(Please, please look; it's very important to what follows. Read the full articles to get the flavor of the subject.)
PROTEINS:
Proteins are biochemical compounds
consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into
a globular or fibrous form in a biologically functional way,
etc, etc.
CARBOHYDRATES:
A carbohydrate is an organic
compound with the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n; that is, consists
only of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, with a hydrogen:oxygen
atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water), etc, etc.
FATS:
Fats consist of a wide group of compounds
that are generally soluble in organic solvents and largely insoluble
in water. Chemically, fats are generally triesters of glycerol and
fatty acids, etc, etc.
What do you see? After reading all of the technical information, which is most likely a brief summary of several college courses, what do you see?
If you really read the material, you see complexity. Monumental complexity. And you haven't even gotten started to learn about metabolism, digestion, elimination, respiration, and hundreds of other biological functions of living beings.
Where did this complexity come from?
It either came from "God", or it came from inorganic elements working on their "built in" desire to combine with their "friends", over eons and eons of time.
OR, maybe some combination of both?
What do you think?
The almost infinite complexity is there - it can't be denied! So, where did it come from?
