It can also refer to the transformations of simple chemical precursors into more complex, more stable, ones, given an input of energy.

You capitalized the first letter when it was not capitalized in the quoted sentence. In fact, that sentence reads:

"The second use of chemical evolution or chemosynthesis is as a hypothesis to explain how life might possibly have developed or evolved from non-life (see abiogenesis)."

The sentence before it is:

"The first refers to the theories of evolution of the chemical elements in the universe following the Big Bang and through nucleosynthesis in stars and supernovas."

I think you're being deliberately deceptive! Jerk.

Why? The process never completes in humans, it continues until they die and thereafter. So too with the rest of existence.
So do you feel it is okay to end that process whenever you want or
desire?

Post on topic or stop posting Kelly. The process of Evolution hasn't ended with humans. We just can't see the changes happening right now because of the timescale involved.

In other news: Over 2^8 posts and still no sign of a valid alternative.

You post how and where and when you want to post, I'll do the same.
Conversations take many twists and turns on and off topic, and some
times they go off and come back on, you want to be forum monitor
get a job as one.

Fine, bring up your damn Evolution = Murder point if you wish but just watch when everyone tells you that you're wrong. As they always do because you always are.

ah jeez!!!
Firstly, my usage of the word "NO" was referring to a different question (look carefully and you'll see that I quoted this different question)

Secondly, this statement of yours is a *misguided* follow up to the question: Do you believe that absolute truth exists? giving an answer of "no" (even though I didn't actually give it) here is not making any such *absolute statements*

Thirdly, I took you on here: http://www.redhotchess.com/board/showthread.php?threadid=53463&page=3
I don't want to play the same game twice!😴

Explain the evolution of 'right' and 'wrong' while you're at it.

By saying that Kelly is 'wrong' you are implying that you are 'right'. You were making an absolute truth claim. In light of evolutionary theory, explain how 'right' and 'wrong' evolved, and how you know that you are right and Kelly is wrong.
