Scientific Debate: Why I assert that Darwin's theory of evolution is false

[Heywood]

Pasteur disproved spontaneous generation, the idea that life spontaneously appears, but that's not what abiogenesis hypothesizes will happen. In abiogenesis, a series of chemical reactions, over time and in an environment very different to modern day earth, can give rise to simple life. We even have experimental results confirming this as possible; the Miller-Yurey experiments and John Oro's work demonstrates that in certain conditions the building blocks of life form naturally. It's not spontaneous or magic, it's simple chemical reactions in accordance with the laws of physics. Unfortunately for your argument, Pasteur has long been left behind.

Pasteur did not disprove spontaneous generation. Someone could always claim that spontaneous generation occurs/had occurred....we just haven't observed it yet......kinda like abiogenesis.

What Pasteur did was show that observations which were once thought to be spontaneous generation were actually observations of some other process.

Oh...and Miller-Yurey's demonstration of a way amino acids could form doesn't suggest abiogenesis actually happens any more than Hoyle's Triple alpha process for carbon formation.
