As it stands today (in the real world) all life must come from life. That is what we call a Law.

BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Please... I'm BEGGING you... at least wait until beer-thirty before springing such a whopper on me!

now, let's see here...

Sure it does, since Macro evolution had to have a start, and if life cannot come from non-life, there is no Evolution(sic)-(sic)period.

hrmn... abiogenesis being necessary for the ToE (speciation due to mutation and selection in the populations of imperfectly self-replicating living organisms)... ahhh, nope: Doesn't really matter how life got started - the ToE only applies once a population of imperfectly self-replicating living organisms, competing for resources and subject to environmental factors, is extant. Abiogenesis, alien seeding, a glowing skypixie waving his phallus... makes no nevermind how the population arose.

I truly dislike having to reiterate simple explanations, so, please, have you got it?

I doubt you do (or will admit that you have if you do) but you cannot henceforth honestly claim to have never been informed of the distinction.

As a side note: Will you PLEASE ask your puppetmasters to concretely define what your side means by the term "kind", and get them to set a fixed standard of where they hold "micro" evolution is seperated from "macro" evolution - including an explanation of mechanism by which accumulations of minor mutation-based alterations in phenotype CANNOT add up to speciation? That'd be a help, and would be uncharacteristically polite of your side to do.

As to this: How could any Creationist make that statement when Evolution hasn't proven that life can come from non-life.(sic: "?")

Creationist participants on these CREVO threads have made variations of that very statement ("But living things DESIGNED THAT EXPERIMENT, so all that proves is that Intelligent Design is a fact and that life still came from life!") in response to opponents who have made statements to the effect that sooner or later biological scientists WILL take inert components and create living organisms.

Now, again, PLEASE: wait another 45 minutes or so before posting another staggeringly funny demonstration of nonsense. Make that an hour - surviving another such exemplar of lunacy will take more than one bottle of MGD.

Thanks for reminding me that a prime is coming up.
