Completely missing the point
I was reading your posts here... all of you, and I noticed the words you were using; build, create, make (ie. design).
​
Yes, the words are similar. Do you think that's what was meant by them in the context of "How to make a ribozyme"?
​
Have you considered the irony that intelligent agents (yourselves) are attempting to 'recreate' what is supposed to have happened without labs or precise engineering.
​
No. This is where you 'Completely miss the point'. The point is not to verify if it actually happened, but if it could have happened or what would it have taken for it to happened. For example, if you recreate rain in the lab it doesn't mean that an entity causes rain in nature.
If we couldn't recreate nature in order to find out what was going on 'when we were not looking' (or can't look) then science wouldn't work, and there would be no science.
