Heliocentric cosmology is a materialistic explanation of the universe. It supposes some very unlikely things to occur in order for it to havebrought about the numerous transformations from interstellar dust to planetary ecology. If there is any sort of an intelligent designer that created the universe, the more reasonable explanation is that these transformations were achieved by the intelligent designer who created the universe.

(The next sentence is meaningless because had any such thing been disproven then the evolutionary model would've been discarded already.) Regardless, astronomy is similarly always trying to 'catch up' with science in order to 'explain away' the objections presented by new scientific discoveries. That happens to be the sort of thing which scientists do regardless of whatever the Flat Earth society wishes to believe.

And your whole post in no way addresses the point I made in #206 about evolution requiring that there not be an intelligent designer for it to be true.

The heliocentric theory does not require that there not be a God. Evolution does because as I said, an intelligent designer is a much more reasonable explanation for the transformation of species than materialism once it has been established that there is an intelligent designer which created life. So yes, abiogenesis is essential for the theory of evolution to be true.
