The human mind is perfectly capable of attaching complicated meanings to what should be kept simple.

And the mystery of life explained as the coming together of large numbers of amino acids and proteins, plenty of time, and random organization, which is about as likely as billions of monkeys typing away on typewriters eventually producing a dictionary, is SIMPLE???

Give me a break.

Reproduction is a very simple process. People used to attached a supernatural explanation to it and some primitive people still believe the birth of a baby is miraculous. In one sense, the Virgin Birth legend is a vestige of the way people once saw the world. Today we know a baby is made through sexual intercourse between a man and a woman and the prosaic meeting of a sperm with an egg. Its still fascinating but there's nothing inherently complicated about living processes when you have the data right in front of you to establish how exactly they operate.
