No one ever saw it happen, it can't be reproduced naturally and it cannot be said to be a scientific fact because it fails to meet the necessary criteria. On the other hand, we have independent eyewitnesses to the life of Jesus and his miracles who wrote down their observations and were prepared to die for the truth of what they wrote. Therefore, I would contend that there is more factual evidence for Christ than there is for abiogenesis. As such, I would consider atheists who believe in abiogenesis to be a people of faith.
Sorry; no. You claimed it was an inherent bias in the "atheist worldview". The only thing involved in the "atheist worldview" is a lack of or disbelief in deities. What does abiogenesis have to do with it?
You said it; I'm interested in clearing up your assertion.
