To say that it came from 'nothing' is a huge understatement.
People also neglect the fact that life didn't just 'pop' into existence, it took millions of years.

A leading theory among biologists is to do with something called RNA or Ribonucleic Acid.
RNA has the ability to speed up it's own synthesis using an internal catalyst.
From there, Lipid membranes are known to form naturally from different chemical compounds providing a membrane for metabolism and the formation of single celled organisms.

It would be easier to say that basically there were a lot of chemicals around in the sea those days.
Adding them with the heat near thermal vents they combined to form different compounds which then proceeded with the process of abiogenesis, forming life.

I believe God made this earth. Because if you look at what novel said or other things like evolving from Apes/Monkeys and ask yourself if we did come from them or that why aren't we still coming from that to this day think about.

If you're asking why isn't life still forming it's because the water has changed, there are less chemical compounds now than there were millions of years ago and in less dense concentrations.
It is also said that conditions near ocean vents are not the same as they were millions of years ago, and the temperature may not permit life to form.

If you're asking why aren't apes evolving, they are.
To understand this, you need to understand evolution.
Humans evolved from apes in central Africa, the apes that could run faster and therefore more upright than the others outran predators due to the lack of trees.
This gene allowing them to straighten their backs further and balance upright was passed on to the next generations.
Over time more and more apes began to walk upright because they had this gene.
Where they would've swung through trees to escape predators, they now ran.

Over time their bodies became accustomed to the heat, shedding hair all the while growing more intelligent.
Now, while this was happening in central Africa, apes in what we would now call Europe were fine swinging through trees.
They didn't need to evolve the ability to stand upright and run.
Instead, their fingers got longer to grip branches more easily and firmly, their tails extended and still do to this day.

That is why there are still apes living alongside humans.

Novel is completely right. Life starting was the result of millions of years of probability. There are base amino acids that are essential for life, these amino acids occur naturally in places that Novel mentioned, such as hydrothermal vents. If these amino acids joined in the right sequence, again, things that Novel mentioned then become possible.

Do not assume life "popped" into existence, absolutely everything you see around you is the result of millions upon millions of years of evolution and specialisation.

Unfortunately, there are no actual answers.

There are only theories, this is why it is called "The Big Bang Theory" .
The theory for evolution works off the basis, that all living things evolved from a predecessor, this does not just work over the course of a few centuries, it is said that evolution happens over millions of years.

A theory to better explain this is the theory of 'natural selection', where members of a species with the better traits are the ones that would actually live leaving the ones with the worse traits to die off, leaving only the most desirable trait left.



I'm sorry if I couldn't really explain myself well enough, heres something to help!

I just have one huge problem with this theory. Why are there no inbetweens? Like creatures still in the process or any type of evidence of there ever being anything like that.
By imbatween i mean monkeys that are still in the process of evolveing to humans. This is the biggest problem i have with most of the theorys.

These so called 'Missing links' are being discovered all of the time.
The argument that there were no links went on for such a long time that people think it still carries over, while it doesn't.

There are lots of different transitional fossils between apes and humans, here's the wikipedia link to a list if you want them.

Monkeys at the moment aren't evolving into humans.
Human evolution was completely circumstantial, monkeys right now don't need to evolve into humans.
They might evolve into something similar or something completely different, it depends completely on what is affecting them and what they have to adapt to.

how do you know we have stopped evolving scientist believe that we are still evolving today i have seen photos and we are getting smaller
(everything will get smaller)

Did I say we have stopped evolving?
If I did I didn't mean to.
