the TOE doesn't have anything to say about the idea that space aliens or a generic 'god' might have started the whole process. It makes no hypothesis about that. It puts it in the 'we don't know and there is no evidence for it one way or the other' bin.

I *said* spare me the pre-programmed in-the-box regurgitated answers, I have heard all of them. Will it help if I say I do see the pre-programmed logic in them??

*Why* can't the TOE say something about origin of life??

Just because you were taught it can't?

Just because you were taught you should not think out of that box?

This is my whole point!!

Think out-of-the box for a change!!

With entrenched thinking like this Darwin's theory would never have never become accepted at all, and worse we would still believe the earth was flat!

Challenge the status quo, after all, Darwin himself did!

You can't challenge something with nothing. How to argue against a scientific theory.

I am only programmed to respond to rational questions. If you have any other questions please press 1. If you'd like to hear about our other products, please press 2. If you'd like to repeat your question and get a different preprogrammed responder, please press 3.

" *Why* can't the TOE say something about origin of life??"

For the same reason that quantum mechanics can't, or that economic theory can't. It is outside the scope of the theory.
The TOE ONLY deals with self-replicating organisms. It does not pretend to be a theory of everything and anything. It has boundaries, like all scientific theories.

Again this claim of Omniscience. All Bow!

*Why* can't the TOE say something about origin of life??

Because it isn't purview of the theory. It concerns what happened after life began, not how it began.

Think out-of-the box for a change!!

OK, if life cannot come out of a dead Universe, then what conclusion do you draw?
