It's not possible".<br/><br/>So here's two thought experiments for him<br/><br/>(a) the first one is to reframe such as "What are the kinds of things that would need to take place so that it would be possible for a single celled organism to evolve into a multicelled organism"<br/><br/>(b) the second thought experiment concerns infinite regression. The question for him is "which aliens made the aliens so that they did not have, in their turn, to evolve from a single cell?" And so on back through the regression.

Unfortunately only the Mormons have come calling and they're not nearly as hot. If John Travolta showed up on my doorstep, I would totally join the Scientologists.
