@Brandon9000,
Quote:I have never once referred to any genetic code whatsoever. You are utterly misrepresenting a position I have stated clearly. I am talking only about a molecule that copies itself and nothing more.
DNA is not a molecule, it is, for a human genome (23 chromosomes) is estimated to be about 3.2 billion base pairs long and to contain 20,000–25,000 distinct protein-coding genes.
H2O, is a molecule, it consist of 2 H atoms to one O atom, calling DNA a molecule is irrational. Human DNA can not exist without billions of combinations, all in perfect order, thus is not a molecule.
