And it will tell you it came from a seed but to further back. Go to the beginning. The earth finally cooled down from being a molten rock in space. Life can't occur if a planet or ecosystem is void. At that time the whole universe was void of life. There weren't even single celled organism's. So how did they get there? Ah! Now you're wondering. The obvious answer is God. And no atoms didn't compound and build on one another because atoms are just bits of elements like water, sand, diamond. But trees are living , breathing things. God created trees, animals, people, insects, birds, fish, monkeys, puppies, cows, chickens, emus, ostriches, you name it.
