Evolutionist followers of Oparin tried to carry out experiments

to solve this problem. The best known experiment was carried out by
the American chemist Stanley Miller in 1953. Combining the gases he
alleged 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 ex-
periment was very different from the real Earth conditions. 7
After a long silence, Miller confessed that the atmosphere
medium he used was unrealistic. 8

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 arti-
cle 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? 9

The Complex Structure of Life
The primary reason why evolutionists ended up in such a great
impasse regarding the origin of life is that even those living organisms
Darwinists deemed to be the simplest have outstandingly complex
features. The cell of a living thing is more complex than all of our man-

made technological products. Today, even in the most developed lab-
oratories of the world, no single protein of the cell, let alone a living
cell itself, can be produced by bringing organic chemicals together.
The conditions required for the formation of a cell are too great in
