    Propaganda? You think a christian published this? LOL this is actually from a science journal; not some "Christian Propaganda publication"

    So you give up before you've even began? It's funny because that's exactly how I feel about blind evolution.

    yes it's a scientific article from 1964 taken out of context. it's also strictly an attempted refutation of abiogenesis and doesn't even relate to evolved symbiosis.

    Without abiogenesis evolution doesn't even make it off the ground. (If you don't believe it's guided by God or something)

    Okay let's just be "conservative" with this number. How about we make it 10 to the power of 30? Then add billions of different organisms, and give it 1,000,000,000 years to form these billion different possibilities. Cause you know dinosaurs aren't single celled organisms. And we can theorize that there were fish, insects, mammals and other such living organisms.

    Is that mathematically possible?

    i haven't followed your last few posts, but note that evolution (and presumably by extension abiogenesis) was/is not driven by random chance or accident, so any line or reasoning that makes use of bare odds in this way isn't valid.

    Thanks for your input. I see you have no arguments whatsoever, so I suggest you leave and let the grown ups talk.

    This is an interesting debate on evolution. At the 16 minute mark is the actual debate. Before they talked about their credentials, or "get to know the debaters" segment.

    I would like for you to answer his "scientific analogy" on DNA being a program and can only be created by a living organism.
