One of our .com friends posted the following in a conversation about groups.

"Consider for a moment: the probability of flipping 5 consecutive heads on a true 50% probability coin are just 3.1%. If you flip a coin and get 5 heads in a row, there's a good chance something in your experiment isn't random. 10 in a row is only a 9 chances in 10,000. That's improbable. Drawing all four kings from a deck of cards is 0.000001515 probability."

In the DNA molecule there are only four "letters" used to form the genetic code. And yet they make up the information which produces all living things. How in the world could random chance produce the first living, reproducing cell? And creationists are accused of using blind faith!
