I recently viewed a question in which the asker didn't really ask a question, which seems to be becoming more and more acceptable these days. The "Question" had to do with evoloution and how it exists whether christians want it to or not. He kept yelling at people trying to disprove abiogenesis as an argument against evoloution.
If you can disprove abiogenesis, isn't evoloution moot point? If abiogenesis is true, it proves the need for a God and it doesn't matter if God chose to use thousands of years to shape life, (although biblical evidence is against it)

Life can't naturally select itself into existence. What I'm saying is that Evoloution doesn't matter at all because it doesn't explain how life got here in the first place. so at the very least, disproving abiogenesis makes evoloution useless as an argument against God.

Moires Fate: What are you talking about???
Abiogenesis is Life creating itself for non-life. What kind of theory is going to emerge if we can disprove it?
Hmm... maybe some all powerful being put life on earth... I'll have to think about that.

Well, thanks Mr. Irreverend for that thoughtful, intelligent answer.
Definitely yes. But you have to feel for the evolutionists. Their entire theory rests on a foundation that has no proof and all logic is against (abiogenesis), and some of them spend their time trying to convince people that they are not saying anything about religion, while others do everything in their power to convert Christians and other theists to their cause and, lacking that, trying to rub what little evidence they have in the Christians' noses while prohibiting schoolteachers from discussing any of the problems with evolution. It seems to me a little like running around tidying up the deck while the boat goes under because of the huge hole in the bottom.
By the way, all of you who are lecturing us on what abiogenesis is and how it doesn't disprove evolution, please think for a second. The point is that if abiogenesis is false, it DOES NOT MATTER IN THE LEAST about the rest of the theory of evolution. The entire anti-God gig is blown. You know that. It's not about science - it's about being anti-Christian. The very atheists' answers on this and many other questions here on Y!A show that.

Not really, as abiogenesis and evolution aren't the same theory. Even if you found a way to conclusively "prove" that abiogenesis did not occur the way it is currently theorized, that is ALL you would have proved. It doesn't mean that evolution didn't occur. Beyond that, proving that abiogenesis didn't happen STILL wouldn't prove the existence of a deity, and it certainly wouldn't prove that the Judeo-Christian deity exists. There are lots of different creation myths, and all are equally valid scientifically.

ask your self what's the purpose of existence. If it got here approximately as maximum every physique is taught in school primary simply by fact the great Bang theory which abiogenesis is a element of the theory. Then no person has any purpose to exist. the only purposes now are to intensify evolution and proceed reproducing. If that's real then the united states of america had no appropriate to give up loopy Hitler and we have no appropriate to imprison rapists simply by fact they could be reaping rewards society. Plus no attractiveness to older generations considering each era could be much less developed. issues have been shown for the advent theory merely look on the Human Genome challenge and the Human family members tree. They traced every physique returned to a minimum of one guy and one women. via DNA

Evolution is about how species adapt and change. It has nothing to do with how life first arose.
And how exactly would abiogenesis prove that there needs to be a creator god, much less yours? Your logic does not add up and I do not think you even understand what abiogenesis is.

What are you talking about? Why would it then need a god to start it? You're grasping at straws.
Besides, abiogensis is just a hypothesis and hasn't been fully tested.
Honestly, get your information right.
Why do Christians keep saying "Well if this is proven wrong, that proves we're right". No, it doesn't work that way. You don't get an automatic "get out of jail free" card.
If its proven wrong, all that means is that another hypothesis will be out there to replace it.

Where did our emotions 'evolve' from? How do we feel sadness,anger,love hate jealousy anticipation remorse happiness rage hurt joy and a host of other emotions.
Could we REALLY have gotten this from a rock/soup millions of years ago?

cells capable of converting light into energy form spontaneously from elements in a deep space environment.
UF scientists have created self replicating artificial DNA using 6 artificial nucleotides.
Is that life?

Creation is definitely a myth. Evolution is probably true.
