Also, if DNA is so well designed, why is it that we need 6 bits (3 base pairs) to encode 20 amino acids? Even with the necessary start and stop codons, you only need 22 of the possible 64 combinations to actually create genes. That's 42 duplicate slots. It would have been far more efficient to use a 3 letter alphabet or a 5 letter alphabet. But I guess God wasn't too good at remedial math. | |||

Actually the 2nd law of thermodynamics could apply quite readily here because this is a system going to cosmos instead of chaos. It was a simple comparison and a thought experiment.
To explain your second part, you have to rememeber they come in pairs for replication purposes. 3 and 5 alphabet would not pair. Furthermore, 4^2 is only 16 amino acids, so it had to be 4^3. A base-6 system would also have duplicates. | ||

We are real intelligence, a lot harder to program than AI. We have checksums inside of our DNA. Jean-Claude Perez discovered an evolutionary mathematical matrix in DNA.
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Perez discovered that the ratio of white letters to black letters is exactly 0.690983, which is (3-Phi)/2. Phi is the number 1.618, the Golden Ratio. When you overlay these 6 symmetries on top of each other, you get a set of mathematical stairs with 32 golden steps. Then an absolutely fascinating geometrical pattern emerges: The Dragon Curve which is well known in fractal geometry. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] There is also evidence of checksums being used in string theory.. In fact one of the algorithms is identical to CRC16 code that a programmer wrote in the 1960's. It is the same checksum used in the TCP internet protocol. http://voices.yahoo.com/computer-cod...50.html?cat=34 "Code that auto corrects itself just blows my mind".

When i first heard about phi some friends told me about it and talked it up to some miracle discovery, once i looked it up i lost all interest and it seemed simple and plain.

Actually IMO... homeostasis, GIA, the human brain, monkly meditation, etc... all proof of self programming. The universe is self ordering it orders itself on a galactic and universal level and a micro level. Everywhere we look we see order. Chaos would be complete fuzzy nothingness. There really is little focus point for white noise in the universe. Even chaotic and gaseous nebulae have clear order and boundaries. | |||
