Not completely wasted.
You'll think twice before you ask for another citation for something that is basic doctrine, won't you?
How is that evidence that random chemicals combined to create life?
It's not my job to second guess you.Maybe you'll think twice and think, "I realise that she's actually asking for evidence, so maybe I should address that instead of playing silly games."
They're the same specific chemical species! They're found on bodies which are physically isolated from Earth. The 'how' is when they fall to earth, are analysed and then found to contain the exact specific set of base chemicals which produce our life functions! The 'how' is inference based on objective test results .. and not on beliefs.Lol, the existence of chemicals in us doesn't tell us how we were created.
That's your personal belief .. and it can be easily shown that:renniks said:What we know is that we are wonderfully complex creations

No submission has ever addressed, let alone answered, any of the questions below, for which the Prize offer was instituted. Most of these Prize-offer questions centered on: “How did inanimate, prebiotic nature prescribe or program the first genome?” (Origin of Life Prize)
Only 13 years? It may take generations. What's the hurry?Lol, the existence of chemicals in us doesn't tell us how we were created. What we know is that we are wonderfully complex creations

So because some chemicals exists they must have randomly created life? But of course we can't even do it now in a controlled environment.Because it shows that the chemicals in question - which include the ones that form the building blocks of our own DNA - can be found almost everywhere in the universe.
You guys crack me up with your belief in miracles. Some random chemicals got together, had a party and poof! Life!They're the same specific chemical species!

That's your personal belief .. and it can be easily shown that:
- it doesn't account for every other human being's beliefs;
- the belief way, doesn't lead to consensus amongst differing beliefs;
- the belief way, ultimately leads to conflict as the only way of resolving them and;
- the victor often pays the price when their particular belief causes their own demise;
- beliefs are therefore a pointless, self-defeating exercise, in a population of 7.9 billion believing, connected humans.

It's being worked on, may even succeed. As I asked before, what's your hurry?So because some chemicals exists they must have randomly created life? But of course we can't even do it now in a controlled environment.
That's an amusing parody, but you are wasting your time arguing against it. Nobody will care if you win.You guys crack me up with your belief in miracles. Some random chemicals got together, had a party and poof! Life!
Noting your phrase "OOL research" has status of OOL guesswork and conjecture and you would be about right. The above is precisely what people believe, mainly to avoid the problem of jumps. But that is all it is: a belief.
But There is still the speciic transition to evolving. Beforethat there is no mechanism for change, so there can only be more of the same. (Just supposing as you do , there is already replication of the more of the same, which is not a given in a complicated structure) .
But here is the philosophical problem in a nutshell: the transition to evolving IS a change in a cell which has no mechanism for change since it is not evolving till it makes the change. . That is a unique step. It is also a big step up in complexity.
Since all of the previous is assumed in conjecture to happen without guidance and by random chance with many other outcomes too, there is also the problem there is not a shred of evidence that there are or have been lesser forms or indeed that the process is still continuing. So there is no actual evidence any of this actually happened only very incomplete arguments for how some of it might have happened.
The day someone gives it a structure and does an experiment that shows how non living became living, I am all ears. Until then it is a serious conceptual problem. I am not actually against it. I am against it being presented as though it were fact, as Dawkins does.
Dawkins seems completely oblivious to his own contradiction and gibberish when he said "we have no evidence about how life started but we know what kind of step it must have been"
Ever since I saw an article in new scientist 50 (yes fifty!!!) years ago about protocel design , I have followed the area with interest. So it is unlikely you will find anything I have not seen before. As you all know I am a read-a-holic and i even get mocked for it!
Dont get me wrong it is a valid and useful area of research, just so long as the conclusions do not race ahead of the evidence.
To follow sagans folly and antithesis of science. "extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence". You can rule abiogenesis out. It clearly is extraordinary!
I can only contrast that status of guessing, with actual forensic evidence that shows recently live cardiac tissue in eucharistic miracles mingled at the edges with bread , that cannot be faked by any mechanism so far proposed, that has far more scientific evidence as an origin of life. I dont need that evidence to be true, but it is next to impossible to falsify. Yet none of you so much as study that evidence.
There is little point in repeating any of this again. The "conjecture" in abiogenesis runs way ahead of the evidence.
How's that research coming along?(And "Origin of Life" is the name used for the research in that field as used by the people who do it.)
Peptides and nucleotides aren't just any old random chemicals.You guys crack me up with your belief in miracles. Some random chemicals got together, had a party and poof! Life!
Why don't you attempt reading the links and the sub-sections I've been posting instead of expecting others to sort out your own ignorance issues?How's that research coming along?
It's all Greek to me.Why don't you attempt reading the links and the sub-sections I've been posting instead of expecting others to sort out your own ignorance issues?
Actually do something about that then, rather than blather on about your completely irrelevant beliefs.It's all Greek to me.
Okay.Slowly, but there's no rush.
You mean my "completely irrelevant belief" that evolution will wax stronger and stronger, culminating in a time where it will be explained so simply a child can understand it?Actually do something about that then, rather than blather on about your completely irrelevant beliefs.
A belief is still a belief .. regardless of it being dressed up to appear like science .. and your self-professed attempts at 'cleverness', mean zip also.You mean my "completely irrelevant belief" that evolution will wax stronger and stronger, culminating in a time where it will be explained so simply a child can understand it?
How's that research coming along?
