Object: Creation and Biogenesis
The *Law of Biogenesis* basically says two things:
1. living things always come from living things;
2. living things produce only more living things
like themselves.
There has never been an exception. But because
the implications of this law disproves the popular
"mud to man theory" which denies God, they say
that there just ~must~ have been an exception.
"The Law of Biogenesis says that living things
cannot be formed from non-living things. .but
there must have been at least exception in the
distant past -an abiogenesis event."
http://wiki.cotch.net/index.php/Law_of_biogenesis
It is true there was an 'event' in the past. But this
event was an intelligently planned, and purposed
event by an all powerful Creator. To say other-
wise is against the law..the law of biogenesis.

Why do you keep referring to the exact same apologetics website? You

Please cite some items of substance from the site which are defectively

Please cite ANYTHING from that site which is actually true.


"Historically the point of view that life comes only from life has been so
well established through the facts revealed by experiment that it is
called the Law of Biogenesis." In a footnote, the authors stated further:
"Some philosophers
call this a principle instead of a law, but this is a matter of
definition, and def-
initions are arbitrary. Some scientists call this a superlaw, or a law
about laws.
Regardless of terminology, biogenesis has the highest rank in these levels
of generalization" -- Biology: A Search for Order in
Complexity, p.74

Andrew, we are all too familiar with the habit of creationists of twisting
quotes to suit creationists needs. As a result of this no creationist quote
can be taken at face value. In this case we both know that you haven't read
the reference you have used so I need to know which crap site you used to
get this reference. IN other words Andrew, we need a reliable source to
verify this garbage. To see the lies of creationist go here:

I've already pointed to an error in the Doctor's table which claims that
a confirmed theory becomes a law. I'd tell you more, but you have
already made up your mind to ignore science and accept religiously
motivated lies in their place.

The fact remains, there has never been an exception
to the law of biogenesis.

Yes there has. Every time life arises on a planet, that fake law is
violated.

You know this how?


If you know of an exception to the above, please let me know so that I may
recant.

I'm not claiming to have perfect knowledge of all things that have ever
happened, as you are doing.

But because the implications of this
law disproves the popular "mud to man theory" which denies God, they
say that there just ~must~ have been an exception.


Theories are never 'proved' or 'disproved'. We DO know, with a high
degree of certainty, that there is no 'magic ingredient' that separates
living from non-living.

Given the existence of living things, it is far more likely that new
living things will come from the reproduction of already living things,
than from abiogenesis. A few billion years ago, when there were no
living things, that may not have been the case. Our ability to collect
useful data from that event is limited, making it hard to study.


Yes it is hard to study it, isn't it Mark.

Mark, can you please explain your
origins model? Thank you.

In a nutshell: non-living, self-organizing molecules acquired the ability
to replicate. The exact details are being worked out.


"The Law of Biogenesis says that living things cannot be formed from
non-living things. .but there must have been at least exception in the
distant past -an abiogenesis event."
http://wiki.cotch.net/index.php/Law_of_biogenesis

It is true there was an 'event' in the past. But this event was an
intelligently planned, and purposed event by an all powerful Creator.
To say other- wise is against the law..the law of biogenesis.

That leaves the question of where the Creator came from. Perhaps He
came from a pre-existing Creator?


Well, the first step for anyone to understand some of these deeper
questions would be to acknowledge His existence, as you have now just
done.

No, I'm speaking hypothetically, as in, "What would it be like to live in
a world without hypothetical questions?" You are positing the existence
of a 'Creator' to explain biogenesis. I am merely pointing out that
doesn't really explain anything, it just changes the object that needs
explaining.
Surely, you already know all of this, and are just a troll. Go back under
your bridge.

Actually, the results may be better with the auto mechanic, even if the
recommendation was "Shut up, have a shot of brandy and get back to work.".
Doctors are taught what to do and are taught VERY little about why or the
wherefores of health. Their PRIMARY (most of them) education is from the
leggy drug sales persons visiting them once a month.
Oh, yes the average IQ of the average mechanic is higher that the average
medical Doctor.
The biggest variance between science knowledge and pseudo-science
discussions exists in the Atheist religion.
Science fiction is my very very favorite form of entertainment. Science is
my form of great income. I meet atheists in the former genre and none in
the second. It is absolutely amazing how limited most of both genre are in
the appreciation of the possible and actual facts that exist in science
fiction.

Sounds like just a bunch of empty talk to me. I'm willing to bet that
if you should ever get seriously ill, that your first stop won't be a
mechanic.

leggy drug sales persons visiting them once a month.
Oh, yes the average IQ of the average mechanic is higher that the average
medical Doctor.

The biggest variance between science knowledge and pseudo-science
discussions exists in the Atheist religion.

Golly, what an *****. How is "lack of theism" a religion, when all
it is, is a lack of something?

Science fiction is my very very favorite form of entertainment. Science is
my form of great income. I meet atheists in the former genre and none in
the second.

You're lying.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_atheism
Some studies have suggested that atheism is particularly prevalent
among scientists, a tendency already quite marked at the beginning of
the 20th century, developing into a dominant one during the course of
the century. In 1914, James H. Leuba found that 58% of 1,000 randomly
selected U.S. natural scientists expressed "disbelief or doubt in the
existence of God". The same study, repeated in 1996, gave a similar
percentage of 60.7%; this number is 93% among the members of the
National Academy of Sciences.
http://sciencevsreligion.net/introduction.from%20pdf.htm
The public, in general, has not accepted the assertion by science that
God is not needed. Over 90 percent of us believe, while only 40 percent
of all scientists express faith in God, falling to about 10 percent
among leading scientists.
http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/angier06/angier06_index.html
According to a 1998 survey published in Nature, only 7 percent of
members of the prestigious National Academy of Sciences professed a
belief in a "personal God."
http://www.lhup.edu/~DSIMANEK/sci_relig.htm
Disbelief in God and immortality among NAS biological scientists was
65.2% and 69.0%, respectively, and among NAS physical scientists it was
79.0% and 76.3%. Most of the rest were agnostics on both issues, with
few believers. We found the highest percentage of belief among NAS
mathematicians (14.3% in God, 15.0% in immortality). Biological
scientists had the lowest rate of belief (5.5% in God, 7.1% in
immortality), with physicists and astronomers slightly higher (7.5% in
God, 7.5% in immortality).
http://kspark.kaist.ac.kr/Jesus/Intelligence%20&%20religion.htm
"Whereas 90% of the general population has a distinct belief in a
personal god and a life after death, only 40% of scientists on the B.S.
level favor this belief in religion and merely 10 % of those who are
considered 'eminent' scientists believe in a personal god or in an
afterlife."

It is absolutely amazing how limited most of both genre are in
the appreciation of the possible and actual facts that exist in science
fiction.

Creationists seem to assume that anything not of the earth is heretical and
Atheists assume knowledge of extra terrestrial (or home galaxy) is proof
that there is no God.

You have objective, verifiable evidence of "God"? Present it. Until
then, I'll continue to lack belief in it.

Do you have a citation from a peer-reviewed journal, or Biology
textbook to that effect? Your cited source is hardly credible.

Why don't you post the direct address instead of playing games with
<http://www.apologeticspress.org/articles/2004> and giving us a bunch of
short-link links? I guess you know that religious apologetics, even from
someone who used to be a scientist but has proven that he has abandoned
science, is not a useful argument for you.

He plagiarises it blindly and unthinkingly from creationist web sites,
as indeed he does his entire armamentarium. That's why he cannot
discuss it, why he cannot answer questions or respond to challenges,
and why he most certainly could not even begin to hold up his end in a
formal debate on the material.
