solve this problem. The best known experiment was carried out by the
American chemist Stanley Miller in 1953. Combining the gases he al-
leged to have existed in the primordial Earth's atmosphere in an ex-
periment set-up, and adding energy to the mixture, Miller synthesized
several organic molecules (amino acids) present in the structure of
proteins.
Barely a few years had passed before it was revealed that this ex-
periment, which was then presented as an important step in the name
of evolution, was invalid, for the atmosphere used in the experiment
was very different from the real Earth conditions. 3
After a long silence, Miller confessed that the atmosphere
medium he used was unrealistic. 4
All the evolutionists' efforts throughout the twentieth century to
explain the origin of life ended in failure. The geochemist Jeffrey Bada,
from the San Diego Scripps Institute accepts this fact in an article pub-
lished in Earth magazine in 1998:
Today as we leave the twentieth century, we still face the biggest unsolved
problem that we had when we entered the twentieth century: How did life
originate on Earth? 5

The Complex Structure of Life
The primary reason why the theory of evolution ended up in such
a great impasse regarding the origin of life is that even those living or-
ganisms deemed to be the simplest have incredibly complex struc-
tures. The cell of a living thing is more complex than all of our man-
made technological products. Today, even in the most developed labo-
ratories of the world, a living cell cannot be produced by bringing or-
ganic chemicals together.
