The nature of the language of DNA, the information or data system of the cell, is such that life could never have evolved.
The DNA system is one of awful splendor and marvelous complexity. DNA itself is made up chemically of phosphate and a sugar known as deoxyribose (these form the outside of the DNA double helix shape) plus four "bases:" thymine, adenine, guanine, and cytosine. The bases are the links which hold the helixes together, and which contain the actual code of information. They can be thought of as rungs on a ladder. We shall abbreviate them as T, A, G, and C.
T and A are chemically attracted to each other, as are G and C. However, T will not attract to G, or C to A, etc. This is the basis of how the code may be deciphered by the molecular machines of the cell.
The language of DNA is actually an irreducibly complex system of encrypting, transcribing, deciphering, and re-encoding which could only be invented by a genius of incredible capability.
Amazingly, each of the operations which are performed in the DNA system take only minutes!
Evolution has no answer for the complexity of the wonderful information system of life. One of the two co-discoverers of DNA has actually abandoned "Evolution" per se only to suggest that perhaps DNA evolved on some other planet and was brought here by aliens! This idea of course only shifts the problem somewhere else.
