Did you know that even the ‘simplest’ life forms are jam-packed with biological ‘nanobots’?
From DNA detanglers to rotary and linear motors—these molecular machines are _absolutely fundamental_ to life. If molecular machines didn’t exist, life wouldn’t exist.
So, given that evolution is widely taught as ‘fact’, presumably the origin of these nanomachines can be explained in terms of step-by-step evolutionary processes—right?
Not at all! As plant biologist, Dr Don Batten, explains, biological nanobots clearly point to intelligent design. And that’s not a religious conclusion—it’s simply what the evidence indicates!

20:01 → Precision and design in the bacterial flagellum
23:03 → How could bacterial flagella have evolved?
26:28 Aren’t creationists just using ‘god of the gaps’ to explain these nanomotors?
27:55 *Kinesin:* Amazing linear motors!
28:38 → The function of kinesin motors
