                 was revealed that this experiment, which was then presented as an
                 important step in the name of evolution, was invalid, for the atmos-
                 phere used in the experiment was very different from the real Earth
                 conditions. 3
                      After a long silence, Miller confessed that the atmosphere medi-
                 um 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 ar-
                 ticle published 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 cen-
                      tury: 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 liv-
                 ing organisms 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 devel-
                 oped laboratories of the world, a living cell cannot be produced by
                 bringing organic 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
                 proteins, the building blocks of a cell, being synthesized coinciden-
                 tally, is 1 in 10 950  for an average protein made up of 500 amino acids.
                                                                   50
                 In 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-
