So, how do you think it all started? Was life spoken into exsistence as the Bible says...or did the unthinkable and impossible happen and it was zapped into exsistence by a bolt of lightning as Darwin and his followers believe? How is it any more unbelievable that it was spoken into exsistence as opposed to spontaneous formation out of...nothing?

Darwin...a man...God...a Divine Creator? I'll put my money on the Divine Creator.
I think I was being rather generous :?
Yes you were being quite generous since electrical discharges have been OBSERVED to create organic molecules while talking has not.

If evolution vs creation could be compared to a criminal trial, the prosecution would have enough evidence to convict on evolution, and it would have insufficient evidence for a conviction on abiogenesis. Meanwhile, the defense would be ranting about how the client is completely innocent of both charges because you can't prove God didn't do it.
