Interesting thread.

Did you guys know that some of the theories on evolution dictate that first life was not even a whole cell formation? In fact they are stipulating that some of the organelles existed separate from cellular hosts.

For example... Mitochondria has it own DNA. They believe that this organelle once lived outside of the cell, and of course by chance one happened to get with a cell and they began to live symbiotically. Now this does not even explain what happened to all the other exocellular mitochondria. I guess they all went and found their own cells to inhabit afterwards. No explanation as to why they did not attack each other, and whats even better is the fact that we have never witnessed an organelle natively living outside of a host.

That does not even speak to the transition of prokaryotes or eukaryotes.

It is true... evolution leaves MORE questions behind than it can even theorize an answer too.
