Honestly speaking, that should be a sep thread if you wanted to discuss that.
I was only interested in the aspect of dev after life existed and do not want to get into a religious discussion of any sort.
My comment on faith was a generic faith . If you believe in an unproven theory one must be taking it on faith....a belief in it for whatever reason.

I am not getting into faith issues either. Only want to establish the initial conditions that give rise to life are governed by laws of nature, e.g. thermodynamics and that once established that symbiosis gave rise to the emergence of the multicellular eukaryotes. This sets the stage for the emergence of more complex life forms and diversity of life as we know it today. You have wanted hard scientific evidence, not speculation, conjecture, or theory. I am trying to provide that evidence and show how we go from the micro- to the macro-system analysis that you are looking for. We aren't there yet, but I hope that you see we are getting there.
Like the study of Islam, evolutionary biology is not going to be done in one or two posts on this forum. You've exposed me to a whole new area of study (Islam) and I am returning the favor by exposing you to a whole new way of thinking about the origin of life and evolution of life's diversity.
