As I've been pointing out a belief in abiogenesis is an act of faith and irrartionality.

Believing in anything is an act of faith. Irrationality is yet to be demonstrated by the submission of your proof that abiogensis had to happen by the spontaneous formation of a prokariote. A submission that is still, I believe, on your to-do list.

Then I'll be more specific. Believing in abiogeneis is an act of faith not an act of material rationality, and material rationality is the the arena science restricts itself to. I have no quarrel with you about this, until you transmute this personal opinion of yours into a statement about what science believes. :-)

Materialism is a faith. It is a very irrational faith. In no way should it be axiomatic. If you agree that God's existance should be an axiom, I'll stop arguing with you.
