I do not understand what relevance your question has to the theory of evolution.

Oh I realize that most evolutionists dodge the initial origins of life question. However; without knowing HOW or WHY life begins and ends then the concept of ID is every bit as valid as ToE. The ToE is just the process of life between it's creation and its demise. Where is the "God" gene that provides the spark to animate an organism. Once evolutionists find that the debate is over.

How, exactly, is this question "dodged"?

However; without knowing HOW or WHY life begins and ends then the concept of ID is every bit as valid as ToE.

This is not a logical conclusion. Knowing the means by which life ultimately originated does not alter the scientific validity -- or lack thereof -- of proposed events that occur within populations of extant life.

The ToE is just the process of life between it's creation and its demise.

This is a vague statement. Evolution is a process that affects populations of imperfectly replicating organisms.

Where is the "God" gene that provides the spark to animate an organism.

What do you mean by "spark"?

I regret that I will be unable to address any response that you make until tomorrow morning, as I must retire for the night at this time.

What do you mean, dodge?

Evolution says nothing about the origin of life, because without life, there can be no evolution, so evolution states nothing, as far as how life came to be.

If a theory cannot exist before an event, that event will not be explained by the theory.

I hope that explanation was basic enough for you to understand.

The beginning of life could have been aliens from outer space, it could have been a cometary collision whcih had the proper amino acids on it, it could have been God reaching down with his glass chemical rod and swishing it into existence. It really does not matter to the theory of evolution, because without life, evolution could not exist, therefore the origin of life is of no consequence to the theory.
