Another thorny question that evolutionists have failed to answer
is: What was the origin of life? How did the first simple form of
life—from which we are all supposed to have descended—come into
existence? Centuries ago, this would not have appeared to be a
problem. Most people then thought that flies could develop from
decaying meat and that a pile of old rags could spontaneously produce
mice. But, more than a hundred years ago, the French chemist Louis
Pasteur clearly demonstrated that life can come only from preexisting
life.

So how do evolutionists explain the source of life?


.......as you say, years ago we understood very little or we got it
wrong.

Given time man may well discover the origin of life, until then we must
use all the indicators we have to show a general direction; and all of
these indicators point in the same direction, they point to evolution.

Only recently a British/Japanese team working in the Pacific Ocean send
a vehicle 1.5 miles to the bottom of the sea. Here next to the hot
spouts [there are many apparently] an entire different life form was
found living off the oxyen and hot bubbly water exiting from below the
ocean bottom. This amply illustrates how life evolves and certaily puts
to rest the silly notion that a god created everything. Including
mosquitos that kill millions of babies evry year.

According to
the most popular theory, a chance combination of chemicals and energy
sparked a spontaneous generation of life millions of years ago. What
about the principle that Pasteur proved? The World Book Encyclopedia
explains: “Pasteur showed that life cannot arise spontaneously under
the chemical and physical conditions present on the earth today.
Billions of years ago, however, the chemical and physical conditions
on the earth were far different”!

Even under far different conditions, though, there is a huge gap
between nonliving matter and the simplest living thing. Michael
Denton, in his book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, says: “Between a
living cell and the most highly ordered non-biological system, such
as a crystal or a snowflake, there is a chasm as vast and absolute as
it is possible to conceive.”


aaaah yes these gaps may not be conceivable to the human mind, but time
means nothing in the universe. how many stars are there estimated now?
i think it runs now into billions.

The idea that nonliving material could
come to life by some haphazard chance is so remote as to be
impossible.


See above. nothing is impossible, given time and our concept of time is
limited

The Bible’s explanation, that ‘life came from life’ in
that life was created by God, is convincingly in harmony with the
facts.
