and DNA is so complex it could not have evolved by chance unless we are to assume that molecules just happened to arrange themselves into the DNA molecule
at the same times as a nucleus formed to hold the DNA,
at the same time as the
cell membrane just happened to form around it,
at the sametime as all the
cell maintaining process in the cytoplasm just happened to come into existence to form a single
cell and that all these aspects just happened to come together
