God's Magnum Opus?
註釋This book is written to open up the microbiological world that is behind life and shows how science shapes our world view. Tim asks the question, "Who owns science?" He then looks at the way in which religious world view interferes with the scientific method; influencing secular scientists to ask the wrong questions when approaching the evidence that they see before them - whereby they will always look for a process to be the reason for why technology is within the cosmos rather than a person, the divine. By examining the mechanisms of evolution, hereditary exchange (DNA mix), mutation and natural selection Tim shows how none of these can add new information into the cell in order to create new technologies within a creature's body and so evolve the creature upwards. He illustrates that all that happens in the cell is 'data expression change' which causes sideways movements within the creature's family type, for example producing lions, tigers, cheetahs, jaguars, etc. within the cat family. He looks at further questions of homology, common ancestry and the fossil record and shows that all of these are evidence for a designer using common technology rather than an unguided biological evolutionary tree of life.Tim then looks inside the cell and examines how the microbiological world works. He asks the crucial question, "What is the difference between data, code and information?" After giving a proper working definition of each, he uses his I.T. background to show how the natural world cannot write data or code or construct the environment by which information is processed so that protein machines can do their jobs within the cell. Finally he briefly looks at the calibration of the universe to illustrate how everything works together for life to exist on this planet. All of these point to God as the creator and designer behind life and not a set of random events that result from an accidental 'Big Bang' explosion!
