I noticed that The Information Enigma video (which Sea Breeze referred to) disagrees with young earth creationism (including the idea of a young biosphere) in a few ways, but that it is in harmony with old earth creationism and an old biosphere. That is because of the following. [Note, that besides watching and listening to the video, one can also read the transcript which is at https://scienceleadstogod.org/information-enigma-where-does-information-come-from/ .]
The Information Enigma says the Cambrian explosion began 530 million years ago and that is lasted for perhaps ten million years (both in agreement with geologists, except that geologists now say it began about 541 million years ago instead of about 530 million years ago). Notice it says the following.
"Until 530 million years ago the oceans of the early Earth were almost completely void of animal life.
Then, within a geologically brief span, of perhaps
ten million years,
the waters were suddenly alive teeming with a riot of complex animals
representing most of the major animal body plans that have ever existed
on our planet, know today as the Cambrian Explosion."
The Information Enigma says that life has been in existence on Earth for at least 3.5 billion years, for it says "Throughout the 3,500 million year history of life on Earth ....".
The science fiction movie called "Mission to Mars" (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission_to_Mars ) teaches intelligent design - by ancient Martians. It says that ancient intelligent technologically advanced Martians (whom the movie says had some anatomical resemblance to modern humans) seeded multi-cellular life onto Earth (and that the Earth already had unicellular life at that time) at the start of the Cambrian period by using some DNA which was based upon that of life on Mars. The movie said such brought about the Cambrian explosion. The movie also teaches evolution for it says (or at least visually represents) that the life on Earth evolved over the ensuing hundreds of millions of years, resulting in the species which exist today on Earth - including humans.
One of the main characters in the movie discovers that there is coded information in a radio signal from a formation located on Mars (that which is called the "Face") and that the code is that of DNA which is entirely the same as human DNA except for not including the last chromosome. As a result, he realizes that some former intelligence on Mars had encoded the radio signal and that it was a message to humans. [The Wikipedia page about the movie says the following. "A projection of a humanoid Martian lifeform reveals that the native
Martians evacuated the planet in spaceships, one of which was sent to
seed Earth with DNA, intending to create life that could one day land on
Mars and be recognized as descendants."] That type of argument is basically the same which Sea Breeze used on page 6 of this topic thread when he said the following.
'For comparison, if you go to the SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) website you'll find the following question:
How do you know if you’ve detected an intelligent, extraterrestrial signal?
Answer? "the existence of coded information on the signal"
So, on one hand, scientific naturalists accept an intelligent
source if they detect even one small coded message from radio waves
emitting from space, But when confronted with the 1,206,980 printed
pages of coded DNA information in the human genome, they say this is
formed by an unintelligent combination of chance and natural selection, which has already been scientifically demonstrated to be impossible.'
I currently intend to make another comment regarding the intelligent design idea of DNA indicating intelligent design.
