Who of your deities, excuse me, scientists, were around to see how life began on earth?
Not one.
They just make things up as they go along, they die, then the next one of your gods comes around and says 'oh, that last god had it wrong. I have it right', just to be found out to be wrong by the following god who takes his place.
"thought to be", "might have" "suggested" "possibly" "could have" "alternative theory" "may have been" "the assumption ".....................BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW. THEY WERE NOT THERE. Now there is the type language that you really can believe in, right?
