Basically, not only must it evolve somewhere stable, some catastrophic event must accelerate it to near light speed without damaging it, and is has to be close enough not to be dispersed into insignificance and/or be precisely aimed in our direction at just the right time in our planet's development. The odds are staggering that a sufficiently complex molecule could be so lucky to beat a homegrown solution.
Hmm.... this from the guy who thinks god played in the dirt.
