A perfect representation of creationist thought

Perry Marshall put up a quick guide to Intelligent Evolution.

His “proof” that DNA was designed by (a) god is simple:

  1. DNA is not just a molecule – it is a coding system with a language & alphabet, and contains a message
  2. All languages, codes and messages come from a mind
  3. Therefore DNA was designed by a Mind

Three lines, three errors.

The first premise is a deeply flawed analogy. The second is not only undemonstrated but also entirely false. The third is therefor unwarranted.
