Lab simulations nix the common wisdom that atmospheric oxygen and organic compounds are good evidence that a planet harbors life. [1] Scientists speaking of life. As if they have created it. But they have not. Look out for the obvious. It is usually not so obvious. Watch out for the assumptions; especially the ones implied. They are usually not met. Surely the existence of oxygen itself does not mean anything per se. But not because oxygen can be created abiotically (as those scientists in this announcement claim). But because currently all oxygen produced in similar experiments is produced 'abiotically', i.e. before the creation of life. And the simple reason is that… there is essentially no example of scientists managing to create life from simple chemical compounds inside a lab anyway! The marketing department of science, a.k.a. scientism, has gone into new realms of propaganda to promote things which are just… not there. And people will believe them. Because science is the new religion now. And there will always be people who believe anything as long as it is wrong enough. In the old enlightened days, a small candle was lit. And for a short period of time people believed the cosmos was made out of Logos. For a short period of time, people believed in themselves. But that didn’t last long. Now the candle is extinguished. And inside the cold darkness of modern thinking era, people believe the world is made out of nothing. Atheists searching for life where life is not. Looking for light where they have cast darkness. What greatest evidence could they use to support their belief that… Nothing? Look into everything proved by science. Then go the opposite direction. And you will see things unproved. You will witness things untested. You will witness life…
