Er, if I may interrupt:

The body of data for 'macroevolution', as you call it, is such that only those blinded by dogma could fail to recognize it.

If that were so, how would you explain Francis Crick and other panspermia supporters?

I also don't see how you could put Marcel-Paul Schützenberger, Hubert P. Yockey or Stephen Wolfram in a bucket of dogma.

Crick's panspermia theory involved the beginning of life, not its subsequent evolution. Here;s the abstract of the original Orgel and Crick paper:

It now seems unlikely that extraterrestrial living organisms could have reached the earth either as spores driven by the radiation pressure from another star or as living organisms imbedded in a meteorite. As an alternative to these nineteenth-century mechanisms, Directed Panspermia, the theory that organisms were deliberately transmitted to the earth by intelligent beings on another planet, is considered. It is concluded that it is possible that life reached the earth in this way, but that the scientific evidence is inadequate at the present time to say anything about the probability. Attention is drawn to the kinds of evidence that might throw additional light on the topic

Not exactly a strong endorsement.

As for the others, Wolfram is a crank egomaniac (a brilliant one, but still a crank), Schuetzenberger appears to be drunk on his own words, a classic French vice, and Yockey is most definitely a religious zealot.
