One of the stated aims is “searching for signs of past microbial life” in an ancient lakebed This is based on the belief that all it takes for live to appear is a rocky planet a bit like earth and water plus a few million years.
Evolutionists like to point to their story of the evolution of whales as a good example of a transition from a land mammal to fully aquatic creatures. But is this consistent with the evidence?
I have been looking at the fossil Morganucodon which is believed to represent a transitional stage in the evolution of non-mammalian synapsids to mammals.
After a close look at the evidence I believe that the evidence is more consistent with the classification of Morganucodon as a mammal with a mammalian jaw joint and middle ear bones.
In this blog post I want to review an article recently posted by Science Daily about the origin of life. The sub-title is: “An experiment in recreating primordial proteins solves a long-standing riddle”. Click here for the paper. The riddle is the origin of positively charged amino acids, like arginine and lysine, which are part of almost all proteins found in living things. But before looking at the solution to this problem, consider the whole notion of primordial proteins arising spontaneously in a primordial soup...
