I think you’re discounting the millions of years of evolution. Selective biology choosing the best candidate for survival. Known human history is at most 15000 yrs. there’s been millions of years ...
No I am specifically talking about the origins of life, the first complex living cells, from basic chemicals under prebiotic Earth conditions.
We are unable to produce complex living cells from basic chemicals without intelligent input. We may be able to produce a sludge that contains a few amino acids, but that is all. We are still struggling to produce the biomolecules needed to construct living cells, let alone the living cells thenselves. Simple as that.
So the big question is not about evolution, it is about the origins of life. Even so, neo-Darwinism is no longer considered a reliable hypothesis by some. Have you seen Dennis Noble's serious criticism of Richard Dawkins?
