A medical scientist has claimed that the intricate code embedded in human DNA is compelling evidence that life had an intelligent creator.
Dr Orson Wedgwood, a New Zealand-based healthcare researcher, argues that DNA could not have emerged randomly in puddles or undersea vents on early Earth, calling its spontaneous formation so improbable that it is effectively impossible.
Wedgwood believes the genetic system contains abstract instructions that nature has no known mechanism for creating unaided.
'It's a language, and this does provide evidence for intelligence,' he told the Daily Mail in his first exclusive newspaper interview.
He also pointed to the protective barriers that hold cells together, arguing that explaining their appearance exposes a fundamental gap in accounts of how life began.
