The origin of DNA
"Cells and organisms are also formed fife support systems. The basic component of any informed system is its plan. Here, argues the creationist, an impenetrable circle excludes the evolutionist. Any attempt to form a model or theory of the evolution of the genetic code is futile because the code is without function unless, and until, it is translated i.e unless it leads to the synthesis of protein. But the machinery by which the cell translates the code consist of about seventy components which are themselves the product of the code" - Michael Pittman [Adam and Evolution 1984 pg. 147]

Who is Michael Pittman and why should we give any credence to his statement in his thirteen year old book? For all I know he may be a retired carnival barker who would not know DNA from a tadpole.

Interesting that, "several other experts", all unnamed and unlinked, agree. You would have more creditability if we knew who they were and could read what they have stated, in there own words.

A biology instructor at Cambridge who echoes what several other experts also acknowledge so zeroing in on him won't help you.
Nice try!

Debunk evolution?
Ever heard of Intelligent Design? This is a theory that some scientists have come up with.
It pretty much says that an organism's complexity is evidence that there is a cosmic designer.
For example- the human body is so complex that there had to be a higher force or being to create it.
I do not believe in evolution. I do not think I evolved from a primate or any other thing scientists try say.
Evolution, has NOT been proven either. That is why it is a theory. An idea, a guess.
Therefore you cannot disprove something that is not proven fact.

no scientists have come up with intelligent design, name ONE with a degree at a respected university and i will concede... just one..

Since you asked for a name I will supply you with one that meets the criteria you established.
Michael J. Behe (born January 18, 1952, in Altoona, Pennsylvania) is an American biochemist and intelligent design advocate. Behe is professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania and a senior fellow of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture. He advocates the idea that some structures are too complex at the biochemical level to be adequately explained as a result of evolutionary mechanisms. He has termed this concept "irreducible complexity".

Behes work has already been debunked

Miracles can't be explained with evolution, but everything else relies on it.
