The Miller experiment was totally disproven, it in no way simulated the situation on earth - and that is why the atheists took it into space. If there had indeed been an asteroid that had all those amino acids - as you say one was found in 1969 - there would have been no need for this experiment, so that asteroid stuff was garbage or a total lie - just like three or four years ago they said they had proof of life from a Martian asteroid. Big headline disproven a year later - very, very quietly.

How dumb can you get? Even allowing that this is you . . .
Your chronology is all messed up. The Miller experiment of the early 50s retains its importance. A meteorite strike in 1969 isn't going to call off an experiment that had been completed 15 years before in any event.
The point of both lines of evidence, terrestrial and extra-terrestrial amino acid synthesis, is that the imagined shortage of organics on the early earth is just that--imagined.
