Our proposal

We try to explain the logic behind the complex molecular mechanisms, wich are the true architects in order to create living beings and regulate their functioning.
We approach different fields of Biology, including Physiology, Ecology, the Theory of the Evolution and the hypotheses about the Origin of Life, assuming the perspective of Molecular Biology, largely the more vertiginously developing biological discipline.
Far from assuming partisanships that would only contribute to increase the actual confussion between political, religious and philosophical issues, we draw away from all that, in order to focus in the paradigmatic aspects involved in actual discussions about Evolution, Intelligent Design and Free Order in Systems at the Edge of Chaos, discussions in which Gould, Kauffman, Goodwin, Margulis, Lovelock, Behe, and many others have participated.
We propose a non-reduccionist perspective considering the Complexity of Life, and avoiding to fall into the deceit of the "badly raised analysis". This deceit claims that to divide a system in its
components it is just like to arrive to its foundations and to go back in time towards the origins of the analyzed system.
We believe that Life is an event with a hidden being, and that Biology is the construction of an endless speech trying to catch that real being which cannot be turned into language.
We are looking for realizing the movement that is drawn between that removed being and the speech that intends to illuminate it.
