OK, so what's the simplest self-replicating organism that doesn't require a host to replicate and how many genes does it have?
We're not talking about "organisms" with "genes" at all. We're talking about abiogenesis.

kleinman has 11 published papers, and you guys talk to him like he's a tin-foil hat. no wonder the discourse on this site is stale.
There's only so much you can say to a tin-foil hat.

There is plenty more to say to the tin-foil hat wearing fish-to-mammals aficionados.
More to say? That's rich, coming from the guy who keeps repeating the same childish mantra over and over again.
​
And at least try to get it right: it isn't fish to mammals. Fish and mammals are distant cousins. They have a common ancestor, not a direct line of descent. Fish-great-great-great... grandpa was also mammal-great-great-great... grandpa.

The multiplication rule of probabilities is not a mantra, it is a mathematical fact of life.
The mantra is "fish-to-mammal aficionado".

The multiplication rule of probabilities is the reason you fish-to-mammals aficionados are wrong.
Thay's not an excuse for you to keep repeating that silly, childish mantra.

I didn't make that one up.
If doesn't matter who made it up. You should be mature enough not to keep repeating it.

But it does a really good job describing those who think that fish evolve into mammals....
It really doesn't.
