Living things cannot eat minerals.

Plants "eat" minerals all the time, as do certain microscopic critters. Hell, there are whole ecosystems based upon the hot chemical effluvium spewing from deep-ocean vents -- hot effluvium that is completely inorganic in origin. Methinks you are completely out of your depth here.

"Plants "eat" minerals all the time,

And that's what I said a sentence after the one which you willfully took out of context. I said (in#635):

The only exception to this is plants which either through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis can create their own nourishment from sunlight and chemicals. .

You should be ashamed of yourself.

And the above is the reason why abiogenesis is impossible and none of you evolutionists can show any alternative to it.

Pun intended, no doubt. (Think black smokers.)
