further to my previous question on evolution?

Question

So life developed from originally single celled organisms.
But where did those single cells come from?
A single cell is a complex biological machine not something simple as just a few chemicals thrown together and a bit of lightening. A cell is constructed with delicate engineering and components that are required to make a cell live and function, something that man has failed to reproduce in the laboratory other than lifeless slime.
So where did the first cell come from and not only appear but duplicate.

So far the first 10 answers fail to produce any real answers. Why is such a fundimental question hated when asked?

jedi1josh, but am I supposed to believe a machine as complex as a human brain come out of this? Takes faith.

gino_ggg too easy but you gave no intellectual answer to the question.

devlsadvo... what's up question too hard for you?

Answer 1

There are two basic laws of science that can help give some support to a creation theory. These are not an attempt to disprove evolution but to PROVE creationism through modern scientific laws that everyone agrees on.

1. Nothing comes from nothing. We know that there always has to be something to create something else. This is a fact. So for evolution to hold up (without a creator), in theory, there had to be something in the beginning. But because we know that in order to create a protein, or single-celled organism, or any miniscule element, you have to have some other material, it is a circular argument that shows that there had to be a beginning, hence the existence of a God.

2. One of Newton's laws is that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means if there is no force to act upon something, then nothing can happen to it. If you strip evolution down to it's core beginning, there had to be more than one element involved. So one single item would not evolve, but just sit there because there was no other force available. Because we know that life exists, then we have have to assume, by hypothesis, and with reasonable assumption, that a force acted upon an element to create life. This does not disprove evolution as this could be used as a theory for creation through evolution. It just proves there is a God.

Answer 2

Evolution theory says the first cells developed from self-replicating molecules. These self-replicating molecules only need a method of preserving their chemical structure, and the ones with the best chemical structures and methods of self-replication won out over lesser ones. So, the principle of natural selection guaranteed that over time increasingly stable and complex molecules would form and eventually become simple prokaryotic cells that are little more than genetic material, cytoplasm, a cell membrane and wall. Remember that the ingredients that make up humans are fairly common elements in the world, so it's not a stretch to say that inorganic molecules became organic molecules, and eventually cells in the past. Some famous experiments have been successful in producing self-replicating molecules that exhibit qualities found in cells.

Answer 3

Life began not as single-celled organisms, but as RNA, a protein molecule that developed the ability to duplicate itself. Over time, it also developed into a slightly different protein compound called DNA. (However, many viruses contain genetic material based on RNA.) RNA and DNA continue to be the central gene-bearing chemicals that exist in the cells of a nucleus.

Over millions of years, these proteins developed structures around them that then required maintenance. The evolutionary process led to some of them succeeding and most failing. But only after millions of years did the structures take on characteristics that we today would recognize as cells.

Anyone truly interested in the process for evolution should try listening to the Evolution 101 podcasts of Dr. Zachary Moore. It's very informative, and he'll answer your questions, too. Here's the web site:

Answer 4

You are asking about abiogenesis. I have never studied this field, but my understanding is that single cells were not the first life. The first life was naked molecules that could replicate along the same lines as DNA/RNA. These molecules didn't have cell walls, so would have been more fragile than later molecules had codings for proteins that provide a layer of protection.

Answer 5

ok... all cells duplicate. everyone of them do. and the only reason mankind cant make a live cell is because.... UH DUR!!!... we r not that advanced in technology and probably never will be. how can we get something small enough to move, place, and keep in a substainable enviroment without it dieing or being crushed or destroyed in the process?? this is all just by a happens of luck and that person who talked about milk and eating u is just a f.ag who wont admit the truth even though it is right in front of her face... just like 7/8 of the world.

Answer 6

This is too easy.

You are attempting to prove creation by discrediting or disproving evolution.

OK then, which version of creation is correct:

Christian?
Muslim?
Hindu?
Ralien Cult? (people who think space aliens genetically engineered us)
Followers of RAH, the sun god?

....OR the THOUSANDS of other creation stories?
Even if you could disprove evolution, what evidence can you provide that PROVES YOUR version of creation is the RIGHT version?

OHHHH, that's right.....you have NO EVIDENCE to support your theory. Let me guess, you are a christian, right?

***No intellectual answer? Please answer this question:
How do YOU think we got here?
Let me guess: An old man in the sky made the 1st man from dust, the first woman from a rib-bone, a talking snake and a tree that produces magic apples??????
Is that your "intellectual" answer to how life began?
schmuck.

Answer 7

I reccomend the book Darwin on Trial. It's a look at the theory of Evolution if it were made in a courtroom and how well it makes its case, how good the evidence is. Hope that helps!

Answer 8

perhaps if fell from space on a meteorite or comet. Who knows. there is some theory that life started when certain amnio acids joined and were struck by lightening. Electricity can start a stopped heart, so, maybe its possible.

Answer 9

Your entire description makes an a priori asumption that we are all designer wet wear. Let's cut past the bullshit skippy. Where did your designer come from and who designed it? Wouldn't the designer be more complex still?

Answer 10

It can't, how can a non living cell become a living cell without some type of great divine intervention. IMPOSSIBLE
