HUH?
Buz has never said that life is necessary for evolution to happen.
Buz defined biogenesis very precisely back in
Message 289 as "(chemistry),(biology) the formation of life from self-replicating, but not living molecules ".
A magician making dust figures and blowing life into them or a magician speaking life into existence is not the same as "(chemistry),(biology) the formation of life from self-replicating, but not living molecules ".
You bring up yet another possibility "that life is a phenomenon of infinite duration into the past" at least into the past of this universe.
But Buz has never said "life is necessary for evolution to happen", had he said that then the most that might have been said is "No shit."
Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!
