Must be a new creationist comic book being left at all the laundromats around the trailer parks. The old edition was "tornado in a junkyard." Now it's "wristwatch parts tumbled in a clothes dryer." Most impressive. It's good to see that the creationists are keeping up with the latest research.

It's an excellent example of descent with modification.
"tornado in a junkyard" was coined by Hoyle, and
Wickram(xxxx)...sorry I cannot remember how to spell
his name.
Both of them purported that they felt life was seeded
to earth from another extraterrestrial source, cuz of the "tornado in a junkyard making a 747" scenario
was unacceptable...Neither of them are creationists, they felt (from what I understood) that life had evolved on a different planet under different conditions than that found on earth.
Right on! I was raised with "a monkey at the type writer will never recreate the Webster dictionary even over the course of millions of years”. Or was is encyclopedia Britannica?
Glad I could put that time behind me…
It has always fascinated me how people often pick and choose what biblical passages should be interpreted literally and which ones should be interpreted symbolically.
There are some old (half century or more) models of self-reproducing machines that work just like described. There's a bag of parts; if no parts are assembled, the shaking does nothing. If two (or more) parts happen to latch on to each other, the whole bag becomes full of that configuration.
