Note to the dumb-as-a-stump crowd:

THIS IS RESEARCH INTO "ABIOGENESIS." YES, IT IS SPECULATIVE. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT DIRECTLY RELATED TO WHETHER THE CURRENT LIFE FORMS OF EARTH ARE RELATED BY COMMON DESCENT. THE MECHANISMS INVESTIGATED HERE ARE NOT "HERITABLE RANDOM VARIATION AND NATURAL SELECTION," THE CLASSICAL ENGINE OF DARWINIAN EVOLUTION.

Thanks for the banner.

This disclaimer should be presented every time an abiogensis thread gets posted.

But...but if evolution says that God does not exist, it has to explain where life came from!

YES, IT IS SPECULATIVE.

DUH!
