just came down to watching the video of Paul Nurse about what is life. Did life emerge or was it created? Do you believe in a God that was not alive thus created life? How could a dead object create anything, and what does eternal life mean?
Nurse is so close an yet so wrong.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God, the word or logos or coherent utterance or thought or a will of a mind can control a process.
As such, the biblical explanation that God spoke things into existence is a beautiful description of reality.
Where he misses it is when he declares evolution to be a process that creates biodiversity without the need of a designer, as he misses the point that the process is beautifully designed for the purpose of propagating life with a feedback loop that enhances complexity.
At around 7 minutes he boldly states that “And that means that a living thing can acquire purpose” Makes him sound like his life started without purpose and he acquired it at Tesco
I love it when at 7:12 you see the screws that hold it all together what is made to look so all natural - without the need of designer
