The interactions are not random.
It's the same idea with evolution, when ppl say it's random.
English
-
The interactions among the hypothetical amino acids you mean?
-
The interaction among the chemistry is not random.

How can you say that? If we had enough amino acids appear all of a sudden.. How is it not random how they will bump into each other/whether they form/if it's in the right order/ you would always get a different outcome without guidance or a information source... Isn't that random?

Have you ever seen a rocket ship launch? It takes off because of the interaction between chemicals used as a propellent. That interaction is not random. It is just how those chemicals react to each other and they will continue to produce the same outcome. That is what I mean when I say it is not random and Tbh Idk how to explain it in any other way. The Miller Urey experiment shows that under certain conditions, chemicals will react in a non random fashion and produce amino acids. Again it's not random. But back to the other conversation. Do you not believe in nature?

I believe in nature.. I don't think the way chemicals react with each other is random.. There may be versatility to it but it's generally the same outcome.. What I'm saying is random is the pool conditions needed to support an amino acid, the building blocks for amino acids being available, the amino acids aligning in a formation that is beneficial to their growth. All the study did was produce a few amino acids, not ones needed for life, a couple actually detrimental to it and not enough of them even come close to a protein. The manor in which these amino acids would encounter each other is anyone's guess, they may never even reach each other in the pool

Edited by IamPluto: 3/17/2015 8:34:44 PMYou're missing the point for the MU experiment man. Amino acids can occur naturally. That is the main point. How the conditions came to be. Whether it was random or not is beside the point. And no one knows if the conditions were random. Abiogenesis, the study of the origin of life, is still in its beginning stages. How could you believe everything is designed and at the same time believe in nature. Isn't that contradictory?.

I see what you mean, and it is pretty impressive they even created a single amino acid.. I believe God created all but doesn't control it. Nature is the ebb and flow of his creation governed by laws that we as Humans slowly come to understand
