Research results are presented that strongly support the Creationist viewpoint. The genetic code, which evolutionists consider to be the highly degenerate product of random mutations, has been shown to function as the blueprint for the three-dimensional structure of proteins. This code is generally accepted to be universal, and the way it is translated into proteins by ribosomes is basically identical from the most "primitive" microorganisms to man. Scientific evidence is reviewed for a se.lf-correcting genetic code which edits out mutational errors under normal conditions. The genetic code has been shown, by scale model building of antigen and antibody reactive sites, to be capable of distinguishing between "self" and "not-self" protein conformations. This demonstrated orderliness in the genetic code indicates that it was formulated as an intelligible code by the Creator.
