Just because "a structured low entropy process that dissipates energy faster than diffusion" will win out every-time doesn't answer the question about how a self-replicating structured low entropy process will form in the first place. Once life starts then it will explode, but the problem is how to get life actually started.
- millstone 8y agoPerhaps life is easy to start, but is also easily out-competed by non-living self-replicating organisms.
- kaffeemitsahne 8y ago"non-living self-replicating organisms" Sounds like a contradiction to me ;)
- bmc7505 8y agoLots of things are self-replicating that we would not consider "living". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-replication https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-replication
- andbberger 8y agoNot claiming my above comment was the greatest argument ever, I didn't spend that much time on it - but that is precisely what the argument is about. I am arguing that the formation of life is not a rare thing at all.
