A simple mechanism could have been decisive for the development of life

Je n'avais pas besoin de cette hypothèse-là.

We are disusing something so ridiculously as we were trying to explain how a baby alone could possibly win the FIFA World Cup 2018

Apologists have used the same argument for the last several hundred years and have done nothing to push the discussion forward.

This is one in a number of papers exploring how biological phase separation/condensation may have provided favourable microenvironments for early life development.

For a nice primer on what biological phase separation is, see this (non-paywalled) general audience article from earlier this year in Nature (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-03070-2).

Some other work on phase separation as a means for primordial evolution and biochemistry includes a paper from Christine Keating in 2012 (WAY WAY ahead of the curve) [1], elegant work by Frank Jülicher [2], and more recently a nice paper from Keating and Phil Bevilacqua [3].

These papers (IMO) tie rather nicely into some theoretical predictions on self-organization from Jeremy England [4].

So the existence of something is proof that it was created purposefully?
