Note that all 'specific work' has to mean is replication. Hello? What's this? I believe that any organic-based widget which is "self-replicating" would in fact be called LIFE. Now if evolutionists have demonstrated LIFE arising from "conditions resembling the prebiotic earth" it would indeed be news. Has Keith chosen net.origins to make a Nobel Prize quality announcement?
