Very interesting presentation that brings together the evidence from genetics and controversial findings from extraterrestrial samples supporting the life from space theory.

It's fascinating. Nobel Prize genius Crick was high on LSD when he discovered the secret of life.

I don't see how this has to negate Darwin's theory of evolution. It can also be accepted as how God operates. It's like a missing link that ties them both together. Crick got a little "creative" with the alien idea I think. He may have misinterpreted his visions on LSD.
He was an unwavering atheist. His need to keep things in line with his belief system may have made him bias.

I believe we can manipulate our own DNA through our will.

There are various theories about how life might have arrived on Earth outside that it started here. One of the real possibilities is that a visiting alien spaceship dumped its latrine and kitchen garbage on the ground before it took off for home. Of you want to pray to that original pile of detritus and clump of defecation, more power to you.

If comets contain blue-green algae, why isn't there life as we know it out there?

Sand, did you even watch those videos?

I don't have TV. I don't watch videos. Reference on the web indicate that comets with water could grow blue-green algae but no algae has yet been found beyond Earth. As a matter of fact, no life of any kind has yet been discovered outside Earth whatever the possibilities.

I forgot that you can't watch the videos.

All the information on that link indicates that bacteria have the potential to survive in space but no life has yet been discovered as originating in space. There is Earth life- anerobic bacteria such as that which causes botulism, which is killed by oxygen so the vacuum of space would not be fatal and extreme cold would not harm it. Extreme heat and radiation could kill it. Nevertheless all life so far has proved native to Earth.
