Answers with Ken Ham - Are Algae Your Ancestors?

This is Ken Ham, on a mission to strengthen the global church with God’s Word. One study of rocks from my homeland of Australia argues that algae were necessary for the evolution of almost everything. They claim that 650 million years ago the conditions were perfect for algae to bloom. This bloom allowed complex life forms to arise, eventually giving rise to humans. So, here we have algae to thank for our existence! Of course, they don’t explain where all the information came from to form complex life! There’s actually no known scientific process that can create the brand-new information necessary for evolution. So, no, we don’t thank algae for our existence. We have the Creator God of the Bible to thank! Dig Deeper Life Requires a Source of Information Inorganic Matter to Unicellular Life-Forms
