If you can understand it so well, then perhaps you can tell us how angels came about sans abiogenesis or evolution?But we can understand it.

You can't -- that's my point.-_- I don't think angels actually exist, so why would I have to explain how they came about?

How can you, if you don't believe they exist?
Yet he said he understands life so well.
How can a person "understand life so well," and not believe angels exist?
Simple -- they don't believe angels exist.
Goodbye.Would angels even qualify as alive to begin with?
Goodbye.
Life is not the chemicals. Life is the reactions those chemicals undergo. And those reactions depend on the chemical environment, temperature, concentrations, pressure, reactants and catalysts.I read the article, and if I understand it correctly, it's saying that there are some organic chemicals that can be manufactured from inorganic chemicals. Assuming I'm right about that, I have another question. Are organic chemicals *sufficient* for life?
Angels arose in the human imagination.If you can understand it so well, then perhaps you can tell us how angels came about sans abiogenesis or evolution?
What keeps them there?Angels arose in the human imagination.
I see.Psychological need.
I see.
So by extension, those who believe that life existed before abiogenesis, do so because they have a psychological need?
Let's forget angels then.
God is life.
Explain that sans abiogenesis & evolution.
Same thing, I take it? psychological need?
What is the hang up with abiogenesis? Science doesn't claim there is ample evidence to show this is how life began, although many may take available information and think it is reasonable speculation.
It's a lie of the Devil.What is the hang up with abiogenesis?
I know how life began:Science doesn't claim there is ample evidence to show this is how life began,
It's a lie of the Devil.
I know how life began:
No evidence needed, no evidence generated, no evidence period.
- Concerning God: self-existent
- Concerning angels: creatio ex nihilo
- Concern plants, animals, man: creatio ex materia
When I'm told it is because of a "psychological need"?Are you bothered, that some disagree with you?
At 1.3 posts per day, I don't think you have to worry about me derailing a thread of yours, Nithavela.Weren't you specifically asked not to derail this thread, AV?
If one believes in something without objective evidence to confirm it, psychological need is in play. If one believes in something without objective evidence to confirm it and in fact plenty of objective evidence to show the believe is false, an even greater and more powerful psychological need is in play. IMO, a psychological need to believe in a God can be very healthy, as long as it doesn't force the person to put them above others and force them to deny well evidenced reality.
Those who choose to reserve judgment on conclusions until evidence can determine if it is likely true, are also following a psychological need - the need to believe things that are most likely correct.
