Researchers may have solved origin-of-life conundrum

RE: Researchers may have solved origin-of-life conundrum
(March 17, 2015 at 8:37 am)TubbyTubby Wrote: Scientists have long touted their own favorite scenarios for which set of biomolecules formed first. “RNA World” proponents, for example suggest RNA may have been the pioneer; not only is it able to carry genetic information, but it can also serve as a proteinlike chemical catalyst, speeding up certain reactions. Metabolism-first proponents, meanwhile, have argued that simple metal catalysts, as opposed to advanced protein-based enzymes, may have created a soup of organic building blocks that could have given rise to the other biomolecules.

Good answers for sane people.
But too much information for theists.
There's more than one answer here and it takes work to understand. You offer only speculations which will always be open to the absurdist gainsaying question: "Were you there." This, the persistently irrational find compelling. Checkmate atheist.

But cool stuff nevertheless.
Thanks
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
