However, the replication of genetic material, which is a purely chemical process no more out of the ordinary than any other, is a very well understood field of study: here's a reference source so you can learn all about it, if you want. No design, no plan, just chemicals doing what they do in accordance with the predictable and replicable behaviors of chemistry. No magic required, and that is the entirety of genetic replication and reproduction.
Then I've got a way for you to become a billionaire! Well, maybe not you, but one of your great, great, grand kids. Here is what you do: You just buy a few million silicon wafers that haven't been processed (etched) and you plant them in the ground, making your very own "silicon chip farm." As soon as the undirected forces of nature start acting on the silicon chips, it's only a matter of time until at least some of them begin to learn how to reproduce themselves. From that point, the ones that have spontaneously developed the ability to reproduce themselves, you can just let evolution work its magic on these reproducing chips, and eventually you're certain to get some of the most valuable computer chips in the world! It's worth a try, isn't it?
Look, if you're not going to seriously engage with what I'm showing you, and if you're just going to leap to another topic the moment you're provided with evidence against the first one- because you've gone from a discussion of how reproduction works back to the same strawman of abiogenesis you used before- then we're done here. I'm not going to try to educate someone unless they're willing to come to that discussion honestly, and what you're doing here is not honest.
