>almost half of the european and american public believe scientists have created simple life in a lab>yet scientists dont have a clue and are no close to solving the origin of life problem than 100 years ago>if you have a personal conversation with these biologists most of them unironically claim its possible as long as there is aloooooooooooooot of time to work with>yet they cant construct life even with their own intentional actionshow much longer until the meme of abiogenesis gets exposed? why are scientists so afraid of emergence and teleology? is it because its sounds too much like muh sky daddy? Is teleological thinking inherently unscientific?
>>16260102Personally I believe there is some degree of teleology in evolution. This doesn't necessarily imply a "sky daddy". However, teleology is only one factor. Randomness and free will are equally important. Determinism is a dangerous dogma.
>>16260124>This doesn't necessarily imply a "sky daddy"but does the average scientists believe that?>free will are equally importantexplain
>>16260102Yea I agree this is what I’m screaming about all the time. The public has the implicit assumption about science that isn’t true.
>>16260124I believe in god. But I also believe in deterministic characteristics in species. I’m not really a fan of evolution in the context on the theory of its origin. But I will concede that Darwin was spot on with a good amount of his work. I also believe modern atheism derives from these scientific dogmas. It won’t hurt to say we don’t know some things. And that’s the beauty of discovery.
>>16260102>almost half of the european and american public believe scientists have created simple life in a labBut they have.>yet scientists dont have a clue and are no close to solving the origin of life problem than 100 years agoThat's also not true, but I fail to see what one has to do with the other.>yet they cant construct life even with their own intentional actionsAs said above, they have.
>>16260364No they haven’t idiot keep dreaming
>>16260102If abiogenesis we would have new lines of evolutionary descent appearing spontaneously all the time especially when the conditions for life have just improved over geological time
>>16260364wrong
>>16260437>keep dreamingyes, we will keep dreaming, you keep ignorant>>16260708don't give a shit about your personal opinion,
