64. Biblical Texts: Papyri

Papyrus 72 has portions of 1,2 Peter and Jude and is dated 200-400 A.D. Speaking of Jesus, a section of 2 Peter 1:16 reads: epoptai genethentes tes ekeinou megaliotetos “we were eyewitnesses of his grandeur.”

63. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

A-type ATPases are found in single-celled Archaea and some extremophilic bacteria and are rotary engines that use ATP as fuel to pump protons across plasma membranes. The central rotor rotates against a stator apparatus.

DailyEvidence

62. Biblical Texts: New Testament

The New Testament Greek manuscript witnesses are: 141 papyri, 323 majuscules, 3,011 minuscules, 2,484 lectionaries, plus 18,130+ non-Greek manuscripts, and over one million patristic quotations from the late 1st-15th centuries.

61. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

Archaea are single-celled microorganisms that are powered by a rotary motor which generates thrust by rotating a spike like structure. The rotary motor of the bacterial flagellum is different and powers a whip like structure.

60. Intelligent Design: The Moon

Because of the anomalously large mass of the Moon relative to Earth, the rotation axis tilt of the Earth varies by only +/- 1.2 degrees. Also, the Moon is the right size to view a perfect eclipse of the Sun and view its chromosphere.

59. Biblical Texts: Papyri

Papyrus 52 has parts of John 18:31–33 on the recto and 18:37–38 on the verso, and is dated 80 to 150 A.D. The Provenance is Fayum or Oxyrhynchus, Egypt. The book was written sometime between 68 and 96 A.D. by the apostle John, an eyewitness to Jesus.

58. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

V-type ATPases are molecular rotary engines that use ATP as fuel to pump protons across plasma membranes of numerous cell types. V-ATPases have a central rotor that rotates against a surrounding stator apparatus.

57. Intelligent Design: Animal Algorithms

Animals do not make decisions in a conscious manner as humans, but rely on programmed decision algorithms. For foraging, the algorithms account for the most common situations, to make the most risk-averse decisions.

56. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS) are aminoacylation machines which include transcription/translation machinery. The instructions are coded in DNA and executed by protein workers.

55. Intelligent Design: Habitable Zones

The ozone habitable zone of a planet is where an ozone shield can form. Ozone in earth’s stratosphere absorbs up to 99% of life-damaging UV radiation. The troposphere must have 10% of ozone of stratosphere. Other necessities are: 1) quantity of oxygen, 2) just-right UV radiation (star mass and apparent age), and 3) low variability of #2.

54. Intelligent Design: Habitable Zones

To be life-friendly, a parent star temperature needs to be between about 4,600K and 7,100K for the UV habitable zone to be located within the water habitable zone. Over 80 percent of all stars would not have a planet within both zones.

DailyEvidence

53. Intelligent Design: Circumstellar Habitable Zone

Of the 197 rocky exoplanets known, 94.4% orbit their host stars closer than 0.10 AU. If the earth (1.0 AU) was 5% closer to the Sun or 20% farther, it would experience temperatures more similar to Venus or Mars, respectively.

52. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

DNA Polymerase (Gen 1:11-27; 1Ch 16:8). DNA Polymerase is a multiprotein machine that is involved in DNA replication and repair using a template strand. It tethers to DNA and uses a protein-based sliding clamp and then proofreads and fixes mistakes.

DailyEvidence

51. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

The bacterial flagellum is powered by a rotary motor which has a drive shaft, universal joint, rotor, bushings, stator, and a clutch and braking system. It displays a clear top-down design logic with similarity to the most advanced human engineering.

DailyEvidence

50. Intelligent Design: Cosmology (Gen 1:1). Cosmologists have discovered that the universe had a beginning. Physicist and Nobel Laureate Arno Penzias observed, “The best data we have [concerning a beginning] are exactly what I would have predicted, had I nothing to go on but the first five books of Moses, the Psalms, and the Bible as a whole.”

48. Intelligent Design: Physical Parameters

Fine-Tuning of the Cosmological Constant (Isa 44:24). The value is Lambda = 10(-121). This is equivalent to having a blindfolded person floating in free space looking for one marked elementary particle in 10 billion universes our size.

47. Jerahmeel (Jeremiah 36:26). A son of king Jehoiakim of Judah (609-598 BC). A bulla reads: lyrhm’l bn hmlk “Yerahme’el, the king’s son.” Dated by epigraphy to the latter part of the seventh century BC.

46. Intelligent Design: Complex Molecular Machines

F0F1 ATP Synthase (Gen 1:26-27, 18:14; Rev 4:11). ATP Synthase has two rotary motors joined by a stator. The F0 motor is powered by protons and turns the F1 motor.
