@eladar saidNo idea. Evolution is provable, but who LUCA was is not.
@wildgrass
So my edit. No earthly idea how life began.
I have a question for you. Does the concept of abiogenesis contradict religious doctrine? If so, why?

@wildgrass saidProvable nased on your assumptions. Of course all other assumptions are laughable from your point of view.

If one is to believe the creation account God created everything not simply natural mechanics.
@kellyjay saidA follow up on the tour talk since he said something he regretted during that talk.
I put these in another thread here and after thinking about it I think if there is any interest at all they should have their own. Heads up these are not in support of Abiogenesis, these are not heavy on faith but chemistry.

@eladar saidWhy did you write that I was laughing at others' assumptions?
@wildgrass
Unknowable simply believed.
@eladar saidDefine credible. Does your belief system teach bigotry?
@wildgrass
Because you believe the only credible belief system is yours.
@wildgrass saidSorry to interrupt your discussion, but I know you said you like to read.

I don't have the lectures in print but there some fallout for the Tour talk and this PDF was generated. Not a lot but something to look at.

@eladar saidAre you referring to the question regarding the congruency of evolution and religion? I think you dismissed it out of hand. Countless bible studies would disagree (with references).

As to your question, it is nonsensical.
@wildgrass
You are the one that brought up social justice. I am afraid you are too caught up in your personal opinion to have any true discussion. You think too much of yourself.
