Not saying that I support this, but it gives an interesting touch to the creation of Adam in the Bible. In Genesis 2,7 it says:"Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being." [1]

In the abstract of the paper it says "living organisms such as space-resistant and space-hardy bacteria, viruses, more complex eukaryotic cells, fertilised ova and seeds have been continuously delivered ever since to Earth".

Besides from skipping lots of evolutionary steps, if those organisms have been delivered to earth by some cosmic object (a hand of God?), then man ultimately formed from that dust.

I am by no means religious, but it's an interesting thought experiment.
