HOW DID LIFE BEGIN??

Another basic question is how life begin. Here are some related questions.
1. What is the origin of life?
2. How did the membrane of the cell begin?
3. How did the technology and information in cells begin?
4. Could Life begin by chance?
5. Could life self-organize?
6. Is life improbable?
7. Does life end?

“THE ORIGIN OF LIFE ONLY HAD TO HAPPEN ONCE. WE THEREFORE CAN ALLOW IT TO HAVE BEEN AN EXTREMELY IMPROBABLE EVENT, MANY ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE MORE IMPROBABLE THAN MOST PEOPLE REALIZE... ONCE THE INITIAL STROKE OF LUCK HAS BEEN GRANTED... NATURAL SELECTION TAKES OVER.” Richard Dawkmins

Chance, can it explain life as the Atheists claim? Or is the best explanation something else?

You really need to stop attacking atheists. There are theists that do not believe in creation as taught by the bible. This is about science, not religion.

Here is a Nova episode on the issue, enjoy!

Mikeinnaples: You really need to stop attacking atheists. There are theists that do not believe in creation as taught by the bible. This is about science, not religion.



I quoted Dawkins on “chance.” Do you think he is an atheist? Read his quote carefully next time.. Perhaps you think quoting an atheist is an attack? Since I am the one who asked the question, answers from any source are open.

There are many views of what Genesis teaches just as there are many Scientific views. Perhaps you would like the topic on pluralism related to finding truth. http://www.longecity...ue/#entry581614

What Biblical and Scientific views are you talking about? It is both a question of religion and science as to how life begin.. What is the basis for your statement, “This is about science, not religion.” Isn’t this a religious, spirituality section?

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
