In my estimation, the farther back I look, the leap of faith it takes to presume that chem evo transitions itself into a bio-chemical evo which then transitions itself into bio-mechanical evo. on a magnitude, is equal, if not greater, than a Christian's presumption of a creator. But I will read your links as a (non-chemist) and try and grasp what is being said.

Again, thank you for your post.
