You have the most annoying location ever.

False dichotomies are just that false, untruths, propoganda. I never said that you had to believe in bioneogenesis, namely because i am not certain that life arose on earth, it may have arisen on mars and been asteroided to Earth. One of many option that we have virtually no data about, so instead of propogating a false dichotomy at you i said, stop guessing.

Banned for doing screwy things about my null sig and an annoying avatar.

Yes, we should, because life is a product of the universe and we are thermodynamically driven to propogate.

After the fact, you pulled something unrelated off the internet. This is blown smoke. Just to let you know, i manage the equipment in a BSL2 facility and have my own BS2C. I have about a dozen publications that involve work in that facility. That technical bulletin has to deal with rank and file contamination. Mostly microbial due to carelessness, sometimes mycoplasm. The vector is propogated in bacteria, number one rule of mammalian tissue culture, dont grow bacteria in a mammalian tissue culture facility. Pyrogens kill cells. To transform cells with vector you have to purify the vector DNA to homogeniety and use some sort of transfection technique. You don't accidentally grow your vector in a BSL2 and accidentally cross contaminate. You have no idea what you are talking about. This is another example of sone activist group, failing to research the science carefully and blowing something out of proportion. Rather than sitting down and researching an issue thoroughly. CRISPR has been out there for years, it has been widely used for the last coupke of years, so far as yet i have not seen people running through the halls screaming bloody murder. We have an IRB for every thing we do, its all approved, there are no frankenspecies growing in the basement, some naked mice, maybe. -

i will, point out propoganda when i see it, when you use propoganda you are insulting others, just more coyly. There are firsts, in comoving space time there are going to be alot of first lifes in those regions. From a biochemist every molecule is a potential starting material. Water, ammoniua, sodium ions, magnesium ions, etc. There is nothing special about glycine forming in space, or formaldehyde. There are also alot of things in space that are toxic to life. in science you aren't allow to cherry pick out a few starting materials as life and ignore the fact that hydrogen and hydride ions, formadehyde and things like this are toxic. Life is hundreds of steps beyond glycine. Every species you know uses at least 19 amino acids, some of those can only be made by bacteria. Every species uses some form of hexose sugar and a ribose sugar, Every species uses RNA or DNA as the heritable material and all have some form of DNa protein aggregate. The simplist genome we know of that is not an onligate parasite is around 1 million nucleotides, thats not a nucleotide, thats a polymer that has a molecular weight in the 100s of millions.

The fallacy of the false dichotomy, and thats where we know the propoganda game is being played. Seriously who do you think is dumb enoughbto fall for the above clabbor? 1. Assuming our galaxy started forning about 2 to3 billion years after the universe formed, and our earths material is about 6 billion years from the time it was scattered into the void that formed our star. So from that 13.7 billion we subtract 9 leaving 4. That assumes there star formation at the center of the galaxy and spread succesively out with at least 1 generation of star formation. Since our region is depopulated of stars it was probably on of the last to go through blue then 2nd gwneration star formation. Therefore a maximum likeli hood estimate of the time to density appropriate form formation of elements in sufficient quantities to create life is about 8 billions years post big-band in areas ofvthe galaxy with our star density. 2. The false dichotomy. You assume that if life formed somewhere in the galaxy that it could commute anywhere else in the galaxy within a few billion years. That is mythology. Life can arise all over the galaxy and may never reach earth because. 1. The unlikeli hood that life will leave its bioneogenesis planet. 2. because of the gravity well within the star 3. Because of the temperatures and pressures required to get life off a planet and into deep space at velocities sufficient to reach a destination before cosmic radiation essential scrambles it to nonsense. 3. I have never said life does not exist elsewhere in the galaxy, i presented a range were many lifes could exist, but i also have open the possibility there is only one, or rather more likely that Earth is one of the older biospheres. If Earth is one of the older non-sterile biospheres then it makes no sense about seeding it from elsewhere. I should point out that intelligent life has to be within communication distance of us is no more than a guess, mythos. 4. Somewhere in our galaxy had to be the first, there is no reason Earth could not have been that first. 5. What I said, based upon the observed, is that life could be rare enough that communication of life information such as intelligence or living material may occur at minute distaces on the galactic scale, with few exceptions few and far between. So that even if you are correct is some infrequent instances, it does not mean you are correct in most or all instances. And logically speaking in at least one instance in our galaxy you must have been wrong.

Because you have to be in a state where its legal. Why not make everything illegal?
