THE BLUE ROSE
For over 4,000 years mankind has bred roses. Thousands of varieties were developed with different sizes, fragrances, and colors. Yet one color remained impossible: blue.
The reason is simple. Roses were not created with the genetic instructions needed to produce blue pigment. No amount of breeding or hybridization could change that.
After spending more than $25 million and over 20 years of research, scientists finally produced a blue rose through genetic engineering. The project relied on technology developed by Dr. John Sanford, a Cornell University geneticist and inventor of the biolistic "gene gun." (A Christian scientist btw). Scientists transferred genetic information from another plant into the rose and disabled the rose's normal pigment pathway.
Notice what this means.
A single new flower color required decades of work, millions of dollars, advanced technology, and highly trained scientists deliberately transferring information from one organism to another.
The blue rose did not appear through chance. It was the result of intelligence acting upon existing genetic information.
The genetic code inside even the simplest living things is vastly more complex than the modification required to produce a blue rose. If a team of intelligent scientists was needed to engineer one new flower color, it is difficult to believe the information found throughout all life arose without a Designer.
