I can conceive of an exstence beyond time and space. I wouldn't be playing SL if I didn't think there could be a world where I could line-dance with a talking squirrel, a water nymph, and a Jawa with a lightsaber. There are more things in *my* heaven and earth than are drempt of in your philosophy.

No, I was pointing out he confused the two theories.



No, I knew the difference, but I did a rather good job of getting you to point out a fallacy in your own argument.

You linked the two theories where they have nothing to do with one another, beyond UCD requiring evolution to be true.

I can see them all, that just happens to be the most compelling to me.


Except it's clear from your discourse that you don't "see them all" because you can't even recapitulate them accurately.

Please, the unmitigated gall is tacky. Stop pretending to be qualified to discourse about evolution.

It's a pity you are so good at true science, because your sense of humor is such that i bet you'd play great in the catskills.

No, because Kevn will demand the Red Herring turn into a Red Finch as proof of evolution's accuracy.

Of course they have to do with each other, one states life came from non-life, the other states there was a single life that is our ancestor.

The connection is the theory of universal common descent states we are connected by ancestry, and Abiogenesis states life arose from non-living matter. They both speak to the origin of life. That's their connection.

From: Kevn Klein
The only life form to ever come into existence by way of abiogenesis would be the one we all are related to, according to current theory. It was a single life, from a single location.

From: Kevn Klein
Abiogenesis (Greek a-bio-genesis, "non biological origins";) is, in its most general sense, the generation of life from non-living matter. Today the term is primarily used to refer to theories about the chemical origin of life, such as from a primordial sea, and most probably through a number of intermediate steps, such as non-living but self-replicating molecules (biopoiesis).

From: Kevn Klein
Keep up... Abiogenesis isn't the theory of universal common descent.

From: Kevn Klein
Sorry I can't keep up with three or more at the same time.

I don't think we expect any different results, we are at work and bored and Kevn entertains us. It's like how you don't want to look at that animal run over in the road because you know you will see guts and a crushed eyeball looking at you, but you look anyways.

Let me stop laughing first.....

OK...so because they both....alright gotcha.

SO then we can logically conclude that Abiogenesis and UCD are both accurate, because God is not a living corporeal being and is one source that spouted a bunch of nonliving matter that evolved into living beings from a single microbial ancestor? God, of course, being Xenu, the scientologists' spaceship captain that seeded the planet from a starship that looks like a DC-9, causing volcanoes to blow souls all over the earth.

After all, they all deal with the creation of life. They must be related.

I got more than that for linking Kevn to scientology by his own logic..
