Squirril,
Your capacity to argue at the edges of an issue – while apparently pleasing yourself intellectually – is not in question.
“Darwin says nothing about WHERE the genes started… only that species appear to change over time, and given enough time ALL species could have evolved through slow and subtle changes.”
1) A theory intended to explain life on Earth (in its grand view and certainly within its modern practice, that is what ToE is) but says nothing of how life was to have begun, is a scientific cop out.
2) The evidence that would be associated with your latter statement has not been forthcoming to the great shegrin of science – in fact the opposite regularly is found to the the case.
