The handedness of life - with Jack Szostak

[happinesson]

collaboration of research of interest could lead to a breakthrough!

At first I read it as the hardness of life. Haha..Anyway I like the video.

[Tulip12ILY]

this really helped me on my research thanks!

Why did she wear topless? I was distracted all the video.

This meteorite hypothesis merely transfers the same questions to another planet or something external to the earth. It still does not resolve the question of homochirlaity and even if the ratio of L forms of amino acids were even as high as 70-30%, it would still not be sufficient to produce even one complex protein. What is needed here is critical thinking, as well as understanding the likelihood of there being more negative chemical reactions in primordial earth than positive, is overwhelming.

@benthemiester These are just more assumptions by atheist scientists. racemic mixtures is not usable information, chirality has not been solved.panspermia is ridiculous nonsense.and not science..

[benthemiester]

@5tonyvvvv Yeah I agree, Even Szostac has short video on the subject of handedness but its not very popular among some crowds. At least he is honest enough to bring it up when so many others ignore this problem.

@benthemiester and these genes and "This engineered RNA" would break down do to the unstable conditions of it..similar to rats leaving a sinking ship..This artificial RNA..has ZERO chance of further evolving into a living cell.

Activated subunits are used along with templates taken from living sources..its not a geochemical relevant reaction.Intelligence created life not time and chance..amino acids never self assemble ever!!!

@5tonyvvvv 'This engineered RNA" would break down do to the unstable conditions of it

I've come to realize that you have no idea what you're copying and pasting. Not understanding micelle membrane permeation is still not an argument.

[zenithar6666]

very good point, thsi seesm a real issue

[zenithar6666]

good point about the negative reactions! I just read..RNA world: a critique, and that was the jist of their very well thought out argument.

[benthemiester]

@zenithar6666 The first time I heard this argument was from an interview with Charles Thaxton. It made perfect sense, and yet this is one of the least spoken about on the subject of OOL/ origin of life, and I am not anti science.

I'm just pro critical thinking.

[zenithar6666]

im glad you can thik for youself instead of merely swallowing teh party line, thanks for the info!

[omiolo]

what an exciting experience for her. Glad they were able to share it. I didn't know that information about the meteorite.
