More Cluelessness at The Skeptical Zone- Richard Saunders is just dumb

 -

Seriously, what the fuck, Richard?

Similarly, when people with backgrounds in computer science look at genetic codes, they see a code in the same sense that computer languages are codes. Whereas molecular biologists see “the genetic code” as a metaphor for chemical affinity between nucleotide sequences and amino acid chains.

Only the willfully ignorant say it is a metaphor, though. There isn't any chemical affinity between nucleotide sequences and amino acid chains. mRNA codons REPRESENT amino acids. That is the epitome of a code. Even Larry Moran says the genetic code is a real code in the same sense as Morse.

Even Richard Dawkins gave us:

The machine code of the genes is uncannily computer-like. Apart from differences in jargon, the pages of a molecular biology journal might be interchanged with those of a computer engineering journal.

Saunders doesn't understand biology.

Next, he spews:

For me, organisms don’t appear to be designed because they are heterogeneous: no two individuals of any species are exactly alike. Whereas manufactured things are overwhelmingly homogeneous — and they become more homogeneous as manufacturing processes become more controlled over time.

That has to be the stupidest form of denialism. Manufactured things evolve, as in they change over time. The cars of today do not resemble the original cars, for example. The computers of today do not resemble the earliest computers. So, what the fuck is this clueless twit rambling about?
