2. The formation of the cell membrane is hardly the
only subject for which evolutionists can provide no
explanation. They allege that the primordial cell mem-
brane formed in the primordial soup, after which mole-
cules in that membrane turned into exceedingly complex
molecules capable of replicating themselves. Yet they do
not explain how that might have happened. Even promi-
nent evolutionists admit that such an evolution is impos-
sible. One of these, Dr. Leslie Orgel, an evolutionary bio-
chemist from the California Salk Institute, says:

Pre-biotic soup is easy to obtain. We must next explain how a
pre-biotic soup of organic molecules, including amino acids
and the organic constituents of nucleotides evolved into a self
replication organism... I must admit that attempts to
reconstruct this evolutionary process are extremely ten-
tative. 84
Each of the structures and organelles that make up
the cell possesses very complex features. The probability
of any one of these emerging by chance is zero. Indeed,
scientists' efforts for decades have all ended in failure.
Not even the smallest component of the cell can be repli-
cated and constructed in the laboratory.

Darwinists' Attempts to Portray the Cell
Membrane as a Simple Structure
Another study that fell into error, an experiment car-
ried out by a group of researchers at NASA's Ames
Research Institute maintained that these structures pos-
