Bill, I have before me a picture of Henry Ford holding
a rough sketch of his concept automobile.
Using a magnifying glass, I’ve counted the moles on his
face, hoping to determine which part he molded first.
Perhaps if I had all the molds together, it would help
me decide.  I know.  I’ll call a T. O. E. truck

Again, your observation supports the opposite of what you intend, Zero.

For example, I didn't know Henry Ford created a rough conceptual sketch of the Model T. You studied Ford a bit and now I do. I know more about the causal story behind the Model T than I did a moment ago (it included a rough conceptual sketch executed by Henry Ford).

Which came first: light, transparency,
the eye, the optic nerve, or the brain?

Light came first, when photons decoupled from matter approximately 300,000 years after the big bang.

Bill, I see.  So light was required to ultimately create
an eye inside a dark egg inside a dark womb?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Thanks Bill

Now concerning the ‘big bang’, size is relevant so how many little bangs do you suppose are required to make one big one?

Same number as how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

It was definitely the easiest I've had so far, which was a nice change of pace.

What does your semester look like?

Now, is it because I don't know exactly what tool (if any) God used to manipulate atoms that you're contending I have "no mechanism"?  

I asked you before how your god created things and you just waved your arms around and waffled. You're doing the same thing now. I've seen no evidence that you have the vaguest idea of how, when or why a god created anything.

And I asked how nature created the E. coli amino acid synthesis system and you all just waved your arms around and waffled too.  I too have seen no evidence that any of you have the vaguest idea of how or why nature created anything.

Why did your god create the universe?
How did your god create the universe?

There are over 2.5 million results for evolution on google scholar. Even if it were true that nobody here knew anything about the questions you ask then you should take little comfort from that fact. As the fact remains that you are only here because your ideas cannot compete in the real marketplace of ideas commonly known as "science". You cannot compete in the real battleground.

You've relegated yourself, consciously or otherwise, to a venue where you can dissemble, avoid and pretend not to hear arguments devastating to your position and yet still retain the right to return time after time to spout more of the same.

Congratulations Daniel. Keep up the good work. More like you and the world might be able to shake of the pasts delusions sooner then it perhaps might have if you did not exist. You are running backwards my lad. Keep it up.

Oh, and it took you, what, 4 days to come back with that?

Read any of those books you were told you could get on inter-library loan yet?

Bible changed much since you last banged your head with it?

EDIT: Let's remind ourselves of what Daniel wants
Quote
What I want is an undisputed (by the experts), verifiable (all chemical steps worked out), possible pathway from non-life to life, or (if you read my blog) from some plausible precursor to the present E. coli amino acid synthesis system for lysine, threonine, isoleucine, and methionine. There must be sufficient detail and the scientific community must reach a consensus that, 'yes, we've figured it out'.

Now, I don't have the background in chemistry to fully understand most of this. I'm currently studying a biochemistry textbook to try to learn as much as I can about such things. In fact that's where I got the idea for this prediction in the first place. I found the E. Coli biochemical pathway in there and I thought, "how do they explain this?".

Link
Tell me Daniel, how do you suppose the path "from non-life to life" is any different from the question "how did life arise".

So, it's clear, until you fools on this board answer Daniels question "how did life arise" it's all just handwaving and it's obvious that none of you have the vaguest idea of how or why nature created anything ever anyway because you can't answer that simple question.

Twat.

A teacher at school is starting her sex education class. She draws a picture of a tit on the board. She asks her class if anyone knows what it is? A little boy speaks up and says they are titties, my mom has two of them. The teacher says very good. Then she draws a penis on the board and asks if anyone knows what it is? The same boy says it's a dick, my dad has two of them. She says two of them? He says yeah, one about this big (2 inches) he pees out of and one about this big (6 inches) he brushes mommy's teeth with.
