As someone that's been studying a bit of biochem lately perhaps you might
be able to help me out with some insights from reading the books of
Rael. .

If the Elohim were alive, composed of RNA/DNA/proteins etc,
from where did *they* originate ?

You see as a poor Earth bound science student I'm particularly interested
in how the first cell that was to be the precursor to multicelled organisms
managed to form against a backdrop of what we earth scientists and
science students consider to be the laws of thermodynamics.

I'm not real happy with partial explanation that have been offered by
folk like Paul Davies, I think, from memory, that argue that gravity and
information need to be taken into account in just the right way to
counterbalance the laws of thermodynamics.

It would be real neighbourly if you, on the basis of you reading of Rael
could clear up that little quandary about the origins of the first cell up 
for
me. That is the first cell including the universe in which the Elohim live,
so that if the Elohim are made of cells and are older than us, its that
cell I'm interested in.
