b: particles and forces
What:
"Trying to explain the origin of life in terms of descent with modification is like trying to explain the origin of the universe in terms of particles and forces that did not exist until after the Big Bang. Conclusion I have argued in this essay that Richard Dawkins is a less able guide to life's complexities than Mark Twain."
