In another 20 years we'll be able to create life from scratch using amino acids. Where will the cretionist arguments go then?

Noplace. They'll smugly trot out the same old pointless "you-get-your-own-dirt" parable.

The evolutionist version goes like this:

A bunch of scientists figured out all the secrets of life. They said to God, "We don't need you anymore. We can do all of this ourselves."

And God said, "                        ."

So the men said, "You want to see us to make a man out of dirt? We can do it, you know."

God said, "                        ."

The men said, "Hello, is anybody there?"

And God said, "                        ."

Eventually one of the scientists suggested they stop wasting their time, and they went back to their labs to get some work done.

I ran across this statement in a piece not long ago, and I wonder if you'd care to comment.

"No scientific theory has ever explained all the phenomena that fall within its domain."

And they wasted the rest of their lives trying to make themselves the Creator instead of the created.

And then they died... All pretty pointless...

A scientist who tries to create life from amino acids is not a scientist, he is a crook. Any scientist knows that amino acids do not create DNA but that DNA and RNA creates amino acids and the proteins of living things. They have it backwards and you who have some scientific knowledge should know that very well.

Strangely enough the bible has anticipated this response:

2Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
2Peter 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
