"A funny statement, to be sure, and one which creationists endlessly parrot. Unfortunately, the "747 in a junkyard" is invalid as a comparison, as neither a junkyard nor a 747 are biological entities. Biological entities make copies of themselves through reproduction.""Also, whatever the first biological life was, it certainly wasn't as complex as modern life."
Some whould argue that first life was as complicated as a 747. I think that's what the argument is.

Even if that were true, the fact is that 747s do not make imperfect copies of themselves (or copies of themselves at all) and life forms do. That is the fundamental flaw of the analogy, and that is why only the ignorant repeat it as though it has meaning.
