Who says creating life frmom scratch would require tools and equipment on a human being's part? Why do we require such things to create life from non-living material? If a man created life with simply his hands and mind, would not those things be his 'tools'? Were there a scientific explanation behind his creation of life with nothing but hands and mind, would it still be magic? Is it any less magic because there is an explanation behind it? Not the way I see it. No more than the color blue stops being blue once you explain how it got to be that way.
Still blue, still magic.
And if we couldn't create life from literal scratch, with neither tools nor equipment, how would it go a long way in supporting the idea that God is not necessary in the first place? If anything, I would think it shows the opposite! It shows that without tools or without equipment, life cannot be created by any one or any thing but God.
