From the article:
Firstly, it must be able to explain where the enormous quantity of information came from to produce the very first living organism.
Just how much information was required to produce the first living thing? To answer that you need to know what the first living thing looked like. Do you imagine it was a worm? Maybe a single cell? Maybe a bacterium? All very complex beings and impossible to just happen by accident, on that we likely agree. But maybe that first life was simpler than that bacterium, simpler even that an amino acid? Maybe it was an organic molecule floating in a lifeless soup of organic molecules. Similar molecules might attach themselves together and continue forming long molecular chains. Growth. Eventually they would grow so long that they would break apart. Reproduction. Molecules that were better at growing and splitting would monopolize the available resources better. Evolution.
Growth + Reproduction + Evolution = LIFE
Or maybe you're making baby talk.
