Life is like a house that would build itself, by itself, starting from its own plan, and furthermore, it would maintain itself automatically. Death is the end of this automatic maintenance and the beginning of the dispersion of the basic materials of which the house is made, finally ending in the destruction of the plan which it had contained. The Great Architects of our universe who have designed the plans of these “houses” designed a type which would be capable one day of matching its creators and becoming architects themselves, by creating other plans able to build “houses” which build themselves, by themselves. This type of superior “house” is Man, who will soon be able to create new synthetic genetic codes, new plans, starting from The living being was created with the ability of situating himself in his own environment through his “perception feelers”, his senses. Humans are nothing more than self-programming, self- toe ae ate reproducing biological computers. There is no difference between humans and highly sophisticated biological computers, such as those we are now able to produce, only our computers are far more perfected and can perform far more accurately than a human. atl 1 : 1 a 1a 1 The computers can be equipped with means enabling them to situate themselves in their own environment. Recently, a computer was equipped with wheels enabling it to move by itself around obstacles, thanks to TV cameras wired to its “brain”. It can “see” exactly as we can with our eyes, and it can move in its environment. A computer only does what it has been programmed for, and so does Man; but let us continue our comparison between Man and the computer. As far as hearing is concerned, it is easy to endow a computer with a microphone that will pick up noise as we do with our ears. It is also possible to give it an analyzer, which will identify the perfumes that surround it, just as we do with our nose. Then it is also possible to give it a taste analyzer that would indicate the taste of various substances as we do with our mouth. 264 INTELLIGENT DESIGN: MESSAGE FROM THE DESIGNERS inanimate matter.
