More Dishonesty in Origin of Life Studies

Darwin Ranch is appropriately placed down yonder at Deception Pass, since they don't cotton to telling the truth in what passes for science research in their minds. Back with the failed Miller-Urey experiment for the origin of life, the researchers showed that by assuming what the conditions were way back when, and by trapping to remove the product (cheating), they could intelligently design something to produce a few amino acids.

Now there's a tinhorn who decided to add barbiturates that he got at a supply house plus some melamine to a primordial soup thing and get himself some molecules. I reckon they're supposed to be pre-pre-RNA, and he basically says, "It could happen". That'll be the day! There are too many assumptions made, bad logic, and too much that has been left out of the reports. It's amazing the lengths some people will go to in order to avoid admitting that God is the Creator, and we're accountable to him.

Are barbituates the missing links to the origin of life?

Nick Hud (Georgia Institute of Technology) is a respected scientist in origin of life research, receiving funds from NASA and the National Science Foundation (NSF) for his work. His latest paper, published in Nature Communications, claims you can get nucleotides that pair up, like nucleic acids, spontaneously – if you mix the right ingredients. What works, his team found, is a mixture of barbituric acid and melamine (more on those molecules below). These are the “missing links,” the Georgia Tech press release suggests, that could have been “brewed in primordial puddles”. Ben Brumfield’s prose tempts the reader’s imagination with imagery out of medieval alchemy:

An evolutionist is up to doing lousy science, bad logic, and even dishonesty in a vain effort to speculate what happened to cause the origin of life.
