Staggering Mathematical Probability of Just One Protein by Chance!

The random creation of even one living protein is so statistically improbable as to be realistically impossible. Dr. Jonathan Sarfati

[GodTheHypothesis]

I don't think any scientists think that the origin of life happened by a freak accident in chemisty where life just emerged. It's more likely that it was a gradual process where certain chemicals had the ability to replicate themselves and a primitve form of natural selection kicked in. The only way to assess the probability of this would be if you knew all of the different possibilities of chemicals behaving in this way- which of course no-one does.

@GodTheHypothesis I'll say no one does. It's because the chance of it is virtually 1 in infinity. You are guessing that "natural selection" operates on non-living chemicals? Life is mind-bogglingly complex - it cannot even be produced by people in modern labs, and the more complicated a chemical is, the more likely it will react/break down. Billions of interacting parts must completely work together in order for life to survive, or it all breaks down at once. You have way more faith than I do!

Note: ScienceWebinarSeries likes to insult everyone who doesn't happen to agree with him. He thinks he's brilliant and claims to be a professor! But he is not - he spends his time monitoring Creation Science channels on YouTube so he can insult creationists. He's some kind of atheist religious priest or something - a big pest to me.

@alyosha24601 Actually if you notice, I was correcting jbooks and and your fallacy, over and over.

And I'll continue to do so as long as you post it.

@DoomsdayWars This guy is a real pest. He never debates science; he just makes claims. He's an immature pest that I wish would go. His wife left him and now he's looking for meaning in life. Go away please!

@GodTheHypothesis LOL!!! Are you serious man!? You evolutionist have a lotta faith! 

[jbooks888]

@ScienceWebinarSeries NO - I mean what established the conditions for all this to happen. What enables covalence? Oh my you really are slow.

[ScienceWebinarSeries]

@jbooks888 I already have, proteins don't form by chance.
