Did Life Originate In Space?

An article posted by CNN on Jan 30th, 2001 entitled:
"Self-made cells show life could originate in space" 
discusses results from a biologist, David Deamer, working 
at the University of California Santa Cruz, and results 
of other researchers at NASA. They acknowledge that the 
organics needed to make life are in fact all over out there 
in deep space and that cell membranes can form in the
conditions seen in space. The results about the cell 
membrane are just more evidence that life could have 
begun in space. They also state that said life would then 
arrive on earth through comets, the earth being seeded 
with life from space.

The implications of this are that Genesis is confirmed to
be correct in the TIMING of the events given in the account.

Biologists openly admit that simple single cell photosynthetic 
life had to have occurred first, else almost no other 
life could exist. This is due to the fact that single cell 
photosynthetic life is needed to convert radiant energy
into sugars that other life needs to survive. They've also 
detected sugars around planet forming stars, which is also 
more evidence that the TIMING in Genesis is correct. The
earliest detectable photosynthetic life is very difficult
to confirm due to the earth recycling the upper crust. But
the evidence of photosynthetic life being available, that
can give life here on earth at the most earliest of times
right while the earth was forming from the regathering matter.

What Genesis is saying is that single cell photosynthetic 
life began to show up very early as the earth finished 
forming. That early photosynthetic life came from space, 
our solar system as it was forming from the regathering 
matter after the explosion of the "pre-sun" star. Genesis 
calls that photosynthetic life the only terms they had 
available back then. Genesis called that life: plants,
but qualifies it being different in that the "seed" of 
life was WITHIN itself.

Genesis is saying that LIFE started then, the seed of 
life being WITHIN that photosynthetic single cell life. 

Clearly, God was right, he said exactly what occurred.

God made it all, Jesus died for our sins.
