Russ, thanks for the brevity. Let's see if it helps.

Let's boil all of this down to something simple.
RAZD. Do you believe that primordial soup turned into humans over time?
If not, where do you believe humans came from?
If so, I'm sorry.
Short answer, no, I don't believe that, I believe that we don't know, and can't know one way or the other from the current evidence and base of knowledge.

I do think there is a possibility, but believe 100% positive? Nope. Nor do I think that anyone can be reasonably 100% positive.

Now it's my turn: if the first life did begin in a 'primordial soup' - a mixture of amino acids that contain all the basic ingredients of life - do you think that evolution, the change in hereditary traits in populations from generation to generation, cannot account for the diversity of life we know, including - but not limited to - humans?

Do you think that an omnipotent etc deity could not foresee that eventuality? If not then I'm sorry.

Enjoy.
