"What is the problem of chirality? In our bodies, proteins and DNA possess a unique 3-dimensional shape, and it is because of this 3D shape that the biochemical processes within our bodies work as they do. It is chirality that provides the unique shape for proteins and DNA, and without chirality, the biochemical processes in our bodies would not do their job. In our body, every single amino acid of every protein is found with the same left-handed chirality. Although Miller and Urey formed amino acids in their experiments, all the amino acids that formed lacked chirality. It is a universally accepted fact of chemistry that chirality cannot be created in chemical molecules by a random process. When a random chemical reaction is used to prepare molecules having chirality, there is an equal opportunity to prepare the left-handed isomer as well as the right-handed isomer. It is a scientifically verifiable fact that a random chance process, which forms a chiral product, can only be a 50/50 mixture of the two optical isomers. There are no exceptions. Chirality is a property that only a few scientists would even recognize as a problem. The fact that chirality was missing in those amino acids is not just a problem to be debated, it points to a catastrophic failure that "life" cannot come from chemicals by natural processes." - Evolution Hopes You Don't Know Chemistry -The Problem With Chirality

"...to accept Christ’s righteousness alone, His blood alone for salvation, that is the sum of

"Having passed historic legislation to make American factories the fairest, cleanest, safest and finest place on earth for industrial workers, liberals then turn around and backed free trade agreements that say to U.S. manufacturers: "If you want to get out from under all these liberal laws, if you want to be rid of those demanding U.S. workers and unions, shut down your plant here, lay off your U.S. workers, move to China, make your goods there, and export them, free of charge, back to the USA. Pocket all the money you save and put it into executive bonuses and laugh at us liberals on the slopes of Teluride and Vail." Day of Reckoning - How Hubris, Ideology and Greed Are Tearing America Apart, by Patrick Buchanan
