Testable? Okay, then please explain to me how life just springs from nothing. Why has man not been able to duplicate this random process? Do you realize how complex DNA is? Apparently not. I find it amusing that SETI looks for patterns and in so doing assumes that ordered patterns are indication of life, yet with DNA, a pattern much more complex than any radio signal, they assume it just sprang up on its own! How ironic!

In science, one neve knows the destination, but you can observe trends. The trend, for several hundred years now, is that naturalistic explanatations continue to grow in power. Every time someone declares something to be irreducibly complex, it gets reduced.

As for whether you can "explain" the origin of life through laboratory experiments -- show me the difference between water freezing in your home freezer and water freezing in a northern lake.

You're making way too much sense for the SETI crowd.

They have feelings on their side.

And lots and lots of money.
