I don't know, its what life is made of. Do you understand what DNA is? Those elements make up DNA. Those elements can form organics in the right conditions.

I'm not trying to create negativity here or start a big argument its just always something I had wondered and I thought maybe you'd have some insight. I am not familiar with DNA unfortunately. Its just mind numbing to understand how there was nothing and then a billions of years later there's life randomly

There's no shame in not knowing something, I'm proud that you can admit it. Not everyone can. Unfortunately I do not have all of the answers. I can use what we know about life, and come up with conclusions but I can't be certain. However its important to realize that just because we don't know something, doesn't mean God did it. A couple billion years is a very long time, much longer than most people realize. A lot can happen in that time.

Granted our beliefs are probably different but I just can't dismiss the idea of a greater power. It just feels right and I know feels right is different than ACTUALLY right. I do not dismiss evolution it has been proven, but as long as their is no solid proof of spontaneous generation I will believe in a greater power. It would take quite a significant finding to sway my belief and I'll be honest its probably impossible to sway my belief.

It might just feel right because it's so nice to have an answer to such a big question. Unfortunately it doesn't mean it's the right answer. It may be that life needs very particular conditions to arise from non living material. It may have only occurred naturally once, which means we're not necessarily looking for something that is [i]likely[/i] to happen, just something that is possible. This isn't evolution we're discussing any more though, it's abiogenesis. Have fun learning all about it, it's a fascinating subject.

That's fine, we have proven life can come from nonlife, but we can't go back in a time machine and see it happen.
