Water is no accident
Laing, RL. 1985.  NCC83 :89-94. CELD ID 19268

Abstract
Evolutionists have long believed methane, ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water to be the basic building blocks upon which all life evolved (Miller et al., 1974; Gallant, 1975). This is in direct conflict with the teachings of Scripture, which indicate that water is the most important basic molecule for all living organisms on earth, both flora and fauna. All organic matter is made by plants, or by plants that have been assimilated by animals; from water, carbon dioxide, and minerals, including nitrogen. We are told in the first book of the Bible, the first chapter, that even before the earth was given form, the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters (Gen. 1:2). God said, let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth. And God created every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly after their kind... and God saw that it was good (Gen. 1:20,21). God did not say that methane, ammonia, and carbon dioxide bring forth life, He said let the waters bring forth life.
