If evolution was correct, we should have been making life from the basic elements long ago. No life is more complex than we think and it's locks and rules are often much harder and more complex than we think to pick.
This is incorrect. Evolution has only gained *more* solid support every year for the past 100+ years, and that trend shows no signs of reversing.
As we find out more and more about the intricacies of life itself and at the molecular level the theory that we all came into being just by chance is going to get harder and harder to maintain. It is like trying to plug a leak in a crumbling seawall dam.
...and when do you imagine that this will suddenly happen, since the trend to date has been the exact opposite? That is, the more we have learenda bout "the intricacies of life iteself and at the molecular level", there's ever greater support there is for their evolutionary origins?
If evolution was correct, we should have been making life from the basic elements long ago.
Nonsense. Indeed, "if evolution was correct", the production of life would not be a process amenable to straightforward manufacturing techniques.
No life is more complex than we think and it's locks and rules are often much harder and more complex than we think to pick.
So? That's exactly the kind of intertwined complexity that evolutionary processes produce. Your observations are actually a better argument *for* evolution than against it.
If Intelligent Design is correct then we should have been designing and creating life from whatever was at hand long before that. Or aren't we intelligent?
