I never heard of spontaneous generation until you used it. You're trying to drag a red herring across our path. As the others here have told you, evolution doesn't explain the origin of life, it explains how plants and animals change and adapt over time. Evolution has been adequately proven as much as creationism has been thoroughly debunked, ridiculed and abandoned, and is only pursued by a minority whose mind is bound tightly shut with ecclesiastical chains.

@disquisition73 ...so? what's the link? Perhaps I am misinterpreting your use of the term spontenous generation (English is not my first language) but evolution, from what I know, study the evolution of life, how it transform and adapt to fit with it's surounding... evolution never tried to explain the origin of life.

@disquisition73 What do you mean by “Spontaneous generation”? In any event, the thrust of my argument here is that religion is a fraud perpetrated by the wealthy in order to blind people to injustice, make them slaves to the wealthy who promote religion while at the same time having absolutely no belief in religion, other than as a tool, and have no morality, again, other than to use as a tool to enslave working call people. I believe creationism is a sham.

Thirty five bucks a year membership fee to support NCSE is a great way to actually do something to fight creationist propaganda in public schools.
Our kids are our future. Support NCSE!

Is that a laser pointer or a light sabre? I had no idea Genie was a Jedi. She's been keeping that well hidden.

Having to justify Evolution is like still having to justify that the world is not flat. Creationists, with all their blunt ecclesiastical dogma, are quite happy to use the rest of science such as air travel, cars, dental and medical treatment &c.

Wow, a video from 1991. Amazed it's not in sepia... (okay, slight exaggeration maybe).

Good presentate:I have a theory of my own, as to why evangelicals and the like religious conservatives are so stuck on creation vs. science: If they can get people to ignore science and facts as an article of faith it is much easier to convince them that environmental hazards are not real, human rights don’t matter, social justice is immoral and wars for profit are what God wants. The wealthy of the world own everything including religion. Thus religion is another tool to increase their wealth.

@disquisition73 Of course the science of evolution has NOTHING to do with the issue of the “Origin of life”. Evolution is the science of how life changes over time. Evolution is science, religion is fraud. Some people like to claim that evolution is a region, the same way they claim atheism is a religion. Such arguments are nonsense. This gets back to why creationist want their religion taught in schools, to teach nonsense.
