Today's World Net Daily had the following article from Associated Press:

"Around the world, a handful of scientists are trying to create life from scratch and they're getting closer. Experts expect an announcement within three to 10 years from someone in the now little-known field of "wet artificial life."

Here's the most amazing part of the article to me:

"[O]nce the container [artifical cell membrane] is made, if scientists add nucleotides in the right proportions, then Darwinian evolution could simply take over" [emphasis in original].

What can this mean except that they believe if they dump the right components together that something will magically come to life? There's more to life than just chemistry, and I bet nothing will happen.

Michael Behe wrote about cellular systems in his book "Darwin's Black Box," saying this:

"Since anything could have been designed, and since we need to adduce evidence to show design, it is not surprising that we can be more successful in demonstrating design with one biochemical system and less successful with another. Some features of the cell appear to be the result of simple natural processes, others probably so. Still other features were almost certainly designed. And with some features, we can be as confident that they were designed as that anything was."
