I imagine that the methanogens were also alchemists, given that when
they ingest nickel, they transformed it into what, exactly? Gold, perhaps?

This still doesn't answer the age old question as to how life appeared
on Earth and not, let's say, on Mars or Venus. Granted, the
environmental conditions on those planets are much different, but isn't
life supposed to be able to thrive in any environment. Come on now,
there must have been some magical "goo" with the right proportion of
this and that which with the help of an electrical discharge, suddenly
transformed inorganic matter into an extremely complex cell, with
membrane, protoplasm and a few primitive organelles, to boot.

There is science and there is *real* science. This is definitely *not*
real science. OTOH, the evo-terrorists, such as whf3..

well, thank you, thank you...glad to see you're a fan....



whatever (that
can't even write), YeOldAndStupidOne and a few other insignificant
ignoramuses (and I mean this is the nicest way), will jump on this as
further proof that life is an emergent property of matter, but could
only appear on Earth, even though matter as we know it, is also present
on other planets.

the earth was once lifeless. now it has life. so yes, the LOGICAL
conclsuion is that the laws of chemistry do allow, under certain
conditions, the emergence of life

of course, we could fall back on 'god did it'....but that idea has no
explanatory power at all. it was used for earthquakes, disease,
planetary motion....

and it failed every time. always. but creationists are losers, so love
failed ideas.
