The probability of an average protein molecule comprising five hundred
                  amino acids being arranged in the correct proportion and sequence in
                 addition to the probability of all of the amino acids it contains being only
                  left-handed and being combined only with peptide bonds is "1" divided
                   by 10950. We can write this number, which is formed by putting 950
                                      zeros after 1, as follows:

                    Looking for Answers to the
                    Generation of Life
                  Well aware of the terrible odds against the possibility of life forming by
                chance, evolutionists were unable to provide a rational explanation for
                their beliefs, so they set about looking for ways to demonstrate that the
                odds were not so unfavourable.
                  They designed a number of laboratory experiments to address the ques-
                tion of how life could generate itself from non-living matter. The best
                known and most respected of these experiments is the one known as the
                "Miller Experiment" or "Urey-Miller Experiment", which was conducted by
                the American researcher Stanley Miller in 1953.
                  With the purpose of proving that amino acids could have come into
                existence by accident, Miller created an atmosphere in his laboratory that
                he assumed would have existed on primordial earth (but which later
