Welcome back. I was hoping you'd have new material.
Thank you, Davian! I appreciate it!
I'll see what I can come up with in the area of something new!

They deny abiogenesis happened. And yet the Bible describes it in Genesis 2:7.
So that tells you that they REEEEEALLY hate abiogenesis if they are even willing to deny the Bible on that topic.

Creationists not only insist that evolution includes abiogenesis, they insist that it should include the big bang theory, the origin of the earth, radiometric dating and just about everything else in science that they don't like.

fallible
I am not one to argue the bible, but the abiogenesis issue comes across to me as a god-of-the-gaps argument. As we don't know the precise conditions under which the process of life began, it is something they can cling to desperately. That they cannot reconcile their arguments with the the bible does not surprise me.

Looks like your not going to find anyone to do your research for you.

That must be why there are many theistic evolutionists who believe that the first living cell was placed on earth by God right?

Can you please show me where in evolutionary theory does it say that "nonliving things evolved over time into living things.?" Or was that your personal strawman?
I'd much rather have come from bacteria than "dust."
And science trumps the bible any day of the week.

Like how much you can beat your slave. Exodous 21Apples and oranges. The bible deals with important issues.
How to properly rape and pillage. Judges 21
Killing witches. Exodous 22
What kind of clothes to wear. Deuteronomy 22
Important for who, exactly?

Why not? I'll tell you. Even if we all pitched in, trying to correct him of all the things he's wrong about would require many, many years.
(Indeed, in that same paragraph he was wrong about confusing abiogenesis with the theory of evolution. And it is Genesis 2:7 which describes atoms-to-Adam abiogenesis. So he is complaining about something which his own Bible describes. But I suppose if you called it dust-to-Adam abiogenesis ---and didn't mention to him that DUST consists of ATOMS, he might just accept it. But no. That would be far too logical.)
