Was there intelligent design in the recent experiments on artificial life?

[Uncommon Descent] Is Craig Venter's Synthetic Cell Really Life? | Uncommon Descent: This great informative site, Im not a regular but I enjoy myself everytime I pop in, its contributers seem scientifically well-versed Im sure Im dealing with science graduates even scientists Im sure, if so its a wonderful platform to be able to talk to actual scientists its a sereal feeling. That aside have any one of you smart folks heard of T.B.

[Latest Science News Articles] Genome From A Bottle - Science News: Should some brilliant albeit soulless hacker obtain DNA materials and fabricate a computer model for whatever drug addled genetic model a Clive Barker fan dreams up, we will have some bizarre organism which owes more to pop horror than the desire to create clean fuels or cure disease. Imagine a fan of the Klingons (after the change) creating his concept of life.

[Unreasonable Faith] Craig Venter Creates Synthetic Life Form | Unreasonable Faith: Craig Venter, the pioneering US geneticist behind the experiment, said the achievement heralds the dawn of a new era in which new life is made to benefit humanity, starting with bacteria that churn out biofuels, soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and even manufacture vaccines.

The evolution of Venter’s synthetic cells would demonstrate creationism and evolution to be compatible- not a surprising idea, if one takes the careful philosophical approach of Sober.

[Science Media Centre] Buy Antibiotics Without Prescription - Online DrugStore: “The choice of Mycoplasma by the Venter group for genome synthesis and transplantation is based on the small size of the genome and for the mycoides species has a reasonably fast growth rate. The difficulties they report in terms of getting the synthetic genome booted up were due to a single base pair mutation in an essential gene (dnaA) which they noted after several attempts.  Correcting this mutation allowed the synthetic genome to work properly, although its not clear how the mutation occurred –

[Latest Science News Features, Blog Entries, Column Entries, Issues, Articles and Book Reviews] Life From Scratch - Science News: Szostak has a far more fundamental aim: to show how unguided natural events might have led to life on Earth in the first place, and to show how the scenario might also play out in myriad other places in the universe. Like bookends on a long row of volumes, the two exercises would frame the story of evolution so far.

[Technology Review Feed - arXiv blog] Technology Review: Synthetic Genome Reboots Cell: To distinguish their synthetic genome from the naturally occurring version, the researchers encoded a series of watermarks into the sequence. They began by developing a code for writing the English alphabet, as well as punctuation and numbers, into the language of DNA--a decoding key is included in the sequence itself.

[Peer Review on Science Blogs] It's ALIVE! : Pharyngula: It was a large undertaking to assemble the 1 million base pair synthetic chromosome for a mycoplasma. If you're dreaming of using the draft Neandertal sequence to make your own resynthesized caveman, you're going to have to appreciate the fact that that is a job more than three orders of magnitude greater than building a bacterium.

[Science Against Evolution] Creating Life: Synthetic biology and artificial life have been in the news lately. This month we will look at the difference between them, and what implications they have for the theory of evolution. We've been following J. Craig Venter's attempts to “ create life” for a ... that he has shown how life could have begun accidentally. But, if you read past the misleading headlines, you will see his work proves just the opposite. The first line of a blog at Wired.com, written in. 2008 said, ...

The fungus, according to expert microbiologists, who have expressed alarm about the emergence of the strain, is a new genotype of Cryptococcus gatti fungi.
