That sounds like a creationist argument. The above article Chuck quoted, was rather deceptive. They created DNA but RNA? No way near. There are a lot more complications for a cell than just creating the DNA. The more we learn about the cell the more complicated it is.
Just because you completely missed the fucking point, i'll sum it up nice and easy for you.
We have evidence of many of the processes required in Abiogenesis happening, this evidence lends empirical support to Abiogenesis and thus improves it's status as the tentatively preferred explanation.
There is no evidence for intelligent design, thus it is not a hypothesis that has any empirical support and cannot be tentatively preferred.
Also, you seem to be backwards (or it was grammar) - RNA is a prerequisite for DNA, not the other way around.
Yes, that's a creationist argument, but I am looking to refute creationist arguments, so there's no reason to cuss at me, and I never mentioned RNA in any of my posts! What's up with that?! I didn't miss Chuck's points, any of them-so chill. I agree with you on Abiogenesis. And I appreciate all the info in this thread on the subject, as it is fascinating.
