If we create silk in the laboratory, does that mean it isn't made by spiders? If we model the workings of a volcano in supercomputers, does that mean volcanos are designed?
OK, to spell it out a bit more clearly. It would seem to me that if scientists create life where none was before and where none exists without intervention, then that is a demonstration that intelligence creates life. Your rebut is not on point.
