AUSTRALIA - Charles Darwin may have been correct when he theorised that life began in a ‘warm little pond’ on early Earth, new fossils suggest. Currently most scientists believe that the first lifeforms evolved in the warm thermal vents of ancient seas, before gradually colonising the land around 2.9 billion years ago. But scientists have found evidence that microbes were living in hot springs in Western Australia as early as 3.48 billion years ago. In February 1871, Charles Darwin wrote to botanist Joseph Hooker speculating that life could have evolved in ‘some warm little pond’ if it were full of ‘ammonia, phosphoric salts, light, heat, and electricity’.
So: “...life could have evolved in ‘some warm little pond’ IF it were full of ‘ammonia, phosphoric salts, light, heat, and electricity’.”
This sounds very scholarly, until you ask the simple question: From whence cometh the ‘ammonia, phosphoric salts, light, heat, and electricity’ ...or the earth... or the universe, for that matter?
The real explanation for this type of twisted reasoning is explained in graphic detail in the New Testament. In the Epistle to the Romans, the Apostle Paul explains the root of the whole problem:
“Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became ["well educated"] fools...” (Romans 1:21-22)
Then read on to the end of the chapter, and see where this perverted thinking leads, then ask yourself – is this a fair description of today's western society?
