Originally posted by sonhouseThat's not strictly true. They have said that the mechanism they are using does not exist in nature and likely isn't what produced membranes in the ancient past. I doubt that there were detergents about back then so this mechanism couldn't be the real one.

Originally posted by KeplerThis is true but it is only one small step. If they are successful, they can vary the way the membranes are produced. I think there was work done showing ordinary clay has pockets inside of which membranes can form under the right conditions, which I have no clue as to the exact conditions but that was one claim.

Seriously, I don't think you should mix Greco-Roman myth with Christian myth, RJ will chastise you for that.
