Scientists create artificial life in laboratory
We've really done it. We have done what only our imagined gods could do, create life. Possibly one of the most ancient of science fiction possibilities, the creation of life, and we've done it. This holds practical purposes for our situation today of course, but what I'm most impressed with is the fact of it. With this artificial life, we have real substantial proof that the creation of life is a scientific endeavor and not one of religions.
The only thing we really need to prove at this point is how to create life using only natural processes. I believe there was an experiment done in the past proving you could create very basic building blocks for life, but a completely new life form has not been done yet. This artificial life should help us in understanding how life is made and hopefully within the next few years we will create a life form through natural processes. When that day comes, I hope religious institutions finally die out.
