309. Untrue again.

While it's true that we have not been able to create life itself out of inorganic materials, there have been plenty of tests that have shown we could create the building blocks of life, in the form of amino acids that when combined in sufficient fashion are the very same materials that make up organic life.

Now the primordeal soup theory vey well might not be how life was created on this planet, but The idea that that isn't more plausible than "tada..magic" is simply ludicrous.

With that said, it's also a non-sequiter, because the absence of believe in a magic god doesn't require one to believe in any particular scientific theory on the creation of life, the universe and everything.

What we know is that for tens of thousands of years people have been ascribing the unexplained to the work of their gods. That's where the term "the god of the unknown" comes from. And for just as long human discovery has managed to learn more about these mysteries and one by one proven to find the natural cause of these mysteries to be explainable and NOT the work of a magic god.

So, while it's true that there are still many mysteries out there that we don't know, it's a very poor bet, to think that any of these are more likley to be the work of the gods, when we eventually uncover the underlying nature of them, than any of the mysteries of the past.
