"There is no chemical property that makes it more likely for DNA to just happen to line up in just such a way as to create a living cell, let alone for the DNA to just happen to be surrounded by exactly the right materials to interact with to create a cell from scratch.

This is one of those silly initial conditions I mentioned. Abiogenesis is just that, the development of what we would consider life from self replicating non-life. No mention of DNA as the initial molecule other than by creationists.

When you find life without DNA, we'll discuss the feasibility of such life coming into existence by accident; until then, you're grasping at straws with the desperation of a religionist whose pet creation myth is under scientific attack.

The most telling argument against evolutionary abiogenesis is how many of your fellows are trying to distance evolution from abiogenesis.
