Re: Possibility of Abiogenesis
I'm not sure that your paper cited does what you imply it does.
​
Yep, that was my thought yesterday when I read it.
​
I didn't study the combinatorics in any detail, but they seemed to be quite thorough.
​
However, they do seem to be rather deluded... there is no need at all for their probability to be of order unity. And personally, I really do not see abiogensis occuring as this simultaneous ordered coming-togther of countless amino acids, so this kind of probability argument is totally useless IMO.
​
They can't even get their references correct. I find it quite hard to believe that Barrow and Tipler came out in 1994 when my prize winning essay based on their book was written in 1989
