    I gave up on that one a long time ago. As a youth I was pretty resistant to the chemical stew explanation. Had problems with the God explanation also. Our current public education system has no problem with the chemical stew explanation and studiously avoids any honest discussion of the problematic issues.

    The aliens kick started it so they can track the signal back here!

    It would take that thing many thousands of years of travel to get anywhere near where aliens may or may not be.
    Based on the presence of warm salty water and organic molecules on Enceladus alien life could be a helluva lot closer than Voyager 2.
    Yes, only a billion years more till single cell bacteria on Enceladus.
    Maybe. Maybe not.

    Aliens could exist in tangential dimensions of space to us and be a lot "closer" than our concept of 3d space would lead us to believe.

    The origin of life is still not explained by "science". It's a long way from a RNA strand to a single cell bacteria. And its a long way from some chemicals in salt water to a RNA strand. Lot of leaps of faith at the beginning. Not much different than who created God.

    There are some puzzles which may never be solved.
