The reason I asked this is because the sun gives energy, but this can't produce complex systems, you need that first single system to transform random energy into kinetic energy.wrong. You observe the sun creating complex systems every time a hurricane forms.
Quote:That can be demonstrated I guess there really is no point in asking. The fact that evolution is based on life sprouting from non-life is a fairy tale. Life can only come from life.because you said so? Is that it?E experiments have demonstrated the plausibility of life arising from non-living organic matter. Improbability? Absolutely, but still completely plausible (especially considering the number of planets in the universe and the amount of time the universe has existed)
Quote:Now you might be saying things like, "stupid creationist, so what about his God making Adam and Eve from dirt? That's Abiogenesis!" Adam was not alive until God gave him the breath of life. Life comes from life. He was nothing more than dead meat, a lifeless composition of elements. The 59 elements of the human body can all be found on the earth's crust. And when the body dies, it turns into dirt again. Convenient, huh? Or is that just another one of the millions of "coincidences"?Actually organic life does exactly what is predicted after death, it breaks down into simpler carbon molecules. Oh, and I might mention something that completely destroys your whole argument: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424...41984.html
Scientists have created a synthetic cell. So, no god is needed to "give the breath of life" to organic life forms. All life is simply chemical reactions, no god required
May I mention that abiogenesis is completely different from evolution? Evolution is true whether abiogenesis is or not. You don't need to show the origin of the first cell to know that all living life today share that first cell as a common ancestor.
