I distinctly ordered a Demon; not a GT!

It has become axiomatic that life naturally evolved out of nonliving materials billions of years ago. Given enough time and the chemical opportunity, living cells self-assemble.
However, the experts on the development of complex molecules from simpler ones, the synthetic chemists, do not know how this process actually occurs. There are no known pathways to create the components that make up a living cell from nonliving matter. They have no idea how amino acids (the building blocks of proteins and enzymes), nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA and RNA), saccharides (also called carbohydrates or sugars, the scaffolding for DNA and RNA, energy sources, and much more), and lipids (the main constituents of cell membranes) can be formed naturally on a prebiotic earth, especially before the formation of biological enzymes, to catalyze many of the requisite chemical reactions.
Life arising naturally out of nonliving materials not only cannot be proven, it contradicts synthetic chemistry’s practices, which comprise of very strict purity and environmental controls as well as experimental and sequential methodology—the exact opposite of what happens in nature—because contamination, water, sunlight, oxygen, heat, and impurities all degrade complex molecules or prevent them from forming.

FWIW - I find “bedhead” to be attractive in a woman.

Sagan is dead and now knows the Truth, to his eternal damnation.
He was blinded by his atheism, and misled many, but now he knows better, to his eternal shame.
Yes, pure chance will never create anything, given untold billions of years. It is the fatal flaw of evolution.
I stand with God, and with all those who stand with Him. God bless you.
My name is ELSIE; and I agree with that message.
If we could just channel Brownian motion in the right direction...
Have you considered the fact that the moon is gradually moving away from the earth. Millions of years ago, it would have appeared much larger in the sky. Millions of years in the future, it will appear much smaller. Perfect solar eclipses didn’t happen in the far past and won’t happen in the far future.
How’d we end up with a moon anyway?
Yep, it’s called ‘there’s stuff we still don’t know’.
He; like Nature; abhors a vacuum.
There MUST be a 'theory' for EVERYTHING; even if that means 4-5 of them do not quite fill the bill and conflict with each other.
Job 38 New International Version (NIV)
1 Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said:
2 “Who is this that obscures my plans
with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone—
7 while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels[a] shouted for joy?
31 “Can you bind the chains[b] of the Pleiades?
Can you loosen Orion’s belt?
32 Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons[c]
or lead out the Bear[d] with its cubs?
33 Do you know the laws of the heavens?
Can you set up God’s[e] dominion over the earth?
Actually, this post makes it is evident that as with other accusations of yours in lieu of an argument, this award belongs to you!
Nor is there there any such thing as “luck” in God’s universe, but which use further evidences your watchmaker god which leads to Hell.
Yet despite the worthiness of this rebuke, may God in His mercy grant you repentance unto Life.
Yes, there tends to be competing theories for most things that we don;t understand well enough. People keep investigating, building up knowledge until an answer becomes clearer. If new information or knowledge comes to light in the future that contradicts the original understanding, the theory gets changed.
That’s why we have antibiotics, cancer treatments, spacecraft orbiting distant planets etc. It’s one of the best things about humanity.
Good one.
