    Stephen C. Meyer Has published a book called Signature in the cell based on an examination of probability. Based on his work life, could not have arisen by chance, it is impossible.

    The probability of producing a single 150-amino acid functional protein (many are required for a single cell) by chance is about 1 by 10 to 164 (10 followed by 164 zeroes).
    For each functional sequence of 150 amino acids, there are at least 1 by 10 to 164 (10 followed by 164 zeroes) other possible non functional sequences of the same length.
    To have a better than 50-50 chance of producing a single functional protein of this length, a random process would have to generate (or sample) more than one half of the 1 by 10 to 164 of the non-functional sequences, each 150 amino acids long.
    That number exceeds the most optimistic estimate of the probabilistic resources of the entire universe.
    The maximum number of opportunities for that to occur in the history of the universe is about 1 by 10 to 140 (10 followed by 140 zeroes).
    The probability of the chance occurrence of a functioning molecule is one in a trillion trillion.
    A US trillion is million million (1,000,000,000,000)

    A mind was necessary to produce the code for a short piece of protein, one piece.

    So where did the mind come from? A mind was essential to produce the code.

    Note, his interest was in origin of life, not origin of Evolution, which Richard seems obsessed with.
