There is no evidence either way. Personal belief: NO.
Has nothing to do with evidence but you did say NO!
So you think the building blocks of life can just magically
come together and spark life in an organism that was waiting
how ever long it takes. In a puddle some where, rather than
what is obvious to me. That the permutations of protein
to protein interactions being 10 to the seventy nine billionth
power and only one will work? A being only of superior mind
could be responsible for transient information succeeding.
The mind is without doubt more likely than no intelligence
involved. This mind would also explain the spark of life that
is truly the miracle never to be replicated by humans ever
any way.
I think therefore you and science are making the extraordinary claim
that requires extraordinary evidence.
You seem to be hiding behind a call for evidence when there really
is no need to prove the obvious?
When scientists can create life then they can sell their evolution.
But if you can't prove the magic you suggest you certainly can't have
evolution.

All that has been posted so many times it's beyond comprehension that even an idiot like you can't understand it.
You and your pal are more evidence that there is no evidence for anything you propose. You belong to a wacko cult whose goal is to perpetrate fraud and financially capitalize on the guppies who pay to listen to you. Did you ever pay the GoFundMe contributors back when they took down your fraudulent crowdfunding effort? I doubt it.
You're a cheap shot, Cooperton. You've been flattened so many times it's a wonder you can stand up straight (maybe you don't).
Anyone who has been following these threads knows by now that there is no observable verifiable examples of a population of organisms evolving. All organisms remain essentially the same: fruit flies remain fruit flies, mice remain mice, microbes remain microbes, etc. Evolution doesn't happen, despite over a hundred years of scientists trying to do so through artificial selection..
Evolution may be defined as any net directional change or any cumulative change in the characteristics of organisms or populations over many generations—in other words, descent with modification… It explicitly includes the origin as well as the spread of alleles, variants, trait values, or character states. (Endler 1986: 5)
There's only one planet with life on it. If intelligent design was responsible you can be sure that it wouldn't stop at just one.

What is so obvious? You still haven't explained what the answer is or how you figured it out. Please elaborate.

And here's proof positive that you're an idiot. Evolution is not about origins or abiogenesis. It's about CHANGE.
You need to go back to school or get a few real biology books so that you know what you're talking about.

Sure organisms can adapt via allele drift, epigenetics, and so on, but they can never become something other than what they are. Fruit flies always remain fruit flies, despite countless generations of artificial generation trying to evolve them in a lab.

Phantom, stop being so childish. You are incapable of responding without resorting to insult. If the science were unanimous regarding evolution you wouldn't have to consistently resort to insult and semantics.
Evolution has never been demonstrated in a lab because it does not happen.

Question fer ya!
Do you agree that a mind superior to our own is the most likely explanation
for the origins of life on this planet?
There is no evidence either way. Personal belief: NO.
There's only one planet with life on it. If intelligent design was responsible you can be sure that it wouldn't stop at just one.
There has been no communication that can be verified as an intelligent transmission from extraterrestrial agencies. This suggests either we are alone or we are too stupid to detect their transmissions and therefore ill prepared for this kind of debate.
No one has tried to invade our planet even once, and if humans are any indication of what intelligence looks like, that's a little weird.
Just some notes that draw a pretty compelling picture in my mind.

Still waiting on you to prove that Nucleotide monomers can polymerize into their primary structure. Also still waiting on you to tell how you can solve for age of a specimen in radiometric dating if you don't have the initial concentration. These are two examples of how you refuse to admit you are wrong. You would take your bias to the grave, and are incapable of intelligible conversation without resorting to insult.
Go ahead and continue to believe in the faith of evolution, but you could try being a decent cordial person on the side.

urely that would be easier to demonstrate than a natural process that takes thousands of years to occur,
Some of us can achieve PhDs, beleive in higher powers AND also understand evolution is real.
I see NOTING perfect about any of mans gods they all have the same anger issues .
