B. You are an evolutionary biologist in a heated argument with a creation scientist who makes
the statement—\"Mathematically, it is inconceivable that anything as complex as a protein, let
alone a living cell or a human, could spring up by chance\". 1. Make a supporting statement for
chance. 2. Now play the other side and respond to the supporting statement as you think a
creation scientist would respond.?

You are an evolutionary biologist in a heated argument with a creation scientist who makes the
statement—
\"Mathematically, it is inconceivable that anything as complex as a protein, let alone a living cell
or a human, could spring up by chance\".
1. Make a supporting statement for chance.
Chance: It plays a part in evolution (for example, random mutations in a gene pool can give rise
to few new traits), but evolution does not depend ONLY on chance in creating new organisms,
proteins or any other entities. This is quite opposite to natural selection. Natural selection is the
principal which is known for the mechanism of evolution. By chance some mutation caused in
the gene pool and it gave to new acceptable traits. If they found adjustable to the environment,
they continues as a new species. The \"undesirable\" (nonadaptive) ones will be thus elimated
from that gene pool. As long as the forces of selection stay constant, natural selection pushes the
evolution in only one direction and produce new desired structures. Thus chance plays a part in
evolution. Nature plays a major role in this. Fossil studies support this theory/ process. Where we
can see many intermediate or failed species in between major species.
Archaeopteryx, a link between reptiles and birds, extinctinted soon is a good example of
intermediate species.
Haldane and Oparin proposed a theory of the origin of life on Earth through the transformation,
during the gradual chemical evolution of particles that contain carbon in the primordial soup
shows an example of Evolution.
2. Now play the other side and respond to the supporting statement as you think a creation
scientist would respond?
As a creation scientist i do not agree with science and evolution part, all this is created by God
and thus it follows biblical roots. All that it is in the nature is creation of God, all of a sudden it
appeared on the earth. According to us GOD created all species like birds,animals etc., later he
wanted to create a genius brained animal, so he created humans. And God creation according to
us all this is due to CHOICE not because of CHANCE.Thus it involved logical and systematic
process..
