| bluxx said: you need to check the mathematical statistics discussed by Dr Hugh Ross and others who state clearly the earth is simply not old enough for life to have evolved in the time spans we talk about. |
The problem with Hugh Ross is that he is a Mathematician and Physicist, not a Biologist. His understanding of evolution is not going to be on the level of an evolutionary biologist (or any good biologist for that matter) and his predictive model hasn't stood up to peer review.
I don't think his model would stand up to review if he knew how quickly scientists have observed the formation of simple biomolecules essential for life for instance (it's both tested and observed in early Earth-like conditions and incredibly rapidly). Or that simple RNA molecules are capable of catalysing a vast array of biological reactions.
