Here's something for the atheists to chew (or choke) on. :-)
Know what's sterilisation? According to Wikipedia, it's any process that effectively kills or eliminates transmissible agents (such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, spore forms, etc.) from a surface, equipment, article of food or medication, or biological culture medium.
Why do people bother to sterilise food, drinks, surgical instruments, etc? So that bad organisms don't get into your body and harm you.
Once upon a time, people (including some scientists) believed in spontaneous generation, which basically means living things popping up automatically from non-living things.
That was until sterilisation was discovered. It has been proven conclusively that once something is dead, it doesn't come back to life. So when you open a can from the supermarket, you don't expect it to be full of germs (or worms).
The food is in a closed system, ie the aluminium can. Life cannot form in a closed system, as anybody in the food industry will be happy to assure you.
So - if spontaneous generation has been debunked - how can life originate on the planet earth, which was ... wait for it ... a closed system?
I'd love to see the "scientists" twist themselves into a knot, trying to explain this one! :-)
