She's 14 and in advanced and accelerated classes in 8th grade, with one class being Advanced honors algebra One.
And she wanted to clarify that using logic and reason does make sense.
And she's still going on about explosions not creating life. She gave an example of "if this house exploded, would it create life? The answer is no, it wouldn't."
I can't win.
I read this to her. Her question is:
How do we have any proof that this happened?

But - it wasn't an explosion, it was more like akin to a vessel of hot water expanding and cooling, and in the course of that, the water condenses and complexice crystals and snow flakes form. The cooling atoms fused together to form more and more complex matter.
