Is evolution as crooked as Hillary?

No, that was me.

You can look at the codons as letters. Each codon produce a peptide. A series of codons is a gene and produces a polypeptide. So, in comparison, the codons are like letters and the polypeptide is like a word.

So, why are you against the idea that God is using evolution to produce life? You're saying it yourself that the genetic code is intelligent, and we know that it is changing and evolving, so God must be still "creating" by mutating the DNA in virus, potato, corn, mice, rootworm, and more.
On the 7th day God rested from all his work. And in another place Peter says God never went back to work.

I'm not so sure the world is evolving, it just changes. So I don't want to attach God's name to things he didn't say he does.

Google is quite a handy thing
yes it is.
you used it to demonstrate my strawman point.

Good job!

If they could it would look good for evolution theory. Are they still saying men come from apes? It changes as much as Hillarys' stories , it's hard to keep up with.
Actually it wouldn't look good for evolution at all.
But then, if you understood what evolution actually states, you would know that and not look foolish right now.

I know it used to state men came from apes. Hence the Rolling Stones lyrics " I'm a monkey" Monkey man

Lyrics of a song 1925 about evolution. The Bible Is True – Uncle Dave Macon (circa 1925) Evolution teaches… Man came from a monkey! I don’t believe no such a thing… Any more than a week of Sundays! Chorus… For the Bible’s true, yes, I believe it… I’ve seen enough that I can prove it… What you say, what you say… It’s bound to be that way! God made the world… And ev’rything in it… He made man perfect… And the monkey wasn’t in it! What you say, what you say… It’s bound to be that way! I’m no evolutionist… That wants the world to see… Ain’t no man from anywhere born…Can make a monkey out of me! Chorus… God made the world… And ev’rything in it… He made man perfect… And the monkey wasn’t in it! G What you say, what you say… It’s bound to be that way! Chorus… God made the world… And then he made man… Woman for his help mate… Beat that if you can! Chorus… God made the world… And ev’rything in it… Made man perfect… And the monkey wasn’t in it! What you say, what you say… It’s bound to be that way!

Well, for starters, (as this is a very broad topic), I'd focus on DNA.

Now, there is no known observable process by which new genetic information can be added to the genetic code of an organism. So molecules to man doesn't make any scientific sense. How can anything evolve from an amoeba to a man without adding new genetic information?
Genetic evolution isn't additive. Many simple and primitive organisms have huge genomes, much longer than ours. Many complex animals have very short genomes. It's not about accumulating information, it's about rearranging it.
And DNA and even whole genes get added or deleted from genomes all the time.

On the 7th day God rested from all his work. And in another place Peter says God never went back to work.
I rest several times a day, and week, but it doesn't stop me from starting again.

And Peter is the authority of what God does and does do? You believe in Peter's God then, not the God who created the world. For some reason you believe Peter had full insight in all things, and scientists don't, and no one else does or ever have, but Peter must've know all things to know. That makes you a believer in Peter.

I'm not so sure the world is evolving, it just changes. So I don't want to attach God's name to things he didn't say he does.
He? You mean what Peter said, not what God said.

I don't believe in Peter. I believe in the evidence we have of nature. Nature is the testimony of God. Peter is not.

Monkeys and apes are not the same species.

Human and apes are closer relatives than monkeys.

Monkeys have tails. Apes do not.

So your "source" that evolution at one time stated humans came from apes is a song?

And you wonder why you are not taken seriously?

So how old are you? I'm 48 and was around when everybody was looking for the "missing link". Which to my knowledge is actually still missing.
