Caution: There is NO smoking on Saturn. Or use of tobacco products of any kind. And NO vaping. Thank you for your cooperation.

Well. I am very certain the numbers are not in favor of random chance creating uniqque DNA sequences, not just for every kind of animal, but for every living being.
So whats easier to believe.. an intelligent designer or the absolute impossibilty of random processes.
It’s not 1840 and we need to stop letting others think for us. The evidence is as plain as the nose on your face.
But if Intelligent Design is real, then.. well I can see why it’s easier to accept baby food science than the evidence all around from the telescope to the microscope.

Earth has been here for billions of years. That is an inconceivable amount of time which is sufficient for any random event to occur. The origin of life is IMO intelligent design however earth and humanity are likely not even remotely close to the genesis. We are likely just one example of evolution amoung billions of others scattered across an inconceivably large universe.

Lol.. who was the man in history alive billions of years ago to observe the beginning of the earth? Science is repeatable and observable. Who observed that? Name him or her.

How come the methane doesn’t go boom?

Lack of oxygen to react with.

CH4 + 2O2 ==> CO2 + 2H2O

Or, as you say, "boom".

Again we don’t know how life begins but we KNOW ASSUME it evolves over time.

Really? Do you think bees and flowers just magically were made dependent on each other? Do you think the venus fly trap came out of the ground for the first time in search of insects to feed on? There are thosands of living things that depend on other living things to survive. That is the result of millions of years of adaptive evolution. The fossil record also demonstrates extensive prove of the evolution of species.

Is that your scientific answer? How boring. I was really enjoying the discussion.

Sorry you lost me with this one. No point in continuing really.

Plant or animal?

Or do you want to know how many times ‘life’ emerged from NON-life before it figgered out it had better emerge NEXT time knowing how to REPRODUCE?

It DOES?

What it SHOWS is many differing things; but NEVER has it 'shown' any gradual change like...

That is the result of millions of years of adaptive evolution.
