Re: Confused Mess, Yes
If all of the 21st century kings men and all of the kings horses of science with all of the sophisticated computerized apparatus, etc can't produce full live organisms, how on earth, can we believe random processes and primitive selection mechanism can do the trick simply by natural and random processes?
There are all manner of things that natural processes accomplish that man, with all his technology and knowledge, is comlpetely incapable of. Krakatoa erupted in 1883 with an explosive force of about 1300 megatons. By contrast, humanity hae never managed any greater explosive force than 50 megatons. Does our inability to cause such an explosion, will all our computerised apparatus, make the reality of Krakatoa's eruption any less likely?
