What are your thoughts on simulation theory? Do you think that should be banned from schools as well?

still there are recent studies into abiogenesis. in 2014, a group of researchers managed to produce all four components of rna by simulating an asteroid impact in primordial conditions. a 2015 paper showed that the chemical precursors for the synthesis of amino acids, lipids and nucleotides, which would be required in a primitive cell, could have all arisen simultaneously through reactions driven by ultraviolet light

I have nothing to prove. I don't care about evolution or creationism. I believe the religious texts from most major religions, created.
Hmm, that's a lot of conflicting information you must be juggling around in your mind trying to make sense of.
I will have no problem changing my mind when or if science proves anything.
Riiight..
Really not trying to be "that guy" here but..
How can you honestly make a statement like that?

Step one of one million in defining a cell. I am well aware of this study. It proves nothing except you can continue to imagine the rest just happened.
The first requirement for life to evolve is to become.
Currently we have no evidence that this is possible. The simplest form of known life could not have spontaneously arose. Currently there is no evidence to suggest that life simpler than a cell has ever existed.

I don't know why you needed to define speciation since I agree with it. I said I Believe all life can be traced back to class/phylum. Even though it has not been proven.
Except I don't believe humans evolved. Science is closer to proving that we could not have evolved from apes than proving that we did. This is where alien theory arises in the scientific community.
I'm no where near as ignorant or unlearned as you believe me to be.
I am both a scientist and a theologian, I am comfortable excepting anything science can prove, and I am educated on the subject.

Umm. I guess I'll have to point out the obvious here by reminding you that your very first #1 point you made in your OP was..

Now, you just admitted to step #1 being done and try to complain because it's only the first step. But the first step is all that was needed to prove you incorrect.
That is a check mate and win my friend. You should congratulate spygeek on his victory and show a little humility at this point rather than continue trying to change your argument.

I'm going to have to go old school with my critique: utter twaddle
This "argument" is constructed of a mashup of false premises. Taxonomic ranks are not steps in evolution but rather an effort to classify relationships between organisms in a meaningful way from which certain conclusions can be drawn. Taxonomic distinctions aren't concrete properties.

That study proves nothing, except chemical compounds necessary for life can form. We have assumed this for ages.
How we get from chemicals to life is not even close to answered by that research. You should probably read it before you continue to comment.

Darwin Buster One: Darwinians have been dead wrong whenever they have claimed that the "genetic matter of ape and humans is 98% identical." The ape and human chromosomes are remarkably divergent and too different for "ape to human evolution" theory to adequately explain. For example, the human Y chromosome has twice as many genes as the chimpanzee Y chromosome and the chromosome structures are not at all similar.
Darwin Buster Two: There are laws of embryology that directly contradict "ape to human evolution." One reason is that genes work together in teams to form body parts during embryonic development. This makes it impossible to add genes to any genome because there is no way to coordinate any new gene with existing genes. Yet "ape to human evolution" requires apes and humans to be able to add genes - for example, the chimpanzee Y chromosome has 37 genes and the human Y chromosome has at least 78 genes.
Darwin Buster Three: The laws of genetics prevent "ape to human evolution" from ever taking place. One reason is there is no genetic mechanism that creates new genes. But "ape to human evolution" relies on apes and humans having the ability to create new genes with new functions. New genes are required in order to have morphological changes, such as gills into lungs or more efficient brains. So called "gene duplication" is not evidence that organisms can create new genes. Although bacteria can duplicate existing genes by mistake through "gene duplication," this only occurs in single sex bacteria and this is not evidence that apes and humans can create new genes with new functions.
Darwin Buster Four: Darwinians have no explanation for why humans and apes have a different number of chromosomes. Darwinians claim that "chromosome fusion" of two ape chromosomes into a single chromosome resulted in humans having only 23 pairs of chromosomes while apes have 24 pairs. But there is not one example of "chromosome fusion" in mammals. Darwinians claim that 1 in 1000 human babies have a "fused chromosome" but this is an out and out lie. They are actually referring to Robertsonian Translocations, which are "translocations" and not fused chromosomes and does not result in a change in the chromosome number. Besides, scientifically derived facts refute "chromosome fusion" can occur in apes or humans.

I think it's a bit too soon in the genome project to claim common ancestor. From what I have read this is still very much speculative.

It is so improbable according to recent research, that we are now looking for a common ancestor.
