I think the two theories are worthy of debate, which I thought may have been the point of the original post.
The obervation of varied and complex life forms is sufficient to form a hypothesis concerning its origin, even if that theory is based on prior knowledge or belief. The mathematical probability that life just spontaneously popped out of a chemical soup is so remote that the suggestion of a designer is not absurd. The reference to rocks (chemicals) was metaphorical. The idea that the simplest strand of DNA just assembled by chance collisions of molecules is like 1 in 10^84 - quite far fetched. That number by the way, came from an evolutionist whose name I can't remember.
You have not successfully read and comprehended post 49. Creationism is not a theory. Not even close. It can't be falsified. It can't be tested in any way. It makes no predictions. It's based on no verifiable observations. It's a claim, nothing more. It is most definitely not worthy of debate in a scientific context. Study the situation some more. Until then, have a nice day.
