[meteorite-list] Alien Contact Predicted

[Phil Whitmer]

Norbert,

Maybe you could just sum it up for me in a nutshell and explain the 
principles and mechanics of non living matter suddenly becoming alive. I 
admit, I'm way too dumb to figure it out.  In a paragraph, explain 
abiogenisis for me.

My basic point is, humans are too stupid to figure out how life got started 
here on Earth.  Then in their ignorance and arrogance, they start claiming 
there is other life that spontaneously generated on some other planet long 
ago and in a faraway galaxy.

So will someone please address this basic point and explain the origin of 
life to me?

I'm not the one making   extraordinary claims with nothing to back it up.

Norbert, you seem like a really smart guy, so tell me how did life start 
here on Earth?

Once I understand that, then I will be much more open to the idea that life 
just randomly pops up all over the place.

It seems to me really arrogant to claim to know something,( life exists on 
other planets), when I 'm just stating the obvious: We have no evidence of 
this.
