The video seems to imply that there are no answers and that scientists are absolutely baffled and stumped by it. There are many areas of science where there is still debate about exactly how something happened, but where viable theories do exist for how it may have taken place. So, if you're asking whether there are any hard and certain explanations for how abiogenesis took place, then the answer is obviously no. However, if you're trying to say that it's a question that "evolutionists can't answer without looking stupid", then you have to deal with the fact that there are legitimate answers to the question. We just don't know which of them are correct, or if a future theory might be able to bring together their best aspects or answer the question in a more satisfying way.

Didn't it ask how abiogenesis works (or came from)?

Science doesn't know how life originated. There are many things science is still ignorant of which is why scientists do research.

Do you really think that the best place to find God is in our ignorance?

Do you really think that the mysteries of faith can be answered via the physical nature of science? True ignorance is the rejection of the supernatural because it doesn't conform to natural laws; because that implies an understanding of the properties of neither.

There is no mystery to faith, it's simply reasons people give when they don't have good reasons to believe. Faith is an assertion of unreasonable convictions and defended against all reason.

Where is the mystery? Is it a mystery why people fall for snake oil salesmen?

I don't reject the supernatural. I just see no reason to believe in it, and you have yet to supply any evidence that the supernatural actually exists.

You claimed it was impossible for energy to be created from nothing, and yet that is exactly what creationists are proposing.
Not in the least. God is eternal. He has always existed. He spoke the universe into existence not from nothingness, but from the will of God.

It IS impossible to form the entire universe and all living things in six days, which is why God did it. Doing things that are readily explainable doesn't prove yourself to be omnipotent.

God created, yes, but we all can clearly see that he didnt do it in six literal days.

Faith is the belief in that which is not proven. You have faith in evolution, we have faith in God. God reveals Himself to those who come to Him in faith and remains hidden to those who do not. To the former, no further prrof is needed. To the latter, no proof is sufficient.

For science to disprove faith, one would have to take the position that the creation is greater than the Creator; which is illogical to the point of stupidity. A clay jar is not greeater than the potter, nor is a painting greater than the artist. The physical laws of the world have no claim over the Creator of the world. Amazingly, God can be found by anyone who truly seeks Him, yet so many who refuse to see the evidence of His presence contend that he does not exist. Psalms 14:1 is dedicated to such people. The truly wise man is the one who understands that the answers of the universe lie not with the jar, but with the potter; not with the painting, but with the painter.

So, what is wrong with the bible? To you it's a theory. To me it's the truth.

If God came to the earth, would you believe?

Faith is the belief in that which is not proven. You have faith in evolution,. . .

Leading off with a false equivalence isn't helping you. Faith is a belief held in the absence of evidence. Evolution is supported by mountains of evidence, therefore acceptance of the theory is not based on faith.

God reveals Himself to those who come to Him in faith and remains hidden to those who do not.

How do you know tha it is God that is being revealed? Others claim the same for other gods and you reject their claims.

For science to disprove faith,

Science is not in the business of refuting unevidenced claims. When you have evidence then we will consider it.

"Assertions made without evidence can be rejected with out evidence."--Christopher Hitchens.

A clay jar is not greeater than the potter, nor is a painting greater than the artist.

Clay jars do not participate in biological reproduction.

The physical laws of the world have no claim over the Creator of the world.

Just like they have no claim over unicorns, leprechauns, and Zeus.

"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." --Sir Stephen Henry Roberts
