Description: Underwater alkaline hydrothermal vents, also known as white smokers or white chimnies, were discovered in the 1970s. The abundance of life in these environments caught the attention of scientists and led to the proposal of new theories regarding the origin of life. One of the most plausible theories according to evolutionists was that life originated at alkaline hydrothermal vents or white smokers on the ocean floor.
In this episode, we challenge evolutionists to emulate the process of the origin of life at these thermal vents, since either you have life, or you don’t. There are basic contradictions in the process of origin of life from simple chemicals. Water is an enemy to the peptide bond, but water is essential to life. If you follow the scenario proposed by evolutionists for the chemical synthesis of DNA, RNA, proteins, cell membranes and organelles, it defies reason that only chance could have produced it.
