The statistical probability that organic structures and the most precisely harmonized reactions that typify living organisms would be generated by accident, is zero.

The statement is misquoted and removed from context so as to inaccurately simplify and overstate the authors' statement. | The exact phrase is (see also above): The probability that at ordinary temperatures a macroscopic number of molecules is assembled to give rise to the highly ordered structures and to the coordinated functions characterizing living organisms is vanishingly small. The idea of spontaneous genesis of life in its present form is therefore highly improbable, even on the scale of the billions of years during which prebiotic evolution occurred...
