2. Abiogenesis and Evolution are two separate theories so evolution doesn't have to explain how life got here only what happens after it starts
3. WTF does it mean to say evolution has power? what kind of nonsense is that?
If you do not get morality from evolution then how does it arise? Is it just a consequence of intelligence? Or are you saying that morality is not real? Also, is intelligence not a consequence of evolution?
So I'm pretty sure that it does not make sense that life evolves only after it starts. Wouldn't it make more sense that it evolved from non-life?
The "power" comes from the statement regarding instincts that you did not respond to. But it's far more than just instincts, but we can at least start with that. Evolution appears to have tremendous power, otherwise how is it possible that life is preprogrammed with instincts? Even the most simple organism such as single-celled, still has a ton of instructions to follow and is more complicated than any computer. Also, if life exists on earth then it exists in the universe and it must have been a possibility before the universe even began and whether or not a universe even exists. This means that life must also be possible when there is only inanimate matter, and therefore life must have some sort of power, at the very least, the power of possibility. Quantum mechanics also believes in the power of possibility.
