Can you provide a citation for it being a claim of atheists?
Now you are playing games....Everytime you talk about a theistic claim do you provide such a citation?
Do you not agree that many atheists believe or claim that life originated via a natural process?
How about you tell me were the flaw is in my thinking. Quote it and explain why it is a flaw.

"lineage of life"?
Is that a fancy expression for "kind", now?
Lineage is a term used in evolutionary science. Lineage of life isn't something I made up.

IOW..one of us is very confused..yes.
Mycoplasma Labratorium is different. It was claimed to be the first instance of synthetic life. I don't agree with that claim, but the achievement and others has convinced me that intellects are capable of creating independent lineages of life. Its just a matter of time before more than one lineage of life exists on this planet. Most if not all those lineages will be the product of intelligent design.
