David: Comment: The proteasome protects itself from self-degradation and is specialized for different organ functions and for different immunologic activities. No cell can operate without this organelle. The original cells at the start of life had to have a portion of it that maintained this action. Only design can provide all the interactive parts of the original cells. The complexity shows this.

It is important to recognize that the original cells of early life had to be complete units. How would a simple partial cell work? Could one even exist? We really have no experience with that. Viruses are close but they are set up to manage their affairs until they invade a fully living cell to take over the replication part of DNA and reproduce. This means my point above must be taken seriously. The first cells that maintained life after it started were complete units with completely integrated organelles that were protected against mistakes and had controls managed by feedback loops. They were run by a DNA code which rivals any code invented by humans. It is more than reasonable to conclude that only design by a planning mind is the source of the beginning of life.
