"Life originated in a nebular cloud, over 10 billion years ago,"

Depends on how you define the word "life."
I would not call whatever was floating around in that nebular cloud "life," but rather possible chemical precursors necessary for life.

So far we have no direct evidence of "bugs from space" landing fully formed to colonize and evolve on earth.

We do have lots of physical evidence that life started here in the simplest possible form and slowly, slowly evolved into the more complex.

They forgot to preface the article with once upon a time...

Jason McManus thinks science doesn’t require evidence.

[killermosquito]

TIME + carbon + calcium + oxygen + hydrogen + phosphorus + sugars + and other elements and gases = LIFE

If is it that simple why hasn’t someone re-created it a a lab somewhere?

Science can’t create on purpose what they emphatically believe was created by accident. Who has more faith; the evolutionist or the creationist?

Eureka!! Now we know how the first DNA molecule came into existence, quite by fortuitous accident; or possibly a whole series of fortuitous accidents.

stupidest theory i’ve heard in a long time. complex organic molecules can’t last 5 years in the unprotected radiation of space. they sure as heck won’t last 5 billion years to drift here (and i’m ignoring the fact that we’ve never found anything organic drifting around out there. it would be everywhere if this were how stuff got here).

don’t believe radiation destroys stuff? rubber molecules are large organics. leave a piece in the dessert for 5 years and see what’s left. nothing complex.

truth is, origin of life researchers haven’t a clue how life bean.

All of these "just so" stories avoid the real problem and issue:

WHERE DID THE INFORMATION COME FROM TO MAKE LIFE?

It's not just the materials. They can't self-assemble. The assembly information had to come from somewhere. Where?

The Christian, the Jew, and the Muslim say, "God." If a person disagrees, fine, but at least deal with the issue of bioinformation.
