The most detailed 3D reconstruction of a cell ever created.

Blows my mind every time.

But what exactly are we looking at here?

The average human cell contains:

~ 15-20 total distinct organelle types, totalling between ~1-10 million working together per cell.

All these nano-machines in the cell are made up of proteins.

~ 8,000-10,000 distinct types of unique proteins, adding up to between 40 million - 10 trillion total proteins making up all those cellular systems.

~ 10,000 - 15,000 distinct types of RNA shuttling information around the cell, totalling up to ~10 million RNA molecules moving around the cell simultaneously.

~ Billions of Lipid molecules packed together into the cell membrane, which is also packed tightly with millions more protein-based nano-machines.

And let's not forget billions of lines of DNA information to build and run it all.

That's TRILLIONS of of individual molecular pieces working together to make a single cell function.

That means there is more complexity in a single cell than humanity's largest cities.

And people still believe this wasn't Divinely Designed.

This is God's Glory on Display.

But to make the point.

A cell couldn't have evolved from some nebulous simpler "protocell" because even the simplest cells still require massive complexity.

The "simplest" cell ever created was engineered by scientists knocking out pieces of a functional cell until it stopped functioning.

Here is what they found is the absolute necessary minimal requirements of a cell to function:

- Over ~531,000 lines of coded DNA information

- 473 total genes to create hundreds of unique protein products (they later added 19 genes back in because the cell was so weak)

- Hundreds of thousands of total proteins all working together

- Extensive regulatory networks guiding all these interactions

If the cell doesn't have all these systems in place, from the start...
it doesn't live.

Cell rely on an intricate network of complex systems, which are themselves built from complex interconnected pieces woven together into an incomprehensibly complex web of functionilty.

Only intelligence has ever been observed creation vast interconnected systems like this.

Life was clearly Created.

It couldn't happen any other way.

[Divinely Designed @DivinelyDesined]

A single strand of DNA stretched out is ~6.5ft long.

If you stretched out all the DNA in your body end-to-end, it could stretch across the entire solar system, from the Sun to Pluto - seventeen times.

It could wrap around the Earth like a rubber band ball over 2 million times.

The entire world's total digital data could be stored in just 178lbs of DNA.

Imagine, one single DNA server for the entire world, instead of acres of server farms.

If one strand of your DNA was written into books, it would fill about 300 textbooks, at about 500-600 pages per book.

That's 150,000-180,000 pages.

And yet it's packed & organized so efficiently that all of this fits into a microscopic cell nucleus.

In fact, this precise system of organization is necessary for DNA to function.

Without this specialized organizational structure, all your DNA would be a useless mess.

That means DNA can't exist without this organizational structure.

But that structure can't exist without the information found in DNA.

DNA might be the most obvious and undeniable signature of the Divine Design in Life.

This is mind ATP Synthase

The energy pump that powers every cell in every lifeform on Earth, slowed down by over 1,000x.

Without ATP Synthase, life cannot exist.

This little nano-machine is made up of a minimum of 8 distinct proteins, all designed perfectly to fit together and operate in a coordinated system that takes in ADP and turns it into ATP, which the cell uses to power metabolic processes.

It's designed to only allow certain molecules in & out.

Any mistakes, and it could flood the cell with toxic waste in a matter of seconds, killing everything.

Each protein building block must fit perfectly together, much like all the pieces inside your phone.

Without all the proteins fit & working together from the start, ATP Synthase cannot function, and Life cannot exist.

But making things even more complex, ATP Synthase doesn't operate alone.

It's located inside the cell membrane, where it actively works with other molecules to ensure the ATP it creates gets to the right place.

It's a whole integrated network of energy movement within each cell, without which, Life could not exist.

All these pieces must exist together, from the beginning, for Life to be possible.

Which means it can't arise piece by piece through evolution - because the very process of evolution requires the whole system.

Life requires this system in order to produce the energy it needs to replicate & evolve - but replication & evolution is supposed to have created it.

You can't have one without the other.

There are no simpler versions - it's literally all or nothing.

This is clear evidence of an intelligently designed system.

What more evidence do you need?

[Divinely Designed @DivinelyDesined]

The incredible DNA Repair System

DNA - and Life - cannot exist without it.

It requires 6-7 sub-systems working together + a massive complex network of 130–200+ unique proteins.

Simpler versions don't work.

Only Intelligence designs systems like this.

[Rohan Paul @rohanpaul_ai]

Just amazing.

Boston Dynamics released a video of the new production version electric Atlas spinning its body while balancing on its arms.

Note, that little jutter of the hand to keep balance.

[Divinely Designed @DivinelyDesined]

Proof Life was Created.

DNA Replication requires 9 complex nano-machines working together. Without them, DNA can't replicate. If DNA can't replicate, Life can't evolve.

[Divinely Designed @DivinelyDesined]

This is how cells translate raw DNA data into functional proteins, which form the building blocks of all the machines that run your cells.

This is obviously designed, but the details make evolution impossible 👇

[Against Atheism @AgainstAtheismX]

This is a Bacterial Flagellar Motor.

It is 45 Nanometers in diameter. For context, a single hydrogen atom is 0.1 Nanometer.

Atheists expect you to believe this is simply an accident.

I don't have enough faith to be an Atheist.

Bacteria move around using a molecular machine called the flagellar motor that rotates faster than the flywheel of a race car engine and switches directions in an instant. After 50 yrs, scientists have finally figured out how it works. “My lifelong quest is now fulfilled.” Link⤵️

Meet Kinesin, he is working inside you right now.

[Divinely Designed @DivinelyDesined]

This is crazy! This is some of the complex systems working inside your cells.

God's Design inside every single cell in your body.

Cells cannot arise through evolution. The minimum viable cell requires:

- Around ~500,000 lines of coded information (DNA)
- Close to ~500 unique protein products (the building blocks of all those cellular machines and systems)
- Total of ~20k-50k total proteins all working perfectly together
- Around ~30-40 regulatory systems guiding all those interactions

The cell requires all those parts & systems, or it doesn't function.

If we do the math, there are about ~10^70,000 possible interactions in this cell.

Interactions are things like:
- energy production
- waste removal
- protein creation
- system repair

The odds are incomprehensible.

Evolutionists will argue the odds are misleading, because it evolves gradually via step-by-step trial & error.

But the cell REQUIRES a minimum set of parts & systems to function - without all of these in place, together, from the beginning, it dies.

Therefore, the cell cannot evolve through step-by-step evolutionary processes, because there is no reproduction + mutation to drive evolutionary change until the cell is complete.

Cells are a massive problem for Evolutionism, because they are such obvious signs of Intelligent Design.

Even the famous atheist Richard Dawkins admitted that, "Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose."

Biology seems designed because it IS designed.

God's Divine Design becomes more obvious, the closer we look.

How cells turn DNA into functional protein nano-machines.

Another paradox of evolution:
Without protein nano-machines, DNA does nothing itself; it's useless without the proteins necessary for acting on the information.

Only intelligence creates purposeful systems of machines.

This is what designed looks like

God uniquely knits us together in the womb through this process known as DNA replication.

Imagine knowing how this process works and still denying God exists. Atheists are the most foolish people on earth.
