Wiki seems to be on my side.
Good for you, but their 'near perfect' is still far from perfect, if you see what I mean. As an error correcting mechanism it is very efficient, but the sheer volumes of genetic material involved mean that mutations are an inevitable result. There is plenty of research on the mutation rate, if you can show me any that says the mutation rate is 0 I'll be very surprised. In fact in Wikipedia the very words 'near perfect' are a link to the wiki article on mutation.
Without the presence of oxygen in the atmosphere, there wouldn't be an ozone (O3) layer, protecting the earth from harmful radiation.
Wow, you just totally changed the premise of your argument, nice goal post shift. The most commonly posited explanation for this is that life arose in the oceans, where a depth of ~30 metres would reduce the radiative effects to equivalent to those of the modern day.
And perhaps even though it is plausible that certain purines could exist
Did you miss the paper I linked to discussing pyrimidine synthesis?
3. Contains useful information. (The only sequence possible with two acids is AG, or GA. However, Adenine and Guanine do not pair today, so this is unlikely. Regardless, you have no useful information).
Well this is just nonsense, base pairing is a phenomenon of higher structural levels for RNA. Single stranded RNA doesn't need base pairing so any number of sequences composed of sequences of A's and G's is possible. Or is your argument that without a complementary partner there will be no folding to functional tertiary structures like hairpins? That might be a valid argument,
if it were true that pyrimidines couldn't be formed, which it isn't.
Then I suppose we will get to them when the scientists do, hey?
Not really, you claimed that no chemical reactions to produce ribonucleic acids existed that didn't require enzymes. I gave you a reference to a paper full of non-enzymatic chemical routes, as well as one paper showing such a route in operation. So your claim is false, now you are switching claims, no one is going to be fooled by this into accepting that your initial claim was true.
TTFN,
