Wait a minute! Some said that history cannot be observed or repeated. Someone else said that mathematics cannot be applied to the spontaneous development of life. Let's make some clarifications here.

History: True, Kodak Cameras and VCRs were not around hundreds of millions of year ago. History does repeat itself, but laboratory experimental conditions to excactly replicate the historical process of evolution is not feasible. BUT .....

We do have means today to record data and events for furute analysis. We can study theories and hypothesis based on evidence collected to date and postulate forward. Future generations can study the results and compare these to the theories and postulations to arrive at conclusions. Also, new instrumentation and technological development may allow for greatly improved collection of historical evidence. This may allow humanity to arrive at a better understanding of our past and where we are headed. Whether the theory of evolution as we understand it today will hold up to the test of time reamins to be seen.

As to applied mathematics, it is important to remember that the theory of evolution does not state that suddenly some little ameoba awakened one day to a rock song and jumped out of the primordial soup to announce 'here I am World! I want to grow up to be a human!'

Evolution requires that the very first building blocks of life develope before the next progressive step in the long chain of events can take place.

These building blocks are mostly chemical in nature, such as ammino acids and various simple proteins. These can be currently observed and measured. Chemical changes can be mathematically predicted to occur at certain repeatable intervals. Given enough repetitions in certain chemical reactions, steady changes will take place. Microbiologists and chemists can determine the mathematical probabilities that over a given time that certain changes will become permanent.

We do this all the time with more complex chemicals. We can, at sea level, using distilled water, measuring the water volume, and apply a certain steady level of heat for a certain amount of time predict when the water will change from a static cool liquid to a dynamic boiling state. We can equally use the same mathematical process to study the change to a gaseous state, called steam.

The question is not so much whether evolutionary events can take place, given enough time and the right chemical conditions; but the question that need to be asked first is whether enough time has elapsed from singularity to the present to allow for the current theory of evolutionary processes to have taken place. Presently, given the relatively young life of our universe, known required basic chemical changes suggests that evolution has just not had enough time to accomplish what we see today.

Other types of theories or evolutionary processes then need to be developed to explain how we arrived here so rapidly. One of those legitimate theories is that an intelligent designer commenced the process that spawned our existence. Some call this creation by God. This is the theory I presently suscribe to.
