As I say, some of us were there. Nevermind that there is controversy about such basic things as the origin of the moon, and nevermind that we are just beginning to study deep earth life forms: eyewitness testimony trumps science.
And yes, we still can't make life. And fifty-five years ago we couldn't modify the genome. What's your point?
My point is that your just so stories are just so. And fifty-five years ago we didn't have cell phones, but cell phones were not made by throwing chemicals in an ocean and waiting for a result.
