The lack of presents could easily be explained away.



I didn't know that and would be interested to see where it says that.

Adopted fathers are generally expected to be human.



It is a typical theist trick to try and limit how the other person can reply. In this case by assuming that life has to spontaneously arise and only from inanimate matter.

Alpha doesn't seem to understand, atoms as single atoms are not alive, but in certain arrangements those atoms can form amino acids which make up DNA, WHICH DO make up living things. His problem is that he cant wrap his head around the concept that going from a single atom to many atoms to a molecule then to an acid does not require a cosmic factory boss.

Much like an individual snowflake does not need Frosty The Snowman to take non snowflake single molecules of H20 to build up to a complex snowflake. 

Otherwise Pele exists because volcanos exist.

Yep, indeed. I think that's (possibly) a fundamental difference in how I (or we) view life compared to some theists; as an evolved system comprised of many small and (relatively) simple units, each performing a very small and specific 'task' locally based on physics and chemistry, but which when taken as a whole, can be considered the whole organism.
