I wonder whose money they’re wasting, chasing fairies at the bottom of the garden. When those space-cadets achieve what is scientifically impossible - produce a viable living organism from inanimate matter - wake me up. In the meantime, all they’ll succeed in doing is come up with deep and meaningless hypotheses.

That sounds right. Such researchers are deluded dreamers – most likely atheists - who choose to believe in superstition and magic rather than accept the obvious (divine) implications of the scientific evidence. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.

You are familiar with molecular biology. You are aware of the complex, synchronized, interdependent machinery and systems and the coded information that are present in even the simplest cells. That is your “primary literature”.
