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 century:
How did life originate on Earth? 8

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 living organisms
deemed to be the simplest have outstandingly complex structures. The cell
of a living thing is more complex than all of our man-made technological
products. Today, even in the most developed 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 coincidentally, 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
50
practical terms.
The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of a cell and which
stores genetic information, is a magnificent databank. If the information
coded in DNA were written down, it would make a giant library consisting of
an estimated 900 volumes of encyclopedias consisting of 500 pages each.
