Is it your position that the God of the Bible is the cause of why non life went to life?

Yes.

Do you think that god might have done so in precisely the same way as any run f the mill abiogenesis proponent suggests?  By, essentially, engaging in organic chemistry.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm not asking for certainty, just wondering..for example...between

"played in dirt, uttered cantrip"
and
"organic chemistry"

-which would you lean towards?

Now it's oppression?  I do thank you that gave me a long hearty chuckle.

Have a blessed day lost one. RAmen
:Fsm-grin:

 You really struggle with conversation that would be considered contributory and educated in this thread.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

The latter.

Doesn't organic chemistry qualify as a "natural" means? A natural mechanism?

Carbon atoms are magical. You didn't know that?

Yes. And you have clearly made your point.

Wonderful, so from that point of understanding and agreement, I have a question that you might be qualified to opine upon.

If there were a god that were capable of baking a cake called life out of organic chemistry, what is the basis of the religious objection to that same cake being baked by any other possible means?
