The Earth's Early Atmosphere
It may also interest you to know about a kind of
experiment first performed by the chemist Stanley
Miller (and since performed by many others) in which
a mixture of the gases resembling the Earth's early
atmosphere (water, hydrogen, methane, ammonia, a
little hydrogen sulfide) are exposed to electric
SO??? It proves nothing because achieving this sort of accomplishment
in the lab under carefully designed and controlled conditions, and having the
exact same thing (actually something more complex which would include DNA)
occur in an open system apart from any directing intelligence, are two
entirely different things.
There are a number of serious objections to the Miller-Ulrey chemical
experiment, which render the model suspect.
1. The concentrations of methane and ammonia were carefully selected to insure
the production of organic molecules. There is no evidence to suggest that the
earth's "primitive" atmosphere was so characterized. -R.L. Wysong
2.There is no evidence to indicate that the earths early atmosphere was
reducing. There is , however, considerable evidence to suggest that the earth
had an oxidizing atmosphere over most, if not all, of history. -Wilder-Smith,
A.E.
3. A methane-ammonia reducing atmosphere would be fatal to life forms. R. L.
Wysong.
4. The simulation of lightning by mild spark discharges is unrealistic.
Actual lightning would have destroyed any organics which may have been
present.
5. The molecules produced in the Miller-Urey apparatus would react
detrimentally to life forms which allegedly were trying to evolve.
Chemically, they would destroy all hope of producing life. PArker, Gary.
The fact that it takes the world's greatest intellects utilizing the most
advanced technology to barely unravel the most basic secrets of life only
serves to indicate the necessity for intelligence in the beginning.
Man's childish attempts to create life are completely futile. In fact, even
if scientists were able to produce all of the necessary chemicals in the
required relationships, life still would not result. Anyone who would like to
verify that statement has only to try and raise the dead. The dead already
contain the complex ingredients scientists are attempting to generate (cells,
DNA, enzymes, and so on).
R. L. Wysong:
"Is not the hope to produce life by arriving at proper chemicals and
chemical relationships in experiments a rather bizarre aspiration? It is
futile. The trillions of organisms that die and have remained dead stand as
solemn proof that life is a unique supernatural quality not reproducible by
the puny efforts of men wistfully reaching like moths for the stars."
"In the beginning God Created....."
If God is your creator, He's then your Lord and Master. Evolutionist
don't want to give up being their own lord and master.
