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
published in Earth magazine in 1998:
Today as we leave the twentieth century, we still face the biggest un-
solved 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 structures.
The cell of a living thing is more complex than all of our man-made
technological products. Today, even in the most developed laborato-
ries of the world, a living cell cannot be produced by bringing or-
ganic chemicals together.
The conditions required for the formation of a cell are too great in
quantity to be explained away by coincidences. The probability of pro-
teins, the building blocks of a cell, being synthesized coincidentally,
is 1 in 10 950 for an average protein made up of 500 amino acids. In
50
mathematics, a probability smaller than 1 over 10 is considered to be
impossible in practical terms.
The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of a cell and
which stores genetic information, is an incredible databank. If the in-
formation coded in DNA were written down, it would make a giant
library consisting of an estimated 900 volumes of encyclopedias con-
sisting of 500 pages each.
