Natural selection does not TRY to explain the origins of life.

Physics does not explain the origin of life.

Chemistry does not explain the origihn of life.

Immunology does not explain the origin of life.

Endocrinology does not explain the origin of life.

Cell biology does not explain the origin of life.

Genetics does not explain the origin of life.

Population biology does not explain the origin of life.

Developmental biology does not explain the origin of life.

...............

Unfortunately, many proponents of evolution seem unaware of that. They don’t acknowledge that natural selection requires pre-existing life.

I am fully aware that evolution and natural selection presupposes that life exists. This is not only a freakin' stupid thing to say, it is also just a strawman to kick around.

So, natural selection could only work on a living organism that could produce offspring. By its very definition natural selection could not work on non-living chemicals.

Ummmm....yeah. ANOTHER absolutely freakin' stupid thing to sauy. D'uh......my bottle of phosphoric acid does not evolve through natural selection. Yes, natural selection does not work on animals that cannot reproduce.

Darwin himself was well aware that he had not produced such an account. It now seems to me that the findings of more than fifty years of DNA research have provided materials for a new and enormously powerful argument to design.

Baseless statement....strike three.

Lemme guess..."it's complicated, thusly...God did it"

You are both a bit math challenged and possibly have done little if any computer code in your lives right?

Slight changes in any [DNA] code will not cause it to morph into a new kind or life-form. Even with trillions of years the math is not there to support the number of changes needed with even just 1% change in the DNA. Not too mention that most code will break when you keep introducing change.
