fyi
“May” is the operative word here. Nonsense, pure nonsense.
God loaded up the comets with seeds of life then aimed carefully and gave them a good shove...
Isn’t this what Francis Crick spent his dotage espousing?
Because we know that a few hydrocarbons always results in life /s
One thing these “ingredients of life” stories never seem to explain is how these “ingredient of life” molecules thrash about at random and just happen to form up in the configuration of even the simplest of single-cell creatures, complete with the means to acquire energy from their environment, somehow magically transitioning from “dead” to “alive”, then acquiring and matabolizing energy, and split to reproduce, with the two halves then growing back to the size their “parent” cell was before the split.

OR NOT.
I hate to say it was God. But it was God. :-)
Always looking for that mysterious “jump start” for life.
It came from comets huh?
Well that solves that irritating problem for Darwin groupies.
Whatever. It just never ends.
It is always nice to see modern science at least admitting that their current speculations about origins doesn’t make much sense.
This latest theory is so much better than the non-scientific theory that aliens visited the earth and left their seed.
“New findings suggest that comets might, indeed, have helped deliver key ingredients of life to Earth and perhaps elsewhere”
Uh, ingredients like, say, fully functioning organisms, and “comets” possibly meaning space-transiting transportation machines operated by sentient beings?
Which is the *active* ingredient? ;-P
There was a cosmic impact: Earth ran into God. :>)
I don’t understand why people assume that scientific observations imply “there is no God”.
We perceive the Universe from a very limited perspective and we still haven’t discovered close to everything within our limitations.
IMO, humanity will eventually SEE everything as randomly created from OUR perspective. We will never find “evidence” of God because it isn’t possible from the perspective we have.
That does not mean God does not exist but we will not have proof either way. Some people will think the a Universe is an accident and some will think a being with rationality placed every atom. We won’t know scientifically which is correct so it will purely come down to faith (faith in random chance vs faith in rational creation).
IMO, the answer goes far beyond anything we can perceive through our current view of reality. Major breakthroughs in understanding consciousness have to occur before we even begin to see the true picture.
