You didn't understand the very topic of the posted article. A synthetic replicating bacterium was created. It did not have any ancestors nor did it evolve under natural selection.
If you do not know or understand the nature, the importance of a breakthrough, or how important most publications in Science/Nature are, then do not use idiotic analogies to compare farming to a synthetically created bacterium from human created genomes.
Yeh I don't understand what I've been studying since 1999,,, I am too dumb,,,
That so-called genius synthetically made nucleic acids & then used
GOD made DNA templates on which he assembled those synthetically made nucleic acids,,, so by steeling that
GOD made arrangement of genes of nucleic acid he was able to get DNA strands that were synthetic
copy of GOD-made strands...
Then they used a
GOD-Made E.Coli & yeast's body to get more copies of those strands,,, Then they incorporated those strands into a
hollowed out GOD-Made bacterial body, & hurray it started to replicate,,, So that proves there's NO GOD, because humans can take components of readymade GOD created life & fiddle around a bit & claim it to be 100% made by them,,, & then some atheists-minded jump out of couch at this news that finally they'd be proven right.
Craig Venter's research is scary, but not in the way you think - Telegraph
And yet the reality turns out to be much more prosaic. Dr Venter has created an artificial version of the DNA (b/w u & me;;moulded on GOD-made DNA templates)– the set of chemical instructions which determine what an individual cell will build and reproduce – for a very simple form of bacteria, and has inserted this into a cell from which the original DNA had been removed. The bacterium reproduced itself normally, using Dr Venter's version of the DNA (from which he had removed about 100 genes), eventually creating more than a billion copies.
As Dr Venter's less hysterical colleagues have noted, that is not the same as creating life
OK if u don't like the example of seeds,,, take example of cloning,,, where they steel DNA from a GOD-made cell & take body of another GOD-made cell then insert that stolen DNA into stolen body & then boast around that they have created life... Mr.Craig Venter just added synthetic DNA copied on a GOD-made DNA template into cloning process & is bragging of creating life from "scratch"... How convincing proof of absence of God.
