We simply don’t know how abiogenesis occurred. We do have a good idea of the environment, that it was much different than today, and that it only occurred once....Just because we don’t know how it happened, doesn’t mean it was a miracle.

A rose by any other name. Did you read the article? A miracle - seeing as they do occur - is the most reasonable explanation in the light of the astronomical odds against a naturalistic hypotheses.

A miracle would be if abiogenesis occurred in an environment hostile to organic chemistry. For the early Earth the correct answer is we still don’t know how it happened, although there are more plausible explanations than a miracle.

I didn't read this through, but my intuition tells me that two of the three kinds of life weren't even mentioned.

Three kinds:

o natural/physical life

-------

o Spiritual life

o Eternal (everlasting) life

(each has an opposite in terms of death)
