One of the most hotly debated subjects in the last hundred years is the origin of life. Throughout human history Man has believed that some sort of Creator with powers far beyond those of mortal men intervened in affairs, and the existence of life-and the improbability of living organisms spontaneously generating from unliving material-has been the evidence to convince philosophers, historians, scientists, of the existence of God, or at least of some sort of Divine presence. There is clearly a demarcation between the living and the non-living, something that humans haven`t been able to explain. What is the great mystery of life? Why are we here?
