Lets say we want one protein 100 amino acids long (most are much more, the highest I think is like 27,000 amino acids long). You have 20 different amino acids to choose from. The correct one must be at its spot 100 times. It's like rolling a 20 sided die and getting the same number 100 times. So (1/20)^100 =7.89x 10^-131. This is like one in 10^130 tries. Just to give you an idea of how big this number is, there are thought to be like 10^65 atoms in the universe. This isn't even counting the fact that amino acids form peptide bonds with the help of enzymes in the body, and exist in one of two stereoisomers in nature, yet only one is used in proteins.
So, pulling shit out of your ass is evidence these days? Go read a book, junior.
Everything in there is true. Don't argue with math. It is like the only thing about the world that is unarguable. If you're saying that it is wrong, then you might as well argue that 2+2= -12,113,534
