Complexity of RNA Molecules Refutes Evolutionist Claims

Probabilistic calculationsmake it clear that complex molecules such as
proteins and nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) could not ever have been
formed by chance independently of each other . Yet evolutionists have
to face the even greater problem that all these complex moleculeshave
to coexist simultaneously in order for life to exist at all .
Evolutionary theory is utterly confounded by this requirement. This is
a point on which some leading evolutionists have been forced to
confession. For instance, Stanley Miller's and Francis Crick's close
associate from the University of San Diego California, reputable
evolutionist Dr. Leslie Orgel says :
It is extremely improbable that proteins and nucleic acids, both of
which are structurally complex, arose spontaneously in the same place
at the same time. Yet it also seems impossible to have one without the
other. And so, at first glance, one might have to conclude that life
could never, in fact, haveoriginated by chemical means . 1
The same fact is also admitted by other scientists:
John Horgan, "In the Beginning", Scientific American, vol. 264,
February 1991, p. 119
DNA cannot do its work, including forming more DNA, without the help
of catalytic proteins, or enzymes. In short, proteins cannot form
without DNA, but neithercan DNA form without proteins . 2

New York, Vintage Books, 1980, p. 548
How did the Genetic Code, along with the mechanisms for its
translation (ribosomes and RNAmolecules), originate ? For the moment,
we will have tocontent ourselves with a sense of wonder and awe,
rather than with ananswer. 3
