Re: A bried opinion
I could go on making these peronsal points but it would only end up angering evos

You anger "evos" more by evading the questions.

Re: The Answers are in Genesis
They don't. That's how science works. When you have a phenomenon, you observe it. That obsevation or one similar to it must be repeatable. Then you hypothesize about that phenomenon. Then you test the hypothesis. What is the phenomenon that suggests life came from chemicals? Before you answer to quick, ask yourself if the phenomenon is observable and repeatable. In abiogenesis it is arationalization based on the philosophy of naturalism that yields the hypotheses. That is a priori knowledge or rationalization. It is faith based.
​
No it isn't.It would be faith based only if the finding was declared positive proof of, in which there could be no possible otherwise account of, thus nonfalsifiable. Therefore it would not be science and would be faith based. That is why science relies on theories not proof.

Re: The Answers are in Genesis
Faith is a belief in something that is unseen or unproven.
​
That is the point if one states that a scientific theory is proven, then it is on faith since all theories are falsifiable
​
I would argue that all of the current hypotheses within abiogenesis are unfalsifiable.
​
Why? If would be falsifiable if one could find evidence that under no conditions of the possibilities of a primal atmosphere which the substances such as purines, pyrimidines, amino acids, pentose sugars, etc could be be formed.
