Life from lifeless chemicals?

I believe the article you are referencing stated that you can create amino acids from inorganic material.

Lifeless chemicals? I never knew that chemicals had a life! If you mean inorganic chemicals, then you'd be correct in your logic. It's not a question on whether or not we should do it, there are so many things that are involved into bringing life into existence. Even if you put DNA into a tube, at specific sequences that you know could cause life, you'd still have nothing. Life doesn't spontaneously form, atleast, not in vivo.

There has been work done where a group of scientists downloaded the sequence of a Mammalian Virus and placed the DNA into an empty Virus capsule, and injected a Cow with the Virus, the result was that the cow became infected.

Now heres were the line is drawn, Viruses as a rule are classified as non-living organisms, though there is much debate on whether or not they are in fact obligated parasites.

A virus will not replicate on its own in a tube. However, a bacteria will, however in order of it to begin to do that, it must first have the right sequences read in the right order at the right time.

By just adding DNA Polymerase, or RNA Polymerase to a tube of DNA you will yield nothing, perhaps some proteins, but not in any set order.

You seem to like to think of the worst of things. Your ultimate conclusion leads me to this brilliant deduction. Frankenstein's monster was in fact a being who was alive at one time brought back by magical works of fiction, not some "lifeless" chemical as you put it.

Could it be possible that one day we will create life in vivo? Perhaps, but for the time being we must first understand how all the locks work before we dare open the door.

Hope this helps.

Actually, my dear Roadkill, we synthesized urea aver 150 years ago. The gradient between life and non-life is one of difference in degree, not kind.
