In the beginning God created... Genesis 1:1
"What would you conclude if you landed on a planet and found coded information everywhere you went?
That’s what we have all around us on this planet.
Our planet is awash in codes — not just in little bits of information, but in long strings of messages containing billions of letters arranged in highly specified, non-repetitive sequences.
These sequences correspond to messages that told molecular machines
--how to build tissues and organs,
--run complex metabolic processes,
--and construct brains.
If these codes were written large on paper, it would be like walking on piles of blueprints and dictionaries at every step."

That’s what we have all around us on this planet.
No matter where you go, there is complex specified information. It’s under every rock.
It’s in every handful of water.
It’s in the soil.
It’s in the air.
Strings of message-bearing codes are everywhere.
It’s called environmental DNA (eDNA), and it is coming into its own as a tool for investigating the world around us. Our planet is awash in codes — not just in little bits of information, but in long strings of messages containing billions of letters arranged in highly specified, non-repetitive sequences.
These sequences correspond to messages that told molecular machines
--how to build tissues and organs,
--run complex metabolic processes,
--and construct brains.
If these codes were written large on paper, it would be like walking on piles of blueprints and dictionaries at every step."
