Evolutionary theory is revised nearly as often as Obama’s economic numbers are.

I wish they would stop teaching things they really don’t know.

I have always had very simplistic questions concerning the “primordial soup” theory on the origin of life.

The earth is thought to have been here for billions of years, did life begin in the “primordial soup” just once? Did it happen many times? Did the many occurances happen thousands or millions of years apart?

If life began accidently in the “primordial soup” why cannot scientists who want to believe this make life happen intentionally, on purpose?

My mom used to say, “I don’t care if you crawled out of a scum pond, fell out of the sky, or God blinked His eye and you were here...you still have to clean your room”.

I believe that it was God all along and I have not changed with any of this changing stories. These changing stories are jokes to me.

The team argue that the first donor was hydrogen and the first acceptor was CO2.

So CO2 is our mother. Uh oh, we need to tell Al Gore he's trying to kill our biological mother! Since CO2 was here before man and it was the original mother of all life we should do all we can to create as much CO2 in honor of the life it has given all of us.

Problem with this is that is still fails to account for a lot of the other deficiencies in the oceanic abiogenesis model that pretty much kill it, scientifically.

created by mother Earth ????

They are proposing that the environment was different than the 80 year-old hypothesis, fair enough. But how do they explain the specified information in DNA ?

The odds of creating a 250-protein cell (in theory the smallest number of proteins needed for a single cell) has been estimated at 1:1041,000

For 80 years it has been accepted that early life began in a 'primordial soup' of organic molecules before evolving out of the oceans millions of years later.

Wouldn't that make the theory settled science? Who are these deniers who think they can question settled science?

Seeking the mechanisms that might be behind abiogenesis no more removes God as the ultimate cause of the formation of life than discovering the mechanisms of nuclear fusion removes God as the creator of the Sun.

God called for the Earth and the Seas to bring forth life. Thus the Bible is fully consistent with the possibility that God used rational and physical means, utilizing the laws of nature that God himself created; to create life.

I have never understood the “either God did it by magic or there is no need for God” outlook. To me it is the illogical continuation of the “God of the gaps” philosophy.

“Here we consider how the earliest cells might have harnessed a geochemically created force and then learned to make their own.”

Oh well then, that settles it, simple as can be. Cells pop into existence, find something to eat and go for domestic over imported victuals. Takes a bit cleverness is all.Having sorted all that out what's next? How climate change acted as the tutor?

Angels. Dancing. Pinheads. Quantification.

We'll never EVER know, so one theory is as good as 'nother.

"The likelihood of the formation of life from inanimate matter is one to a number with 40,000 noughts after it... It is big enough to bury Darwin and the whole theory of Evolution. There was no primeval soup, neither on this planet nor on any other, and if the beginnings of life were not random, they must therefore have been the product of purposeful intelligence."

Sir Fred Hoyle
Nature, Nov 12, 1981, p. 148

Well thank you for this post, now that the ‘new’ research has decided to cast off ancient theories. But where oh where will this “NEW” knowledge lead these people.... especially since they can’t theorize on what they cannot see.
