Romans 1:22 NLT
"Some factoids gleaned from the reports: the ribosome contains “hundreds of thousands of atoms.” New Scientist said that the ribosome includes a “fact-checker” which “explains why nature produces so few faulty proteins.” Ramakrishnan said, “we knew this was a large molecular machine that translated genetic code to make proteins, but we didn’t know how it worked.”

It took many years of X-ray crystallography and other delicate techniques to determine the structure. “We still don’t know exactly how it works, but we have made a tremendous amount of progress as a direct result of knowing what it looks like,” he added.
PhysOrg, echoing an AP story, brought Darwin into the picture – albeit briefly. “Their work builds on Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and, more directly, on the work done by James Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins, who won the 1962 Nobel Prize in medicine for mapping DNA’s double helix, the citation said.”

The article did not elaborate on the Darwin connection.
It appears to be a missing link."
