"The probability of any complex event, such as the formation of a hurricane at a particular time and place, is essentially zero. and yet hurricanes form"

That statement is so ignorant and absurd that I almost don't know where to start.

How do you define "place," and "form?" - The probability that a dust devil will form on a particular day, somewhere in a newly mowed hay field in Kansas in the month of August is almost 100%. How many hours, and how many square miles of ocean constitute a particular time and place for the formation of a hurricane? Is there any place in the mid Atlantic where a hurricane has not ever formed? How much of the Atlantic is justifyably the mid Atlantic?

Now how can you relate any of that to the probability of the random abiogenesis of a single cell? This is totally unlike hurricane formation, since as you said, hurricanes form, and we know where, when, and how they do. No sane meterologist would ever say that the formation of a hurricane at any particular place in the mid Atlantic in September is improbable. Nobody has ever witnessed a single cellular abiogenetic event anywhere, at any time, and any person who would state that such an event were probable in any place, of any size, over any period of time of any length could hardly be called sane, since no evidence has ever been produced offering any measurable proof that it has ever happened.

Pardon me, but you seem to lack the cognition to grasp what the concept probability even is.

It took you over three days to get around to that. You're slowing up. No matter. As I've said, it's easy to find your idiotic posts on my own.

no they do NOT teach it as a theory, my friend. my 15 year old stepdaughter was devastated when we told her it was a theory. she keeps demanding it has been proven - because that was how she was taught it. when we asked her why she thought it was called "the theory of evolution" she said she'd never heard it called that before. hmmmm.

Now this is an old thread!

Science and religion deal with different subject matters.

If someone is brought up with a completely religious background, believing in global floods and the like, the results of scientific investigations of the natural world, as explored by scientists, will come as a big shock.

I would not tend to blame that on the scientists.
