I don't know the "Evolution is mathematically discredited" stuff you're talking about.

What? You've never heard of Freddy Hoyle? Where ya been? There continues work on the chances of the alignment of acids in the simplest bacteria etc, etc. The more we learn about the "simple" forms of life of which Darwin and Huxley were ignorant, the greater the odds against any evolutionary nonsense. But the odds are already less than statistical zero so smaller odds won't convince the thick-skulled evo thumper.

Note Dataman's brazen dishonesty here. Fred Hoyle never said that evolution was impossible. It's true that he believed abiogenesis impossible, but he did not doubt evolution itself. Dishonest Dataman wants to pretend that abiogenesis is part of evolution, even though he can't cite a single scientific resource that includes abiogenesis as part of the theory.

The odds of a bacterium springing up from nothing in a single instant.

Which is completely irrelevant since no one thinks this ever occurred (except creationists perhaps).

But you knew this already.
