The Genetic Code and Universal Common Ancestry

Common ancestry seems to explain why all life shares a common genetic code, and it does it quite well. It’s the very same explanation for why you and your close relatives share the same genetic code.

Can you explain why you think evolution can not optimize systems?

base on the fact that every code we know of is the result of design.

  1. a code\information is best explain by design and not by a natural process.
  2. a minimal genetic code will need at least several parts: 2 trna and 2 aminoacyl tRNA synthetase. so a natural stepwise process cant explain it.

ROFL, nevermind.

Where is the evidence that the genetic code is the result of design?

in its outcome. since the result of that code is something that look design (in level of a watch)- we can conclude that the code is the result of design too.

That’s not how science works. Conclusions are not based on subjective opinions.

It’s a watch. I know that people make watches.

great. the same is true for genomes- we know that people make genomes.

Um, no it isn’t.

“since the result of that code is something that look design (in level of a watch)- we can conclude that the code is the result of design too.”

“It looks designed” is a subjective opinion.

Yes. You are making a subjective judgment that something looks designed.

We don’t know that any person made any genome of any organism found in the wild. We know that they didn’t.

On the contrary, we know these genomes evolved.

If you are an Israeli, why are you linking to Amazon España?

Only recently, and only by copying prior genomes. All this wordplay is fun, but do you have a real point? I don’t think so.

so a watch doesnt look designed?. ok. lets agree to disagree.

no. you actually assume that. you dont know that.

yes. we need to conclude design about nature on the same base that we conclude design when we see a watch.

Ah, so you’re channeling Paley. Clearly, you’re one of the finest minds of the 18th Century.

A watch does not reproduce and shows evidence of human manufacture. Organisms reproduce and do not show signs of human manufacture. Therefore, we can not conclude that life is designed.

We’ve been through this exact same argument before multiple times.
