This was something that always baffled and frustrated me in college bio, for which my professor didn't have an answer. "Why does ATP synthase rotate? Wouldn't that cause a loss of energy? What purpose does it serve?". But your explanation cleared that up marvelously after nearly a decade. Thank you.

When you study Electron Transport Chain, 2 forces make that C-Protein rotate. First is the Concentration Gradient, Second is the Electrical Gradient (Negative Inside in the matrix, and positive on the intermembrane). Those 2 forces make the C-Protein rotate just like how Air rotates windmills, and Water rotates motors in dams. In the process they clamp ADP and Phosphate to become ATP. Simple.

well in my book (German version of "Fundamentals of Biochemistry - Life at the Molecular Level. Fith edition" by Donald Voet, Judith G. Voet and Charlotte W. Pratt) the reason for the rotation of the c-ring, im parafracing and translating here, is due to a conformational change in the c subunits caused by binding a proton. And possibly some electrostatic forces.

As an engineer, is amazing watching all the mechanisms in play in life. There are things to learn just for every field of engineering. And in most of the cases, life beats human engineered systems. We can see in biology applications for the following engineering areas (the list can be much longer!): electrical engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, thermodynamics, control systems, communication systems and protocols, artificial intelligence, programming languages (DNA), algorithms, sensors, computer vision, memory management and hierarchy, structural engineering, actuators for both power and finesse, motors, hydraulics, fluid dynamics and piping systems, valves, safety systems, redundancy, cameras, energy production and management, waste management, automatic maintenance, force sensors, digital signal processing, audio processing, natural language processing, and so on. Machines do not appear by accident.

@46l37 And how many years of experience do you have studying the evolution? I'll take a wild guess at the number being "zero". If it actually was intelligent design, would we be seeing incredibly stupid ways evolution had gone to because of heredity? Recurrent laryngeal nerve, for example, or our own spine and thigh joints? Why is RNA used in the rhibosome, when everything else catalyst-related is built out of much more reliable and stable proteins, leading to significantly increased difficulty in assembly and reduced durability of rhibosomes compared to their theoretical protein-based counterparts? Look at how huge it is compared to any purely protein-based enzyme complexes like ATP-synthase, DNA and RNA polymerase, or even the chaperone complex. Yet despite its blatant issues, not only is it the primary protein-assembling enzyme system for all cellular life we know, it's quite possibly the most conservative element of translatable DNA code. How, precisely, is your lack of knowledge in the field of biology allows for such arrogance that you're willing to utterly dismiss some 3.5 billion years of biochemical change before we get to the common ancestors of these molecular systems, or centuries of work done by people before your field of work even appeared with the invention of the transistor, and continually done to this day? Good old Dannig-Krueger strikes again, it would seem, and knowledge from a tangentially related field leads to belief that you somehow know MORE than generations of people who dedicated their entire careers to it. Know what it looks like? Waltzing into an engineering meeting for CPU production, and telling them that they are idiots for working on an x86 processor because it's "CISC". There are *incredible* amounts of utter, *utter* stupidity that got retained in the evolution process simply because there's no Ctrl-Z, on all organisation levels, from molecular to organism. But no, no way these molecular mechanisms could appear in the over 4 *billion years* that life existed for in some form, sure. EDIT: Wrong reply tag.

Foisting these miracles off on supernatural or extra terrestrial intelligence is ridiculous, but it's hard to escape the feeling that there are other vital organizing principles at work here of which we're completely ignorant. The idea of shaking a bag full of gears and springs until a working clock falls out is really not all that far off from what Nature's done here.

It's not really that crazy to imagine. Humans already use evolutionary algorithms in ML and they learn pretty wild stuff. If we imagine that one of the most significant evolutionary pressures would be energy metabolism, then it makes sense that evolution would learn it complex machinery to make it as efficient as it can. There are five million trillion trillion bacteria on Earth right now. In a sense, the nature is running the largest parallel learning algorithm at scales it's hard to even comprehend. Plus, a lot of the stuff we, humans, use is pretty ancient, even our psychology relies on ancient biological machinery. Once a useful building block is found it is used for many things and eventually more complex building blocks are found. This is why we can study facts about human memory on creatures as different from us as fruit flies, or find that c elegans has neurotransmitters like dopamine or serotonin.

"Foisting these miracles off on supernatural or extra terrestrial intelligence is ridiculous." Actually, 'foisting' this on a supernatural intelligence is the simple, occam's razor answer. It takes incredible mental gymnastics (and many years of indoctrination) to so easily credit evolution with this. If you can realistically lay out the step-by-step evolution of such a system (and every other highly complex system), along with reasonable evidence that your 'just-so' stories actually took place, only then can you start to say that evolutionary explanations get anywhere close to being as plausible as supernatural explanations. Paul wrote 2000 years ago that creation makes it obvious that there is a God. 150+ years of mind-blowing scientific discovery could not more powerfully reinforce such a notion.

@@MyLuggage12345 No, it's not. Because then you still have the same problem of apperance of that supernatural intelligence, you just push it on another level. You don't want to believe that biological machinery appeared by itself and want to believe that it was created, yet you believe that God - the thing presumably a lot more complex and powerful that this biological machinery as to be able to create it - appeared out of nowhere by itself. Moreover, if you go the creation route, why not say that there exist a Supergod too, which created God which created the universe? Or Меgagod which created Supergod which created God, which created the universe? This is how spawning unnecessary entities looks like. It's just easier to say that the universe appeared by itself or always existed, than spawning additional entities which would also have to either always exist or appear by themselves.

Whether or not random evolution produced life in all its manifestations, the marvelous thing is not that life appeared, but that life is possible. To expand on this point: the marvelous thing about reality is not its contents, but its inherent (essentially unknown) possibilities. I think that, if there is a God, theologians miss the mark by designating him/her/it as pure actuality. Far greater (infinite?) is pure potentiality, which likely is not constrained by what science presently tells us about the universe. Bottom line: I designate the infinite potential of the universe as God; whether he/she/it is also intelligent as we define the term, and is monitoring and/or directing events, is beyond our ken.

@@jamaly77 First off thank you for giving me the Wikipedia reference to give me something to work off (: not many people cite stuff that's worthy these days lol But to start I'd like to say that hypothetically, if God did make man in his likeness, and then let people procreate for a BOATLOAD of generations after the fall of man, surely in the passing down of genetic information over and over and over and over again, some stuff would mess up.. Everything decays at some rate that is affirmed by science. The fact that we are still able to pop kids out and have them turn into people that can think live and breath like you and me is INCREDIBLE. But as for the arguments from poor design. If you read that again you will notice something that stood out to me immediately.. everything in that is related to humans is either a "rarely" or a "barely" idea The fact that *some* babies need C sections would not prove that birth itself is poorly designed, it would make sense that perfect information has degraded to no longer be as efficient as it was after so many generations of humans infected with sin (please note that's my opinion:) For the wisdom teeth portion, it says in the bible (I have to use this as my source lol but don't discount this soley for that) that people lived to be around 900 years old pre-flood. If that is the case then humans would've had a lot of time to grow and change. If wisdom teeth now cause problems, it doesn't necessarily mean they did for our ancestors. "Barely used nerves and muscles" once again, just because we don't need them now doesn't mean we didn't used to. I mean yeah muscles around the ears probably didn't do too much but I don't think anything 'good' would come out of losing em. The muscles in the foot being useless now could be a product of micro-evolution, (which is a proven force in nature, we have seen it) because of shoes and not needing to chase prey on foot as much. The appendix is a poor argument against creation because you are more susceptible to diseases without it, and we probably used to eat a lot of wild things that could've needed that extra push from the immune system and intestines. But that last bit is just my thought For the argument of our eyes having blood vessels in the front whereas cephalopods have them in the back.. we live on land where the only thing we have to protect our eyes from the sun is the air it has to pass through, if those blood vessels were not there to stop the bulk of the days from hitting our retinas, we would go blind relatively quickly. You don't want a squids eyeball trust me. The whale bones argument about then having vestigal old leg bones from then having used to walk on land, is debunked very quickly when you learn that those bones are there for muscles to connect to, and hold their massive whale cocks when theyre mating lol. They need those bones to have an anchor point for their reproductive system. Why that is still in that wiki idk bc that's a fact jack ;) lol You could argue all day that the body has flaws, mine does, yours does, everyone pretty much does. But I don't see how that would take away from intelligent design. The video you just watched INSANE. Like how does all that work without any of those things having brains. It just does it. It's a machine. And the whole ATP stuff is just a drop in the infinite bucket of incredible things that work together. Watch videos on reproductive systems and on how the atmosphere works and magnetic fields and all that jazz, it's just not logical to think that all came from nothing from nowhere and just kinda happened. Sorry if these ideas and stuff aren't well put together or organized I'm just kinda sitting in bed and typing on my phone but you know how that goes :)
