Ok, there are a ot of fallacies here.
When you mention entropy precluding life starting without God, I assume you mean that order cannot come from disorder.
Instead of life, let’s considser a stove, with saucepan of boiling water that has a lot of dissolved sugar in it.
If I turn off the heat and I put a wooden popsicle stick in this solution, the sugar will crystalize on the stick, and we now have rock candy.
These sugar crystals are very orderly, as the molecules are arranged in very nice, neat, repeating rows.
This means that there are times when order can come from disorder. Rock candy does not violate entropy, because entropy applies to a closed system.
In the formation of life, the organization represented by life is at the expense of even more disorganization elsewhere. The Sun (for example), has become more disorderly in provding light to Earth, and this energy from the Sun has played a crucial role in creating life.
In other words, the order represented by life is at the expense of an even greater disorder that exists in the Sun.
Chemicals crucial to life that have been created in the lab are no different than chemicals created in living organisms. Epinephrine (adrenalin) that is created in the lab is no different that the adrenalin that is created in the human body. When it’s injected, the human body doesn’t know the difference, so I’m not sure what you mean by “lifeless DNA.” If DNA is created in the lab (Which I haven’t heard of, although the components of DNA, such as nucleotides have been brewed up in the lab. I assume that this is what you mean.), it would act the same as DNA in living tissue.
Another fallacy is that God must be required for things that we can’t do in a lab.
In my mind, we shouldn’t automatically invoke God just because we’re unhappy that we don’t know everything. We haven’t made life in the lab yet, but we probably will later if we give this goal enough time, patience, and hard work. As a rough guess, if we assume that there are maybe 8 steps between lifeless chemicals and a living microbe, we have made perhaps 3 of these steps in the lab already.
I predict that religious people will protest on the day that a scientst starts with inert chemicals and ends up having something crawl out of a jar, but ceating life in a lab will have tremendous value in understanding things like cancer and ageing.
The idea that God is required for life seems like common sense, and here is where I believe a major disconnect occurs between theist and atheist.
Common sense is important, but it isn’t a fundamental form of absolute wisdom.
As an example, it seems like common sense that the Earth is at the center of the Universe. All we have to do is go outside at night and watch the sky turn around us . . . yet the Earth is not the center of the Universe even though it seems like it.
Abiogenesis is like this.
As for life not forming because “everything will be toxic”, toxicity (or poison) is a matter of context.
There are microbes (called extremophiles) that thrive in toxic environments like hot springs with concentrated sulfur compounds, or other environments that are much saltier than the ocean.
Salt water is toxic to people if we drink enough of it, yet dolphins and whales live in it just fine.
As for The Bible being a source of absolute truth, in 2 Chronicles we see that The Bible considers pi (the ratio of a circle’s circumference to it’s diameter) to be exactly 3, which is quite wrong.
We might dismiss this by saying that The Bible isn’t a mathematics textbook, and I agree.
However, this also means that The Bible isn’t a biology textbook, or a textbook on physics, chemstry, or astronomy either.
