there's really no room for the concept of an independent entity possessed of «will» in a worldview shaped by cause and effect; the only place for «will» to retreat to is the zone of true randomness, of complete uncertainty, which means that truly free will as such must be completely inscrutible [sic]... Statistical laws govern the decay of a block of uranium, but whether or not this atom of uranium chooses to fission in this instant is a completely unpredictable event — fundamentally unpredictable, something which simply can not be known — which is equally good evidence for the proposition that it's God's (or the atom's) will whether it splits or remains whole, as for the proposition that it's random chance.
Nevertheless, basing their position on developments in molecular, organismic, and population ecology, Cobb and Birch characterize life as an increasingly complex special form of the organization of molecules and atoms that also involves a temporary and local decrease in entropy; there is no absolute, dualistic distinction between the living and non-living, animate and inanimate.

Questions such as whether the language of «faith» has any authority in a scientific age, or whether mind and life are reducible to atoms and molecules, whether only the tangible is real, whether the human person is anything more than a complex physico - chemical mechanism, whether we are free or determined, whether there is any «objective» truth to the symbols and myths of religion — all of these questions are asked at all only because what is fundamentally at issue is whether there is an ultimate context that gives meaning to cosmic process and significance to our lives in this process.
Any way you look at it, this is a mysterious world, but of all the ways in which the mystery can be stated none seems to me so improbable, so irrational, as to say there is no God, no Mind or Purpose in the universe, and all that is beautiful and right here is the accidental result of physical atoms going it blind.

As recently as the 1960s, most scientists doubted molecules could exist in interstellar space at all — the radiation there was thought to be too harsh for anything much beyond atoms and a few basic free radicals to survivAs recently as the 1960s, most scientists doubted molecules could exist in interstellar space at all — the radiation there was thought to be too harsh for anything much beyond atoms and a few basic free radicals to survivas the 1960s, most scientists doubted molecules could exist in interstellar space at all — the radiation there was thought to be too harsh for anything much beyond atoms and a few basic free radicals to survive.

The team observed that when atoms are spaced so that each occupies a trough in the optical lattice, when the ion crystal as a whole is dragged across the optical lattice, the atoms first tend to stick in the lattice's troughs, bound there by their preference for the lower electric potential, as well as by the Coulomb forces that keep the atoms apart.
Known as a «meta» C - H activation, this modification involves the temporary attachment of a helper molecule to one carbon atom, in such a way that the helper molecule extends past the nearest - neighbor carbon atom to the next - nearest carbon atom, and there mediates the addition of a functional group.
