According to Science, Life Cannot Exist (?)

According to
James Tour, a synthetic organic chemist at Rice University.

[Quoting From the Linked Site]
Life should not exist. This much we know from chemistry. In contrast to the ubiquity of life on earth, the lifelessness of other planets makes far better chemical sense. Synthetic chemists know what it takes to build just one molecular compound. The compound must be designed, the stereochemistry controlled. Yield optimization, purification, and characterization are needed. An elaborate supply is required to control synthesis from start to finish. None of this is easy. Few researchers from other disciplines understand how molecules are synthesized.
[End Quote]

Years ago I took a course in biochemistry, and concluded that it is way too complex for me to grasp.
That in itself, however, made the course worthwhile.
It both taught me my limits, and also, gave me a surface appreciation of the vast complexities
of even the simplest life forms.

The God Paradigm holds that
Life, Consciousness and Free Will
are three of the absolutes around which physical nature is built.
They are the foundation of, not a separation from, physics and physical reality.
 
Every advance in science adds more evidence for that.
