Game over.

The theory of the puddle and the lightning bolt, has been taugh as just that,a theory. There is some evidence for this but noone has taugh it as fact. Constrast this with your "theory" based on some book that came from where. Was this book found in some swamp or what.

The quotes ......are the reality of the position of false science.

The "quotes" are from a polemicist, working outside his field, who agrees with you, and who mentions the work of scientists from the 1920s and 1930s. Have you got any "quotes" from this century?

FMF this theory of the soup was out there when I was going through
school in the late 1950's and early 1960's at least. It could have been
before this, but that is the time period that I remember hearing about it.

P.S. I found something on it.
The "Primordial soup" theory is described in the Wikipedia article Abiogenesis.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abiogenesis

Try reading the link and you will see that several hypotheses are put forward.

Nobody knows (yet)

Nobody claims to know.

The post is showing that the theory of the puddle and lightning bolt is known by many and taught by many.

If it is taught by many you should find it easy to come up with some names ....?

Perhaps one name then?

If you cannot then YOU ARE BEING DISHONEST

Right, it is the same as the theory of evolution, not fact, just theory.

evolution is an applied theory. as in it's based on factual evidence which is applied in real world practices. most of modern medicine depends on the theory of evolution being mostly correct.

when was the last time magic cured anyone?

Why then do many medical doctors not believe in evolution then?

i don't know that many medical doctors don't believe in evolution theory. perhaps there are a few. their beliefs are irrelevant however, as are all beliefs. beliefs do not change the facts stated above.

So I guess evolutionists are the only ones allowed to have beliefs. Okay.

there is applied theory and there is speculative theory. abiogenesis is a speculative theory. evolution theory on the other hand is applied positively, reliably and consistently in the real world despite your ignorance of the subject.

your beliefs or anyone's beliefs on it are completely irrelevant.

That's right because there is no evolution. So believeing in it is fruitless.

you are a great man knowing there is no evolution. We are finding out new things every day and they mostly point in the direction of evolution. What we know now would certainly not lead one to made the bold statement that there is no evolution.
And when new facts emerge there is no saying that we believed something different last week so this cannot be true. Unlike these holy books that have appeared from who knows where. People who swear by the words of the holy books should learn to question them. The truth can stand up to questions

When I was a young man with little knowledge or wisdom I questioned
the Holy Bible because I thought I was smart. Today, I realize how
stupid I was then. The people who believe in evolution have not come
to the point of realizing how stupid they are yet. They still think they
are smart.

Have you any other reason for dismissing evolution other than your smartness

Well, now you are an OLD man with little knowledge or wisdom...😉

Why make such a broad statemnt? Loads of people who believe in evolution are very smart. Even if they are not right, at least they are trying to figure things out instead of blindly following a magical book full of floods, destruction, self-multiplying bread and fish, people who get weaker when their hair gets cut, people walikng on water, and the origin of the black man being due to an ancient murder... I could go on, but you probably stopped reading since I didn't include any pictures.
