There is yet another problem with denying abiogenesis and affirming Intelligent Design.
Even if one could prove that life can only come from other life, and even if you could prove that a God exists, what is the proof that God is a living thing that created all other life?
Holy shit! Do you have any idea at all as to how many topics you have included in this short blurb?
- You assert “A problem.” In my book that means ‘one.’ Then we take off flying.
A. Denying abiogenesis. 'Transpermia for example?" First issue is the denial of abiogenisis. Any other possibility can be asserted, factual or not, upon the rejection of abiogenisis. Aboigenisis is not a proven theory, it is one of the best models we currently have. There are competing models. The creationist hypothesis is not among them.
B. Affirming intelligent design. A completely different proposition. Problem number 2 and 3. One can affirm intelligent design in at least two different ways. God ‘done it’ by the Biblical Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve and the whole creation myth story. (OR) God ‘done it’ and 'abiogenisis was simply the method by which he accomplished the task.
C. Life can only come from other life? Here is another idea tossed into the mix, Where did this pop up from? Life can only come from life? Another discussion entirely and requiring its’ own set of proofs and debunking.
D. Now we jump to God exists, (What in the fuck number are we on now??? I have lost count???) And then on to God exists as a living thing? (We will allow the “created life” bit to slide as IMO all gods I know of are asserted to have ‘created life.’ What if there was a god who merely set things in motion and life was an unintended by product of something else he was attempting to do. Do we still say “He created life?” Perhaps he did it and does not even know that he did it or how he did it? Or maybe he was a she, (Sorry for the masculine pronoun. I am aware I am using it,)
E. Living things are comprised of components. Am I sensing a black swan fallacy here? If we begin removing components, let’s say a heart or a brain, is the living thing still living? Can the living thing exist independent of its components? If not. why do we call them “components.” Surely there is an argument for the minimum qualities of a living thing and that thing would have no components at all. It would be a unit. The unit of a living thing. We break things into components so that we can better understand them. This is called “reductionism.” The whole is different than the sum of the parts. The living “thing” may turn out to be an emergent property of the minimum unit of biological mass. Regardless, you have made yet another assertion in a wild string of assertions.
F. I can’t even count all the assertions at this point and I am sure I have missed a few. Someone else can pick up on the one’s I missed. NEXT: “God created living things only for them to atrophy and die.” WHAT? Out of a billion possibilities, how did your mind end up with this one? Just pulled it out of your ass, is my guess. Can you even begin to see the jumble of pure garbage you have postedf?
G. And why must atrophy be painful or horrible, natural or artificial? WTF ---- We are so far out in Fantasy land now that I think returning to reality is not an option.
H. Now we are considering a god Omnibenevolent to his creation? WHY? And what in the hell does that have to do with “Abiogenisis, the achilles heel of Athiests?” We are so far out in left field that we may as well stop and have a picnic. I like bananas. Would you like a shit sandwich?
I. Now we have a Sadistic God which is like some cartoon characters… and I have no idea how 'bread mold, caged mice, leaches???, dogs, dry tinder or a match are relevant to anything concerning abiogenesis.
J. Yes, the god you mentioned is probably not worth worshiping. How do you know that the person making the post is talking about an “Omnibenevolent, sadistic, Beavis and Buthead with a lab full of bread mold…” God?
Are you just a theist, sneaking in here to write a few posts and make atheists look like blathering idiots?
