Analysis knocks down theory on origin of cell structure - MIT News Office »
Posted By altnrg 6 months, 3 weeks ago in Science & TechnologyUnderstanding how living cells originated and evolved into their present forms remains a fundamental research area in biology, one boosted in recent years by the introduction of new tools for genomic analysis. Now, researchers at MIT and Boston University have used such tools to put what they say is "the last nail in the coffin" for one theory about the origin of a basic structure in the cell.

One more nail in the coffin of superstition and Intelligent design and creationism.

Why do the religious morons oppose research? Because it destroys their beloved supersitition.
There is no afterlife, morons. Religion is a steaming pile of liquid crap. There is no evidence for your beloved creationism, where the earth was created 5000 years ago by the floating head of Charleton Heston.
As science peels away at the layers of evidence of how life began on this planet, evolving "by acquisition", the creation mytology you teach you ignorant inbred children looks kinda stupid, even to a bible thumping homeschooler.-

abw obviously did not read the story or if he did does not understand it. It is a blow against evolution not creationism. The more we learn about microbiology the more impossible evolution becomes. You need to get rid of your brainwashing.

Very interesting article. We briefly discussed how cells came into existence recently in a biology class I'm taking. The idea of endosymbiosis seems to be a pretty solid means to eukaryote cell development.

I think an important thing to be discussed is how the organelles inside the eukaryotic cells came to be in the first place. We think we know how they merged to form one cell, but how did they themselves come into existence? -

"believe" "thought" "might" - sounds like this science is simply taking on a form of faith.

Antibrainwasher...I feel for your point of view. I think its valid, because you're right, religion is a "steaming pile of liquid crap." Religion is a man-made institution, religion is how we try to describe God, religion is how we try to separate ourselves, religion is comforting because its easier than saying "I love you" to another human being after that human being just smacked you across the face.
But God, I "believe" is not. Don't discount his/hers existence and don't think for a second he/she didn't put here to be a selfless creature. Good luck.
ps. Floating head of Charleton Heston...loved it. Great imagery. -
