The problem with the "there can not spontanous life" argument is random thoughts Send a noteboard - 15/06/2015 02:29:06 PM

Spontaneous all powerful beings are even more unlikely. The fact that we can not explain how organic life first began does not mean supernatural forces were at play. There theories for how it could have happed but since it will leave no fossil evidence and it happened several billions years ago and possibly not even on this planet it makes take a little while to nail down the exact mechanism. Just because we don't know why the mountain spews lava does need mean we need to assume it is an angry and toss a virgin down to keep him happy.
