What's amazing here is that the definition I provided of abiogenesis is essentially the same as the one you provided. The only difference is that the one you provided has a lot more scientific-sounding "fluff". Nevertheless, the fact remains that:

when you boil down the faith of abiogenesis, you are believing that rocks turn into humans given enough time.

I have an urge to compliment you, Russ, on your patience in sticking to this point. If only one span is missing from evolutionism's bridge, it cannot be used to cross the waters of reality. I noticed this quite a while ago, but I don't have the restraint to focus on any single lie in the pile.

Your brief statement's no straw man, and neither can it be truthfully classified as inaccurate. The problem is that it's too easy to understand, when you phrase it that way.

Abiogenesis is handily ruled out on grounds of both physical and informational entropy. It postulates the abolition of Biogenetic Law and the revival of Spontaneous Generation (its formerly-used synonym). And although it's not admitted, the burden of proof lies entirely on it's advocates.

The best scientific knowledge available indicates that life doesn't come from non-life. There's nigh on unanimity on this point. Along come some fellows who claim that in their imaginary past, this wouldn't be the case. The burden of proof is exclusively their own. But they haven't come close to proving their case - they've just accumulated a longer laundry list of reasons it can't be so. Have they imagined new stories to maintain their faith? Sure, dozens! But that's not evidence.
