The Complexity of Life Hemoglobin
The protein, hemoglobin, is an essential component of humans and other vertebrates. Contained in red blood cells, hemoglobin serves as the oxygen-carrier in blood. Each human has over 60 octillion (60,000,000,000,000,000,000) hemoglobin molecules. Each hemoglobin molecule is made up of two twisted chains of 574 amino acids each linked together in a specific order. There are thousands of different types of amino acids, however, only 20 of these types of amino acids are used in living organisms. This means that only these 20 are used in making hemoglobin and each amino acid must be linked up in the right order.
Trains and Things that Link Together
If we were to take two railroad trains of 574 cars each, with 20 different colors of cars, we would have a picture of hemoglobin. In order to link the cars of the train in the proper order, we have to choose the correct color car for each position. Since there are 20 different colors of cars, this means for the first position there are 20 different choices. To properly link the first two cars, we must select from 20 different color choices for each of the two cars. 20 possible colors for the first car and 20 possible colors for the second car 20 times 20, or 400 possible color combinations just to properly link the first two cars. If we were to link up the first three cars we would have 8,000 different combinations, 20 choices for each of the three cars (20 times 20 times 20). This can also be written as 20 to the 3rd power (20 multiplied by 20 for 3 times).
Hemoglobin has 574 'cars' or 20 raised to the 574th power (20 to the 574th power of possible combinations). How long would it take to assemble a train, with the colored cars in the correct order, with this many possible combinations? If you were able to do one combination every second of your life, you would run out of time. If you were able to try one combination for every second of the estimated age of the universe (15 billion years or about 10 to the 18th power seconds), you would still run out of time. There is not enough time in the estimated age of the universe to try even a small fraction of the possible combinations. It would take over a quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000) years of trying a combination every second and still there would not be enough time to try all the possible combinations. How could this have happened in less than 4 billion years without the help of an intelligent designer?
"For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:11
The U.S. Supreme Court in Torcaso v. Watkins, 81 S.Ct. 1681 (1961) makes the following statement: "Among religions in this country which do not teach what would generally be considered a belief in the existence of God, are Buddhism, Taoism, Ethical Culture, Secular Humanism and others." Since the U.S. Supreme Court has named secular humanism as a religion, and since the two tenets above come from the humanist manifesto, one can conclude that by teaching evolutionism (or at least the part of evolutionism that says that the universe is "self existing and not created", and that man "has emerged as a result of a continuous process") a teacher is, in fact, teaching a religion. The humanists are the loudest criers of the notion of separation of church and state and that anything religious may not be taught in the government schools. Therefore, this could lead to the idea that evolution must not be taught in the government schools, since it is religion (according to the U.S. Supreme Court).
