    The physics of entropy and the origin of life

    How did complex systems emerge from chaos? Physicist Sean Carroll explains. 6 min — with Sean Carrol How did life on Earth originate? Scientists still aren’t sure, and this remains one of the world’s most fascinating and mind-boggling mysteries. One way of approaching the question is to think...

    The argumentation of modern popular discourse

    For the mods reading though this mentions evolution I only use it as an example. This has to do with argumentation, not necessarily the topic of Creation. For everyone else please forgive my frequent hyperbole. A way in which the world & people operate and those with ignorant, misguided or...

    The Fountain of Life: Scientists Uncover the “Chemistry Behind the Origin of Life”

    Water Droplets Hold the Secret Ingredient for Building Life Purdue University chemists have discovered a mechanism for peptide-forming reactions to occur in water — something that has baffled scientists for decades. “This is essentially the chemistry behind the origin of life,” said Graham...

    Scientists announce a breakthrough in determining life's origin on Earth—and maybe Mars

    Scientists announce a breakthrough | Psyc.org "Scientists at the Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution announced today that ribonucleic acid (RNA), an analog of DNA that was likely the first genetic material for life, spontaneously forms on basalt lava glass. Such glass was abundant on...

    Life arose on hydrogen energy

    Life arose on hydrogen energy "How did the first chemical reactions get started at the origin of life and what was their source of energy? Researchers at the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) have reconstructed the metabolism of the last universal common ancestor, LUCA. They found that...

    Answering a century-old question on the origins of life

    A team of Japanese scientists found the missing link between chemistry and biology in the origins of life. "The missing link isn't a not-yet-discovered fossil, after all. It's a tiny, self-replicating globule called a coacervate droplet, developed by two researchers in Japan to represent the...

    What if there was more than one origin of life?

    From the article If where life spawned from is a question that often keeps you up at night, maybe you ought to look in the mirror — right into your own eyes. How life emerged and evolved is often seen as a road that has gone in one direction for 4 billion years. That might not have actually...

    New Earth Creationism: Using Time Dilation to Reconcile the Biblical and Observed Timescales

    So I am brand new to the forum and I specifically joined so I could test this idea I have been developing for the past year. If I am way off base or if what I am saying sounds ridiculous, please let me know, but I think I may have an answer to why the time scales observable science and the bible...

    Origin of Life

    Since the cells irreducible complexity requires that all its parts be present and functional and properly organised for it to work. Since the probability of such an arrangement emerging by chemical evolution by chance is virtually 0 we have to conclude that it is a product of a Creator. "The...
