Dear Atheist,

[kylok]

Only people who are afraid to die cry for Jesus/Buddha/God etc. Next troll should be something more original though, this subject has been beat to death way too often.

Thanks for that, my English skills are a little rusty since I've been focusing on science for so long =)

Also, since I'm bored and know my Ochem mechanisms forwards and backwards... My Ochem teacher is researching Molecular Phylogenetics and wrote a computer program that accurate calculates the entropy of, and the formation of, DNA strands that make up bacteria - one step closer to explaining the how of life instead of "ermahgawd black box = evidence of God".

I want to derail this thread in an edifying way.

Lets talk about the biggest molecular mystery: the origins of homochirality. Can scientists determine (experimentally) feasible natural phenomena that would lead to a solution of monomers from which a homochiral molecular self-Replicator could propagate?

Also, what sort of ligation chemistry could provide the necessary balance of stability and reactivity to achieve spontaneous assembly of the first self-replicating catalyst? Amides and esters are too inert, as are phosphodiesters. Thioesters and disulfides are reasonable... Maybe hemiacetals?

Its pretty widely accepted that DNA wouldn't provide a suitable self-replicator, because base pairing limits its range of conformers and ties up potential catalytic moieties. Rna is much better suited, and indeed a nearly self-replicating rna sequence has been engineered, but it still seems like an unlikely first selfreplicator because of the monomer complexity and high energy of the phosphodiester bonds. We'll likely never know for sure what the original molecule was, but exploring possible scenarios is an extremely interesting area of study.

+10 very good. Science hasn't fully explained this subject. If it had we'd be taught biology very differently. When my Ochem teacher publishes his paper I'll be sure to link it.

Who knows but SPINNING around shit sure seems to be a recurrent theme in our whole shitfest of a universe!!~ perfect spheres of .. what... little strings... wahoooo

Scientists create never-before-seen form of matter

Working with colleagues at the Harvard-MIT Center for Ultracold Atoms, a group led by Harvard Professor of Physics Mikhail Lukin and MIT Professor of Physics Vladan Vuletic have managed to coax photons into binding together to form molecules – a state of matter that, until recently, had been purely theoretical. The work is described in a September 25 paper in Nature.

and yes dr hawking n Co already figured out how to resolve the religion/science conflict.
