Not to dismiss who? You don't know anything about the guy you told us about, remember? Who is that?
Lemme guess, that entire post was pretty much a copy paste - you didn't even consider the contents of the statements you attributed to yourself, and how they ruled out your creator god on account of giving the comments no thought whatsoever, and that's also why you had no idea who anyone was talking about...when they responded to you, by quoting you.
I suppose we could keep this tedium going and going, but you're hundreds of pages shy of reaching the mark of the last creationist - and ultimately, there will be nothing you have to say or offer about genetics that is even remotely close to accurate. You disagree with things you don't understand, and don't understand when things agree with you. This is a problem that no one can fix for you.

If you would listen to Tour, in about 23 minutes he dispells the notion that time can create life and runs ramshod over Jack Szostaks abiogenesis theory. This has ZERO to do w his religious beliefs as he takes care not to even mention his faith but let’s his amazing intellect & chemical bank of knowledge promulgate the facts before your very ears.

Listen to who?
Anyway, whomever this noperson is, it sounds like a waste of time. No one thinks that time created life, so a nutball could argue that until they're blue in the face and they'll only be arguing with themselves.
For the third time (I think), either life on this planet came from life - just pushing the question back to whatever other rock life came from to here, or it came from something other than life. If it's the second one, that's abiogenesis. Tell me again, is your god a meatsack with a genetic relationship to ourselves......?
No, it's not. It's a fairy. Non life. The rational theory of abiogenesis is that organic chemistry did it. The supernatural theory of abiogenesis is that a fairy spoke a magic word. You seem to be stuck, is the sole piece of data you want us to consider in favor of creationism the fact that you find unlikely events just super duper amazing? Is that the bit that's important to you, that convinces you?

"dispells the notion that time can create life"? I wonder why can't anyone prove God directly instead of "disproving" something and "therefore God"?
The thing with abiogenesis is that it is not a fully observed process, not everything is known about it, but to stop and settle into what some ancient sheep herders said in the Bible would be ridiculous. Science will go on, and if you put God at the gaps of knowledge we have now will just make it harder for future people who will then have radical religious people blowing themselves up and killing scientists for "debunking" their God.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Actually all he does is creates a straw man and attacks that he never actually touches jacks central idea's .Because Tour is a sell out and has thrown his credibly away .He's become a modern Sir Richard Owen.

Is it just me, or do all of Mr. Potato Head's assertions seem to get mashed?

It does not matter. It is plain old comfirmation bias. No matter what we say, how much we offer in knowledge, it will never be enough.
He will strut around claiming victory, feeling good about himself, telling "gotcha atheists, you don't have absolute knowledge, therefore my god"
The upside is that if there are others interested in learning, open to consider, it may be useful. Otherwise the discussion would be an exercise in futility.
