Is anybody but a creationist going to see why this is hilarious?
No. Only a creationist would be ignorant enough to think this was funny.
Interesting, in light of the certainty that some creationists adamently believe that all existence is based on mathematical formula, the universe and all that is therein. They believe it all adds up and balances. When that formula is found and solved, all the worlds will be astonished at its simplicity.
Creationists are not solo on ignorance nor closed-mindedness.
Don't you agree?

I have no idea what you just said.

No, but they're certainly way out in front with it.
You have no idea what I just said? There is no shame in that.

I sure agree with that. We all fall into the trap and no one is without ignorance on many, many topics.
However this thread has exemplified in a very crisp manner that the creationists seem to specialize in willful ignorance and closed-mindedness.
This must be a theory developed by a concentrated body of those willfully ignorant determined to point fingers away from themselves and find comfort in phariseeism.

I believe abiogenesis is possible. But you lack first ingredient, so it is more than proper not to buy into it and to argue against it.

If you quote, do so accurately and with context. Percy could not have said that. I checked, and indeed he didn't.
Indeed, my apologies, indeed!

What ingredients do you need for abiogenesis?
First ingredient.

Could you be more specific? What's the first ingredient?
I am specific. First ingredient is the one you don't have, from which all matter flows.

Sure we do. We call them elements. Check out the periodic table.
Elements need a first ingredient, and you don't have it.
