The '''Miller-Urey experiment''' was the first attempt to reverse-engineer the conditions in [[earth]]'s [[atmosphere]] that produced [[abiogenesis]] – the production of life from non-life. By recent analysis, the experiment did produce as rich a mixture of [[amino acid]]s as life would require. But it produced those acids in a racemic mixture, and even secular scientists are not willing to accept this as the strong evidence of how life began because the DNA molecule is many orders of magnitude more complex than amino acids.

A helpful analogy is in equating the amino acids to bricks and DNA to a very complex house. Creating a few bricks is far removed from building a house.
