This is God's Signature on His Special Creation He made in His Own Image. God knew this day would come where man's intelligence would allow him to view the building blocks that make him the way he is, but also knew that man would deny this obvious imprint He made to indicate His Signature on Mankind themselvves.
Man's DNA has a right hand twist while plant/animal is a left hand twist, had this been discovered 50 to 100 years ago it would have made front page news
and said something like:
Scientists Discover God's Signature As Proof Positive Man Is In Fact Created By God Himself.
Whereas these days they are so vain the majority of them in their own minds that something so obvious completely eludes their reasoning abilities.

This again ?! It's the second time this has been said this month! No, the DNA of human beings is not "twisted" in any way different from how it is in animals. The original illustrations for human DNA were in error, and were flipped around. That is all.
People have been looking for something unique about human anatomy for ages. Back in the 19th century, they briefly thought they had found it in a small structure in the brain (the hippocampus), but then they found it in other apes, too. If human DNA was different than other living creatures, they wouldn't be able to splice functioning human genes into other animals - something which has been done frequently by geneticists.
You are either wrong, or deliberately lying. Virtually all DNA coils tot he right, because it is made from left-chiral molecules. Left-coiling DNA has been synthesized, but it is not stable, and no known life forms use it.

Not quite. Most biological DNA is B-DNA, which is a right-handed helix, but this has nothing to do with the chirality of the components. Z-DNA, which has a left-handed helix, is made of the same components and shows up in various less-common biological roles - often by unwinding B-DNA and twisting it the other way. B-DNA gets twisted that way often enough that you and I and Waiting1 all have a bit of Z-DNA in our bodies right now.
I reference Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-DNA#Helix_geometries
@WWWWolf
Is this becoming a meme or something?
That is how creationist likes tend to propagate.
Forgive my lay understanding of this, but isn't it, you know, not true?
How's that bearing false witness thing working out for you?
"Scientists discover gawd's signature as proof positive ....."
I dont get it. I dont see anything in DNA that resembles any signature, or points to any kind of a gawd that made/designed/painted/grew/pulled out of a hat/or anything else that points to a creation of a gawd. How did Waiting 1 come up with such a conclusion? Wishful thinking I suppose.
Oh, and what in that DNA is evidence that such gawd you claim is in fact your christinsane gawd???? Sure it isnt Lord Shiva? Horus? Mithras?
Yes, evidently, my reasoning abilities are eluged by such obvious ties in the evidence.....
God knew that man would deny this obvious imprint He made to indicate His Signature on Mankind themselves.
If He knew that, why didn't He do something more obvious, like appearing on the Six O'Clock News? What kind of sadist would hide bizarre, complicated, vague and unintelligible clues to his existence, then send people to Hell for not believing he exists?
As God's Signature on His Special Creation, I was expecting something more like, "Jehovah Was Here," you know? Something definite , not just a kinky spiral.
"had this been discovered 50 to 100 years ago it would have made front page news"
Try:
"had this been discovered, it would have made news"
Wasn't this on here just a few days ago? Is the "right hand DNA twist" the new creationist straw they're grasping at? You know, they're so desperate for arguments that they either claim that any scientific data which they misunderstand is evidence of biblical creation, or they make up arguments out of thin air. As in this argument, which is totally false, since human DNA has the same twist as all other plant & animal DNA.
Even if we did have DNA that twists the other way, it doesn't prove that biblegod is real. I'd say that it proves that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the real creator of the universe, since rotini also twists to the right.

Here we go again. This is worse than the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics.
Ok, one more time, it just ain't so.
Even if that were true, how does it prove that God exists? How would a Hindu or a Buddhist interpret it, for instance? The most it would prove is that humans are in some ways different from other animals, which we already know.
"Man's DNA has a right hand twist while plant/animal is a left hand twist,"
This is not true, but it completely eludes your reasoning abilities.
God knew this day would come where man's intelligence would allow him to view the building blocks that make him the way he is, but also knew that man would deny this obvious imprint He made to indicate His Signature on Mankind themselvves.
Then God's an even bigger jerk than we all thought, and undeserving of the attention he seems to covet. If God's responsible for rationalists/skeptics being the way they are (and considering his supposed omnipotence and omniscience, he should be), then it's his fault if he doesn't provide evidence that would convince them of his existence. If he's responsible for their unbelief, then they shouldn't be punished for not believing. As John said, making a big public appearance would be infinitely more effective than all the supposed acts of God that happen every day.
"...but also knew that man would deny this obvious imprint He made to indicate His Signature on Mankind themselvves."
So, your point is that you're not a man?
So, chimpanzees and bonobos are both Man? Good to know.
After all, they are both closer to humans, DNA-wise, than to any other creature/plant/fungus on Earth.
Right-hand/left-hand twist? Whut?
As others have written, this just is not true. There is no DNA twist different for humans than in other species. There just isn't.
And by the way, about the rapture thing, wouldn't Jesus have come back by now? I mean, he did say he would come back in the lifetime of his Disciples, didn't he? Or is it just John?
Generations have come and gone and he hasn't returned. Surely someone should have twigged.
No, you poor, hopeless, delusional fundie, he ain't coming back. Gone for good.
Now stop worrying about it, and stop searching the papers and other news for 'signs and portents' until the day you die, unraptured, and get on with your life.
IF it was true, it would be impossible to transfert genes from human genomes to others.
This has been made successfully numerous times. See works about humanized pigs to solve organs shotage, or biotechnological production of synthetic insulin.
Conclusion : you're full of shit, and your argument is invalid. As usual.
If animal/plant DNA ever differed from humans, humans wouldn't be able to recycle the proteins and nucleotides from what they eat and would have died off immediately. In any case, DNA has the ability to make both right-handed and left-handed twists, as it is possible to alter the shape of DNA by changing salt concentrations, pH, etc. But in physiological sense, the configurations must be consistent to actually be used after being consumed.
"His Special Creation He made in His Own Image."
"Whereas these days they are so vain."
Yes, oh Waiting1... it is they who are vain. Surely.
@1354373
Thanks for setting it straight.
Of course, apes, fish, and parakeets have that same Z-DNA occurance for the same reason.
@Jessica
I've always figured Jesus meant or Christians assume he meant "before there are no more Christians".
Just saying. (And, fundies, since I just used logic in your favor, could you please lay off the assumption it is necesary to kill logic to make your points? Thank you.)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
