The theory of evolution assumes that life originated from "natural processes,"

Nope, the theory of evolution does not, in any way, address the ultimate origins of life. Life could have had a supernatural origin, and the theory of evolution would still work.

Now, the theory of evolution itself asserts no supernatural forces intervening as a driving mechanism, but let's be fair: no scientific theory considers the supernatural because the supernatural is completely outside of the scope of scientific observation.

However, it is also true that those on the "evolution" side of the fence tend to be ignorant of their own assumptions, and the weaknesses thereof. Same crime, albeit with different symptoms.

Perhaps you could offer up such an assumption?

A rather broad brush condemnation, don't you think?

Well, I did say "many", not "all". Perhaps I should have been more specific with something like "the majority of the most vocal". After all, it might not apply to the vast majority of creationists out there, though it certainly applies to the vast majority who choose to make themselves known.

And it is clearly true that willful ignorance of "reality" is not limited to those on the "ID" side of the fence.

True, as evident when Richard Dawkins tries to discuss anything beyond his field of academic expertise. However, the majority of the most vocal creationists seem to have a knack for exposing abysmal ignorance of that on which they claim to have intimate knowledge.

The logic -- not to mention the "origin of life" researchers -- would beg to differ with you on that.

I've offered several on this thread.
