The Deception of Evolution
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. 2
Evolutionist followers of Oparin tried to carry out experi-
ments 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 primordi-
al Earth's atmosphere in an experiment set-up, and adding ener-
gy to the mixture, Miller synthesized several organic molecules
(amino acids) present in the structure of proteins.
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 atmosphere used
in the experiment was very different from the real Earth condi-
tions. 3
After a long silence, Miller confessed that the atmosphere
medium he used was unrealistic. 4
All the evolutionists' efforts throughout the twentieth cen-
tury 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? 5
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
