An inventive mechanism (Evolution)

> dhw: The genome is part of the cell.-It is the brains of the cell. -> dhw:Generally the Turell organs work automatically and feed back to the intelligent, inventive mechanism inside the Turell head. Does that make you an automatic factory? The intelligent cell hypothesis does not specify the location of the mechanism, but if you say it's in the genome, that's fine with me.-I don't know about your body, but all of my body and most other folks have an automatically functioning body with the brain that is mostly on its own and highly controlled by ones' self. I can become aware of that autonomous function by voluntarily thinking about it. A single cell in no different. Its production is monitored by feedback mechanisms provided by its genome.-http://www2.uah.es/farmamol/New_Science_Press/nsp-protein-3.pdf
 
> dhw: Cooperation between cells (all hail, Lynn Margulis!) lies at the heart of the hypothesis concerning evolutionary innovations. These can only come about through intelligent communication, cell to cell or genome to genome if you like. Every single one preprogrammed 3.7 billion years ago, or personally manipulated by your God? If not, and since we dismiss random mutations, there has to be an autonomous, intelligent, inventive mechanism guiding the cells. No more fuzz, please!-The fuzz is yours. If cells were not programmed to coooperate there would be no life. Cells cooperate because they are instructed toc do so by their genomes. Starting with one DNA in the zygote, the DNA is modified for varying functions so that kidney cells are not liver cells. The 'autonomous intelligent mechanism guiding the cells' is the genome invented by an autonomous intelligent agent, God! I just puzzle over how He did the speciation issue. The key is in the genome that the animal or plant receives at conception. Variation is inherited from various epigentic alerations made by preceding generations, which does not get us to a mechanism for speciation. And we have agreed Darwin doesn't work.
