lets break it down.

Deoxyribose, which is a sugar derived from ribose (which is basically a carbon-oxygen ring)

Purine/Pyrimidine base, which is another ring with electronegative atoms to induce hydrogen bonding so the double strand can exist stabley (coincidence?)

Phosphodiester backbone, which is very stable and very negative, allowing it to regulated by postive amino acids (argenine & lysine) by condensing and relaxing the DNA. This is BASICALLY how gene expression is regulated... if anyone is more interested i will explain further.... (ever wonder why we all start from one cell, but as we grow our eye cells and our toe nail cells are completely different?)

This is just one example, but a good one to show those who dont know that life is made of chemistry...

Now who would like to tell me that all this just happened because of a huge explosion?
good point, i have wondered this many times, in fact i renounced god a few years ago. but now i realize that organized religion is the problem, i now just try to do the right thing and help others as best as possible. unafilliated faith is what i call it, not sure if im still considered athiest
