abiogenesis

I think that's his point.

Panspermia, while fascinating, certainly isn't a new idea and would merely move the locus of abiogenesis off-planet.Are you proposing that life has always existed?

Actually, no: he means that your ability to make untrue statements is limited only by your ability to make any sense at all.He may be wrong. Show me.Nota bene: Take a deep breath, lose the anger and genuinely try to make us understand. Even if we disagree, we're not so bad.

Well, if you call his position nonsense, you can hardly be surprised when he calls your position drivel--and where does that get us?Perhaps Dr Adequate understands your positions and your reasons for them. I do not: all that is clear to me is that you scorn the BB theory and any notion of abiogenesis--and you're pretty darn angry about it. I understand anger, and I assure you it will do you and the acceptance of your positions nothing but harm.I think the BB theory and abiogenesis make sense, not because I am professionally competent in either field, but because people who are have offered me explanations in plain language that I find persuasive.I assume you want to be persuasive as well, or you wouldn't be here. Your angry rush of words is not persuasive.I don't think I've given you any reason to be angry with me, so why not explain your position on abiogenesis in simple layman's terms that I can understand?
It's worth a try.You can always be angry again later.

You're right--I hadn't read your original post. I'll go back and do that, but I probably won't be able to reply until tomorrow.

Hi, Alfred. Since my only participation in this thread has been to try to understand your position, a final attempt will be my summation.If I understand you correctly, you are suggesting that life is an intrinsic property of the universe, requiring neither abiogenesis nor supernatural creation. I see no other way for this to be so except to posit an eternally existing universe.What I don't understand is what evidence you have to support your view.Perhaps you could use your chance to post a summation before the thread closes to sum up that evidence.
