You're arguing that abiogenesis is impossible (where have I read that phrase before....), and I don't accept your argument for it. A self replicating molecule does not need to be conscious and goal oriented.
As far as your premises are concerned, I don't consider 1 to be so evident, and 2 sounds nonsensical, strangely worded at least.
Your line of argument in the beginning, which you later duscard: "A has not been proven scientifically, therefore A cannot be true" is not valid. But were you really going to deny speciation?
I'm sorry if I made it seem like I was arguing that a self-replicationg molecule needs to be conscious and goal oriented. That's not what I meant. I was simply referring to the origin of that single molecule and how the molecule came into existence in the first place.
I truly don't know, but chance sounds plausible, considering how big the universe is.We already observe that chemistry has the habit of organizing itself in simple self replicating patterns.
