At The Origin of Life, There's No Shortcut to Energy-Harnessing

On today’s ID the Future out of the vault, Stairway to Life co-author Rob Stadler and host Eric Anderson delve deeper into Challenge to Origin of Life: Energy Harnessing, an episode of the Long Story Short intelligent design video series. Could the first cell have been much simpler than any current cell, making it easier for it to emerge through blind natural forces on the early Earth? Stadler and Anderson surface one big problem with that idea: in experiments to make relatively simple cells even simpler, the cells inevitably become less robust and adaptable. These simpler cells must be coddled to survive. But the first cell on earth would have been anything but coddled. Tune in to learn more!

Thanks for providing plausible, intelligent answers. No thanks to darwinian fables and fabrications.

It’s remarkable, how they are willing to accept the improbable task of random/unguided processes leading to the complexity we see in life forms and throw out the possibility of there being an intelligent mind/God that has been nurturing these processes from the beginning. I believe they are so set on separating themselves from subjugation to a supernatural being that they are ignoring their own gaps.

Good stuff! Has anyone come up with any scenario for getting fermentors to evolve into aerobic cells?

Proton transfer and long life.

Accepting God as the starting point gives us a complete picture. Darwin tried to take a shortcut and left us with an incomplete picture.

Naturalism and evolution is the adult fairytale for those that reject superior truths.
