The alternative at this point is very scary.

I've been completely honest so far. And why would you think I wasn't a Christian?

Because science does not ask us to turn off our mind's faculties in order to believe in something that is literally a myth.

Oh, you poor, deluded child. Science does not need faith, because science is based in fact and reality. Only the mythology of religion needs to rely on faith.

Rolleyes

Essentially, what he;s saying is that abiogenesis doesn't meet the requirements to qualify as a science (seeing how it's never been reproduced or even observed for that matter), which makes it a belief; which you seem perfectly capable of accepting without any evidence.

Why the double standard?
