> > > Also, the number of combinations is not in fact truly "infinite". Combinatorics can lead to very large numbers, but the result is not a mathematical infinity unless you start with an infinity to begin with. The number of chemical elements involved in phenomena of life is quite limited, as are the ways in which they can combine together. - In my just previous post I have pointed out that replicating RNA molecules can be found if hundreds of trillions are searched by computer. The above statement that the elements involved in the phenomena of life is quite limited is wrong. I agree the types of inorganic elements used from inorganic chemistry are small in number (92), and only a small number are used to make rudimentary organic molecules, but life requires very complex organic molecules, allowing trillions of combinations, which according to George are supposed to appear by chance, find each other and work together to create life.
