Nope. As a priest to the Morrigan. Nope. Try again

What is funny to me is that people that de-couple abiogenesis from evolution on a scientific basis, just don't care about the total truth of the whole concept. They only care about being correct about the definition of what the science is called because it works for them intellectually and emotionally. Technically they are correct, but you can be technically correct and still be wrong in a different way, and everybody knows it, this happens in court rooms everyday.
Its nice how you try to ascribe why science keeps these separate to feelings of not wanting truth. You know as opposed to the fact that they would be separate mechanisms.

The fact is evolution has never been seen in a lab. Fruit flies remain fruit flies, mice remain mice. Nor has abiogenesis been demonstrated. Even under ideal controlled lab settings orchestrated by intelligent human beings we can not replicate the non-life to life transition. Making it all the more unlikely that random chaos could produce anything better! People can believe whatever they want, but abiogenesis and evolution are based entirely on faith and extrapolated data and it should not parade itself as empirical fact by any means. It is not science, it is a faith-based religion.

You still don't understand. A text book is not proof of anything. While a chapter night mention abiogensis in it. No credible scientist would try to tie evolution to abiogenesis.
So you've shown nothing Raggy. Beyond a continued ignorance of science.
