Unless there's some conjecture that god is a living thing then neither of us sees any requirement for a living thing to be involved in a chemical reaction.
The fact is, I was clearly not as precise as I should have been in formulating my position as frankly I never thought about life from non-life in the way you presented it. I worded by objection broadly enough such that it covers things we observe and you pointed that out.
However, there still seems to be a big difference between the life from non-life that we observe and what would have had to happen when no life existed. The kind we observe requires life to get more life. It is the living cells that take non-living matter and produce more life.
So I still think there are issues with the idea of life coming from non-life via a series of chemical reaction without some other life participating in the process.
Frankly, there -is- no such requirement, the proposition is demonstrably unsound.
