Athiests, would you please tell me where life came from?

Answer 1

Listen dude, I believe in God, and you need to stop bashing atheists. Why do you think they hate you?

Answer 2

I am about to give you the most honest answer you're going to get to this question.

I DO NOT KNOW AND NEITHER DO YOU, whether you want to believe you do or not. Words written in a book do not constitute real proof of anything and anyone out of grade school should know that. Likewise, scientific theories are constantly changing and being modified, so buying into them hook, line and sinker is also not very wise. If you believe in Creationism, then you are no different than those who believe in evolution. Believing is not the same as "knowing". Until someone can show me a video of God making people out of mud pies or a blob of gunk all of a sudden turning into an organism, I think I'll just live my life and leave this senseless debate to those who are foolish enough to think they have the answers at this time.

Answer 3

I am an athiest. The answer is beyond my comprehension. I'm grateful for my life, but to prove or disprove exactly where life comes from is just as impossible as proving or disproving the existance of god.

Answer 4

I have a no idea - not my field of study. However I'm perfectly comfortable with not knowing since I appreciate that it's either due to A) my own ignorance or B) we (the human race) haven't figured it out yet.

if we left it up to you believers we'd still be treating epilepsy with exorcism.

To quote the wonderful Eddie Izzard:
"If there are a few holes in your theory, you don't therefore go 'fcuking magic'".

Answer 5

Complex carbon molecules that began to replicate themselves.

As this proccess continued to become more elaborate, the proteins evolved, followed by the double helix.

The rest is history.

While that's a fairly simplistic explanation, I don't have a phd in molecular biology.

It certainly makes more sense than a sky daddy.

Answer 6

All EVIDENCE points to the fact that it appeared here on Earth about 3.5 billion years ago, through a process that is not yet understood.

Remember, just because we do not understand exactly HOW something happened, does not mean that it did not happen.

We do not understand how atomic nuclei are bound together, but it appears that they are.

Answer 7

A large Puffy Fairy, not from our Planet, came down and created your dog Ernie and all the people around you.
Actually, you might want to read a science book.

Answer 8

I don't know. Abiogenesis isn't my field. I'm into oscillating universe theory (cycles of expansion/contraction), the whole primordial soup thing, but not in any major way.

I can admit that I don't know, because I don't plug God into the gaps in my knowledge.

It's "atheists", by the way. Does your version of Answers not have a spell checker?

Answer 9

You seem to be able to understand the concept that your god can create life from the inanimate, simply remove the god and you may start to understand.

Answer 10

It evolved through natural, scientific events, and I am not an athiest.

Answer 11

The chemicals present in the prehistoric ocean and in the prehistoric atmosphere. We have done it in the lab as far as a virus.

And I think you need to look at this question, because even if we didn't have the slightest idea, that wouldn't be evidnce for a god: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AnAMrZUIjorP9U.L3pWi40Xd7BR.?qid=20070616055947AA8BzTP
