                 by coincidence. These studies, however, were doomed to fail-
                 ure, and Oparin had to make the following confession:
                      Unfortunately, however, the problem of the origin of the
                 cell is perhaps the most obscure point in the whole study of
                 the evolution of organisms. 19
                      Evolutionist followers of Oparin tried to carry out exper-
                 iments 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 pri-
                 mordial Earth's atmosphere in an experiment set-up, and
                 adding energy to the mixture, Miller synthesized several or-
                 ganic molecules (amino acids) present in the structure of pro-
                 teins.
                      Barely a few years had passed before it 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. 20
                      After a long silence, Miller confessed that the atmos-
                 phere medium he used was unrealistic.   21
                      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
                      unsolved problem that we had when we entered the twentieth cen-
                      tury: How did life originate on Earth? 22
