God put us here. If He’s put others in other places He hasn’t yet told us about it.

“Typo. Nucleotides.”

Seriously? It’s not a “typo” if they are completely different words. I’m surprised you didn’t blame it on auto-correct.

You also made the same “typo” in post #33, which is why I asked “Are you saying that chromosomes are made up of amino acids or are you talking about the proteins associated with chromosomes?”

Like I said typo. The point was that proteins are required to read DNA and to construct RNA. The RNA then is transcribed to the protein. Which of the 3 came first? Which simple process evolved into a more complex process how did any of it happen before there was even a cell? That’s why I calculated the odds of an average protein happening by chance. To make it easier, RNA and DNA are way too complex.

Earth is just the right distance from sun, too close and we get fried, too far and we freeze to death. Sun is just the right size to give heat without frying life...

That's been called the "Goldilocks" zone.

Seriously, I was already onto the next thought and hadn’t had my coffee.
