Abiogenesis is impossible

You have to use smaller words Iatia, you say osmosis and Snow's head might fucking explode.

-Salt, Snow, all you need is salt to "regulate" what enters and exits a cell (you can use almost anything - but relative salinity will give you one of the more pronounced effects...which probably explains why it's so prevalent in living creatures - its how plants, for example: "pull water"). This takes neither planning nor a fancy membrane. Gratz on this thread though, you've managed to erect a colossal monument to ignorance. I hope you never let it die.

"This takes neither planning nor a fancy membrane.' poor guy, suffering from a bad case of naiveté. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cell_m..._edit2.svg
but back to the original statement: that the cell and the cell membrane couldn't have evolved separately since the cell would need protection, and the cell membrane would serve no purpose without the cell, and would need the cell for it's construction. No one on this board could show science (which I know everyone on this board is so extremely infatuated with) could present how this is possible without preplanning. duel simultaneous evolution, really? so after this duet, the cell finds an opening the cell membrane, closes the opening and says we're 'good to go'.

Lets just put this to rest for fuck sakes... it only took me about i dunno 5 seconds to find this.
