How did non-living collections of chemicals become life? And why haven’t we been able to replicate it in a lab?

Sitting at work tripping thinking about this.

We probably will in a few centuries or so. Look how much technological advance we did in 100yrs.

evolution took billion of yrs. You think that can be replicated in a couple of hours? :russ:

We have all the chemicals. All the amino acids and shyt. We don’t need to wait billions of years for those to form and test…just make them shyts in a lab. I’m talking about the actual process of non-life to life - the light switch. That would have occurred instantaneously, no?

A foreign intelligence came upon the earth. And the earth responded. She gave birth and kept on giving birth.

Well... Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started.... But hold on.
The earth began to cool, the autotrophs began to drool
Neanderthals developed tools
We built a wall (we built the pyramids)
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries
That all started with the big bang
Since the dawn of man is really not that long
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song
A fraction of a second and the elements were made
The bipeds stood up straight, the dinosaurs all met their fate
They tried to leap but they were late
And they all died (they froze their asses off)
The oceans and Pangea, see ya wouldn't wanna be ya
Set in motion by the same big bang
It all started with the big bang
It's expanding ever outward but one day
It will pause and start to go the other way
Collapsing ever inward, we won't be here, it won't be heard
Our best and brightest figure that it'll make an even bigger bang
Australopithecus would really have been sick of us
Debating how we're here, they're catching deer (we're catching viruses)
Religion or astronomy (Descartes or Deuteronomy)
It all started with the big bang
