Nope......I don't use my time or brain power trying to discover or research something I will NEVER KNOW, outside of a time machine taking me back billions of years...so I do not postulate about the "origins of life" in any manner. I do not CARE about the origins of life....I accept that life "is" and move on with it.
I don't even say "God didn't do it" (really, who the hell am I to tell anyone that their God doesn't exist just because I don't share their belief? Too bad some believers aren't so accomodating)....only that the empirical evidence that "your God did it" is limited to......a book.......I'll also add the bit of humor that if God created us in "His image".........He is one UGLY God, because Homo habilis was one UGLY dude.
I am never on an anti-religious crusade (heck....been to religious worships more than some that ARE "religious") and only want your religion to be kept out of a science room.....period....it does not belong in a science room. Teach it in any one of the religious studies classes that were available to me.

So you want
our religion kept out of the 'science room'?
What about yours?
Several major proponents of Evolution have admitted that it is a religion.
For example, Michael Ruse said that
‘Evolution is promoted by its practitioners as more than mere science. Evolution is promulgated as an ideology, a secular religiona full-fledged alternative to Christianity, with meaning and morality.’ and that
‘Evolution is a religion. This was true of evolution in the beginning, and it is true of evolution still today.’
So, do you
also want
that kept out of the science room?
Personally, I'm all for teaching
only testable sciences in public school science classes. (hint:
From Goo To You By Way Of The Zoo Evolution isn't testable)
