Since evolu-
tionists still claim
that such a thing can

them perform an ex-
periment. Let them put in a barrel whatever mate-

example, let them pour in the amino acids, pro-
teins, carbons, phosphorus, calcium, and
carotene and everything else that makes up a liv-
ing creature. Then let them apply to the mixture
any external factors they want. For example, let
them apply heat to the barrel, or cool it down,

whatever advanced devices they have. And let
succeeding generations watch over this mixture
for thousands, millions, even billions of years.
And, to leave nothing to coincidence, let
them monitor the mixture the whole
time, keeping one another informed
