The RNA world hypothesis: the worst theory of the early evolution of life (except for all the others)<sup>a</sup>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>The problems associated with the RNA world hypothesis are well known. In the following I discuss some of these difficulties, some of the alternative hypotheses that have been proposed, and some of the problems with these alternative models. From a biosynthetic –...
