If every evolutionary model leads to organisms of greater complexity, then evolutionists have to discard these models since the vast majority of all the different life forms living on the Earth now (nearly 100%) seem to have just barely emerged from the slime even after billions of years (and I am not even considering the far greater number of life forms which evolutionists believe once existed but didn't get much beyond the slime stage either). Sometimes I wonder how humans who have achieved intelligence (the execeptional evolutionary success story?), can be so unscientific for believing in the evolutionary religious dogmas about their origins when evolution itself is by definition unscientific (i.e. it is not observable, cannot be reproduced in the lab and it's impossible to predict future evolutionary changes). But who am I to attack anyone's beliefs or even groundless assumptions. As for the question "Are we alone in the universe?", I suspect that one reason the 1976 discovery of life on Mars was supressed and the later facts regarding the alleged fossils found in the Mars meteorites were downplayed, was that the scientific evidence illuminated fatal flaws in evolutionary thinking and strengthened the case of a universal Creator. If life could spontaneously emerge on other worlds and evolve to more complex life forms, why then would Martian organisms react chemically the same way and even look identical to Earth organisms unless they had they exhibited the "brushstrokes" of the same Creator? I know of many scientists who believe in evolution breathed a deep sigh of relief when ufologists came to their rescue proving that the very human looking "Alien Autopsy" being was a hoax. In an attempt to salvage their cherished evolutionary beliefs, some scientists have already gone on record showing why life on Mars was likely seeded by life from Earth through catastrophic explosions on our world. Thank God we are still here. ;o) Nick Balaskas
