How Life Began

[Weatherman2020]

Bible says the universe had a beginning. Science caught up later and changed its beliefs to agree. So at some point life had to originate out of it. So if you want to keep God out of it, here’s your options on how life began.
Mix and match the 3 to whatever quantities you desire to create life:

1.

2. Temperature

3. Time

Have at it.

Why just three?

We know there are more than 3 elements comprising the human body.

In Genesis the material universe already exists as earth, water, and darkness.

Where does it say that?

"The bible says...." is not a reliable explanation for anything. It's just one of many creation tales, all of which were written by men in an age when fear and superstition were the norm.

Bible says the universe had a beginning.

If some scientists said the universe had a beginning, then that's one theory. Other scientists don't make the same statement.

It is entirely possible to science that there was no beginning and there will be no end.

So far, NOBODY said it was. So who are you responding to?

Imagine if there were an afterlife, what would it be like to exist forever. I think deep down we all know life is a fascinating struck of luck. Imagine the trillions of possibilities that somehow became you.

Artificial life made in lab can grow and divide like natural bacteria

Synthetic cells designed in 2016 have been modified through the addition of seven genes so they can grow and divide just like natural bacterial cells

True, but he was throwing out a QUESTION for discussion. That's not the same as repeatedly using it as an authority (even though it is)

BUT. Jesus ONLY use, "The Scriptures say..." I do too

Is this what comes out of the rude awakening so many Americans had yesterday. A grasping for meaning in an afterlife? A grasping for meaning in their miserable lives in which they see the extremist politics disintegrating?

No, the OP was throwing out a statement meant to discredit science.
But that wasn't even correct to begin with.

What’s the accepted theory that the universe has no beginning?

Uh? Go read the OP.

Only a fool will say God and science don’t exist together.

Just as reliable as “Doug says”.

Must suck to be so miserable like you. But doesn’t address the OP.

Some people think abiogensis required help from magic.

I see no reason to think that, any more than I see reason to invoke magical fairies or sky daddies to explain the formation of a star, or a volcano.

You’ve got the ingredients in the OP.
Tell me the one that’ll write a concerto.

That's a stupid question. Does not belong in a serious discussion.

It’s the crux of the topic.
