... you can buy all the components of a human -- junk -- in any market with a child's allowance?
Here's what I'm talking about... the ingredients for a human! :
Water: 35 liters
Carbon: 25 kilograms
Ammonia: 4 liters
Lime: 1.5 kilograms
Phosphorus: 800 grmas
Salt: 250 grams
Saltpeter: 100 grams
Sulfur: 80 grams
Fluorine: 7.5 grams
Iron: 5 grams
Silicon: 3 grams
And 15 other elements in smaller quantities.

The ingredients for a human???? What are you, 13?
There's much more to us than the 11 things you listed, and the "15 other elements in smaller quantities."

That's not impressive at all...
Get yourself some metal, a few magnets, plastic, sand, silicone, etc. The ingredients are fairly easy to find, but now put them together and create a computer monitor (yeah sand... to make the glass)... I'm waiting... It's possible, but requires a great deal of precision and special equipment.
In this case we're talking about a human. I dare you to take the ingredients you've listed and make a human with it, or find someone who can. You won't find anyone (except for a mother giving birth naturally). That is the miracle of life.

Sure, those are the ingredients, but lets see you put them together to create a human being with an intellect and feelings. Trust me, there is much more to a human than just the chemicals that make up their body. There are parts that we have come nowhere close to understanding that oyu would have to create yourself. I agree with the first answer, you have been watching too much Full-Metal Alchemist. Trust me, no Humankulus coming from that mixture.

o_o Broken down, people are made of common stuff. It'd be harder if our chemistry used rare elements, like iridium, praseodymium, samarium, and such. It's the arrangement that makes all the difference, and so far, only the Maker (if there is one), and a mother and father (or sperm donor) are able to work that magic and turn that child's allowance into a child, just as an artist can turn a set of isolated paints, brushes, and a canvas into a work of art.

I think it's a sign that all things were created by ONE God. He delicately combines the elements of the world that He created to form the beautiful miracle that we call LIFE! I'd like to see an atheist try to take the raw elements and make a person out of them. Even with the "all-knowing human brain", we are not capable of creating such delicate works. Face it, we couldn't have been created by accident nor evolution!

Well ,It makes me think of how God could put all these common things together and come up with a human being. It also makes me think that you can get all these ingredients ,but something is missing and that something is what makes us alive. What could that missing ingredient be???
