Creation Moment 10/8/2024 - Those "bags of proteins" are COMPLEX

For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:20

"A new bacterium discovered living in the Caribbean mangroves is about 5,000 times bigger than any other previously known microbe! The cells of this bacterium can grow into long threads up to 2 cm
long.

This bacterium also stores its DNA in a separate compartment in the cell, something which was only thought to occur in the cells of ‘complex life’ such as animals.

As Chris Greening, a microbiologist at Monash University, said, “All too often, bacteria are thought of as small, simple, ‘unevolved’ life forms—so-called ‘bags of proteins’. But this bacterium shows this couldn’t be much further from the truth.”
