Scientists who oppose evolution ask: What further evidence is needed to prove that evolution and the spontaneous origin of life is just a story? Since the 1950s, universities from around the world have performed thousands of experiments and spent millions of dollars in an attempt to produce life from non-life. Despite large degrees of scientific intervention and use of sophisticated laboratory equipment, the work thus far has produced nonfunctional fragments of DNA, proteinoids (but not proteins), and a poisonous mixture of amino acids. Not one living organism has been formed in the laboratory using a mixture of chemicals. If the top scientists from around the world cannot demonstrate that life formed spontaneously, then the theory of evolution is, for all practical purposes, dead.
