“You completely miss the point. If we evolved from an abiogenic starting place, it has happened hundreds of thousands or millions of times.”
How did I miss your point? I specifically pointed out that you are relying on assuming that abiogenesis is a given, when there is no scientific basis for making that assumption. Once it is clear that this assumption is NOT a given, the rest of your argument is unsupportable.
“The only argument against it is the belief that God created us and intentionally did not create any other life anywhere else.”
Nonsense, I didn’t mention God at all, you’re the one bringing up God. Your argument is flawed from its foundation on a scientific level.
There is also no science supporting a creator snapping life into existence with magic, OR an abiogenic start.
The fact is that neither point of view has an unassailable scientific explanation for the magic moment carbon based life began.
But if it began through an electrochemical process, the same conditions exist on millions of planets. You are being obtuse.
If one accepts that God created life on earth deliberately, and deliberately did not do so elsewhere. Then cool. But of course, at that point, trying to use science as your tool is.... awkward.
And I didn’t say you did mention God....moron. I said there are only two explanations. That somehow through some natural process, we sprang out of this environment. OR, that God created us.
And neither one precludes in any way life happening the same way somewhere else. If you know a third theory, id love to hear it.
“I specifically pointed out that you are relying on assuming that abiogenesis is a given,”
And I never said its a given. I said if life evolved from nothing, that it has happened again and again. Google the word “IF”.
