Terrible news for the Creation Science museum (and Republicans)

The universe is stuff. Life is just as much a possibility as black holes. No difference. The organic/inorganic distinction is arbitrary.

There are a lot of people smarter than you or me who would disagree with that.

The idea that life is emergent from non-life is little different from a religious dogma at this point. Biological life is impossible separate from biological information. That is a fact, actually.

Fundamentally, the origin of life is a problem of the origin of biological information.
 
Some in the scientific community think that life may have originated much more than one time. The early planet was bombarded and there was constant destruction - life could have originated dozens or hundreds of times.

It doesn't have to be some magical, mystical thing. We can't recreate it because the lengths of time for such experimentation are prohibitive, but all life really requires is the ability to replicate.

No. Actually the idea that life and non-life are absolutely distinct is not widely believed in physics.

If life can exist then it was possible at the big bang. The universe itself is evolving.

That’s a bit dated lol.

Do the monkey die every time they type gghhhdesss?

LOL. You were talking about the probability of information developing just right. The probability would be almost zero.

However, with natural selection (yes that also applies to chemicals), patterns start to form.

When you throw many coins into the air multiple times, how often patterns will emerge as they land on the ground?

Now consider this:

That’s my point lol.

Natural selection weeds out the random typers. You’ll end up with lots and lots of dead monkeys before you reach three words that aren’t nonsensical.

LOL. Yeah.

Some people just don't understand the forces that influence the evolution.
 
"To a physicist, life seems little short of miraculous — all those stupid atoms getting together to perform such clever tricks! For centuries, living organisms were regarded as some sort of magic matter. Today, we know that no special “life force” is at work in biology; there is just ordinary matter doing extraordinary things, all the while obeying the familiar laws of physics. What, then, is the secret of life’s remarkable properties?"
