Alexander I. Oparin is a Russian evolutionist biochemist at
Moscow University and director of Moscow's A. N. Bakh Institute:
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. 114
Loren Eiseley, anthropologist:
To grasp in detail the physio-chemical orga-
nization of the simplest cell is far beyond
our capacity. 115
Prof. Dr. Ali Demirsoy is a biologist at
Hacettepe University:
Ale xan der I. Opa rin
In essence, no satisfactory explanation for
the development of groups of cells with
very different structures and functions has yet been provided. 116
Prof. Dr. Klaus Dose is president of the Johannes Gutenberg
University Biochemistry Institute in Germany:
More than 30 years of experimentation on the origin of life in the fields of
chemical and molecular evolution have led to a better perception of the
immensity of the problem of the origin of life on Earth rather than to its
solution. At present, all discussions on principal theories and experiments
in the field either end in stalemate or in a confession of ignorance. 117
In spite of many attempts, there have been no breakthroughs during the
past 30 years to help to explain the origin of chirality in living cells. 118
Dr. David A. Kaufman of University of Florida:
Evolution lacks a scientifically acceptable explanation of the source of the
precisely planned codes within cells, without which there can be no spe-
cific proteins and hence, no life. 119
Jeffrey Bada is professor of marine chemistry at the San Diego
State University:
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? 120
