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.

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-
