But I wanted to just ask before discussing your article whether or not you are committed to always rejecting all aspects of OOL research from the start - since a major talking point (at least from my limited perspective) of EN is that since abiogenesis is ‘so unlikely’ therefore some intelligent being (who just so happens to have the characteristics of the God of the Bible) intervened.

That is a fair question.

A corollary question: What parts of OOL research do you think is helpful and valid?
