How Life Started by Emergent Chemical Evolution

Back in 2004 in order to complete my Chemistry Degree, I decided to take an Introduction to Philosophy class. It was here that the professor informed us that one of life's biggest questions, exactly how life had started on Earth, was not yet answered! I was so taken aback by this revelation that I nearly toppled over backwards in my chair. For nearly two decades I was under the mistaken impression that we knew exactly how it all had happened. The reason I was under such an impression was because back in the summer of 1987 I had read the Scientific American book called Molecules to Living Cells. By the end of which, I remember, being very convinced that we already knew exactly how life had started; but then again, I was only seventeen and, I guess, very impressionable. Well that same day in 2004 when I returned home from my philosophy class, I found Molecules to Living Cells and began rereading it. By the time I had read the first quarter of the introduction, I realized that- ye...

These are Molecules that are Easy to String Together, Can Catalyze Any Reaction, and Themselves Be a Source to Make More Molecules. When I was reading my biochemistry text it struck me as very odd of how little it discussed about exactly how RNA and then DNA are synthesized! There was only ONE paragraph on the subject. All it said was that the synthesis of all biomolecules, in cells, BEGINS with the MODIFICATION OF AMINO ACIDS! That was the complete discussion on the synthesis of (and amino acids role in) the synthesis of non-protein molecules. Pay attention here is the key concept: if Life Evolved and by our best estimates has blundered onto the most efficient way to synthesize molecules shouldn't we begin from there? Now shouldn't it make you take notice that life not only breaksdown its food to amino acids, begins all its synthesis with the modifications of amino acids, carries out all its important reactions with amino acids(as proteins), and the most abundant organic m...

It took millions of collisions and this is not Panspermia. Panspermia is the introduction of already living Life forms to Earth from Space.  Meteorites colliding with Earth, delivering amino acids, and combining them is the way Life started on Earth!! Let me explain: The reason no one but myself has solved this problem; is that people can't see the forest for the trees!  1. ALL BIOLOGICAL molecules made in CELLS-- BEGIN with AMINO ACIDS!! 2. What does life use to make things happen? Proteins.  3. What are proteins made of? Amino Acids.  4. Why are amino acids good to make proteins? They self-assemble into repeatable structures spontaneously.  5. Where can amino acids be found? Every comet, asteroid, and meteorite. 6. How did the volatile elements(water, carbon dioxide, nitrogen gas) get to earth? The heavy bombardment.  7. What have recent experiments have shown about comet impacts? That instead of breaking them down they unite amino acids into pol...
