They ensure us that they began with an absolutely sterile       environment -- completely devoid of any living thing -- and under       the strictest laboratory conditions they turned it into life...              What would this prove?              No, it wouldn't prove that aabiogenesis happened. It wouldn't prove       that life ever spontaneously formed on earth. Nope. What it would       prove is...              It would prove that CREATIONISM is possible! In fact, it would be       an example of creationism!              If scientists ever coaxed non living material into spontaneously       generating life (something that has never happened) it would be an       example of an intelligence creating life by design.                                          --       https://jtem.tumblr.com/tagged/The%20Book%20of%20JTEM/page/5              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
