D
The strange thing is though that some of the most zealous religous people started out being totally anti-religon. I can give the example of Mario Forte for one who one night set out to kill a paster at a church his girlfriend was going to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXwpHktYmQs
Or Nicky Cruz made famous by the book the Cross and the Switchblade who when first approached by a street preacher threatened him with a knife. Just months later he was preaching himself.
You? An open mind? POTW!!!! It looks more like a sword to me!
I suppose I should have an open mind about this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq7LXn4KSrM
Careful you don't leave it too open, you know what might happen...
If you have an open mind, perhaps it's just you eyes that are closed. Otherwise you would have seen this:
Dunno about you, but I can't see any crosses...
:yes:
In the second it looks like he's got flippers on. The last one looks like the pair of them after an explosion...
your point being that people not right in the head become preachers?
