Question

Isn't it the fundamentalist that believes in abiogenesis (aka spontaneous generation) the most?

Answer 1

Honestly I don't know.  Until today I had not heard of the term before, that I can remember.  That being the key point, that I can remember.  Since we Catholic's do believe in evolution (not darwinism though), I  guess it must be a fundie thing.

Answer 2

Don;t  give the real fundies any more confusion than they already have.  It's bad enough they can't tell the difference between atheists and agnostics (helped in part by the timid atheists who refuse to use the term themselves) without lying to them about spontaneous generation and abiogenesis being the same thing.

Answer 3

Only if they're allowed to add in their invisible magician who swoops about in the sky.

Answer 4

No.  The fundamentalist starts with an eternal Creator.  Not a something which has an unexplained origin, as evolution does.

Answer 5

Its the easiest part of science concerning life to attack, you didn't really think they'd go after evolution with there flimsy arguments?

Answer 6

Actually, yes - God spoke, and life spontaneously happened!

Answer 7

I don't think you can equate abiogenesis with divine creation.  The fundamentalist believes that life was created outside of natural law by a magical creature called God.  That's not the same as life springing without cause from non-living material.

Answer 8

Well they believe life was made from chemicals that don't even match what is really in the body.  That is pretty silly any way you cut it.

Answer 9

God made life possible not random molecule magically come together
