abiogenesis paired with the concept of evolution really makes no sense at all if you think about it critically for more than a few minutes

Im not a christcuck by any means but it seems like theres a HUGE part of the picture we are missing here. our current theories and models of life are not enough to explain away this paradox. am I wrong?

This implies that a simple self-replicating thing is impossible. How do you know this is true?
>>
>>16913303
RNA chains replicate by themselves in nature under simple mechanical stress, no need for machinery.
>>
>>16913315
RNA is quite complex and is assumed to have evolved, so that doesn't address OP in any way.
>>
>>16913321
RNA self assembles from naturally occurring nucleic acids. Only the information encoded in it is evolved. So yes it does blow OP out entirely.

>RNA self assembles from naturally occurring nucleic acids
Ok. And what's the likelihood of such randomly self-assembled RNA to self-replicate?
>>
>>16913340
That's irrelevant for the question at hand. The mechanism exists and is clearly likely enough to produce complex life at least once in the universe. Strictly speaking 100% of RNA chains encounter some kind of self replication when they break apart due to mechanical stress which is more than enough to drive evolution for this purpose anyways

Another mentally ill retard. Maybe someone sane has got an explanation?
>>
>>16913303
In principle, abiogenesis violates probability. Were such an event to occur completely dismantles many basic premises of evolution. Any argument for simplicity is irrelevant, any argument for likelihood is irrelevant. The universe has some kind of system solver at its core. It could be said that protein folding isn't the least likely thing to occur, for example randomly typing out shakespeare or the Iliad is also very unlikely, but even those outcomes would be the direct result of the same system solver. A most unlikely outcome. Some small corner of the universe hardly more than 10^80 atoms converged on events that have a likeliness far lower than 10^200000 repeatedly.
Once unlikeliness is removed from the deck, there is no reason to even think of evolution in their terms whatsoever. An animal could be anywhere by any reason. A particular line could be of nearly any imaginable construction. Genetics could change over night and change back for seemingly no reason.

>>16913303
The only explanation that makes sense is that life originated when most of the universe was hot enough to support life, and not only extremely small locations in goldilocks zones. That is the only way to overcome such absurdly small probabilities: with massively overwhelming volume. On top of that solves the problem of genetic complexity going from nothing to complex enough for simple life forms in an absurdly small time span.

Wouldn’t this be good for early life? Life is mutating faster and is able to learn how to reproduce. First asexually and later sexually.

>>cant have evolution without mostly accurate self replication
Planets and other celestial bodies evolve and they don't have have "mostly accurate self replication"

>cant have accurate self replication without complex machinery
The planet and other celestial bodies are complex machinery which is why accurate self replication can occur on them.
>cant have complex machinery without evolution
Which is why planets evolve from simpler elements.

Which part do you not understand, that planets evolve or that they don't self-replicate?

What does the "evolution" of planets have to do with evolution of biological life, brainlet?
>>
>>16916942
The context is evolution, biological life is not the only thing prone to evolution over time, despite OP falsely trying to assert as much.

Celestial Evolution and Biological Evolution are both examples of evolution that demonstrates how different things tend to develop more complexity and function over time.

OP:
>random mutation+natural selection has a bootstrapping problem
Free-tier LLM trying to simulate a jeet:
>BUT WHUT ABOUT MUH PLANETS, SAR? THIS COSMOLOGY TEXT ALSO USE THE TOKEN 'EVOLVE'!!!

The best part of it is that he correctly points out planets don't self-replicate and somehow ends up thinking that's a point in his favor. Abysmal quality board.
>>
>>16916953
I see you still can't debunk that celestial bodies also randomly mutate and are naturally selected by the environment they inhabit where they are absorbed and/or obliterated by larger celestial bodies in the local space, so it makes sense that you want to seethe.

>that's a point in his favor
If by that you mean it disproves OP's assumption that things that evolve depend on self-replication, sure.

Its only such low quality these days because of angry retards like you who can only seem to use the same tired boring angry retard template over and over while never learning how to make a logical point, only look for an opportunity to say one of the 8 insults you have memorized.
>>
>>16913303
>cant have evolution without mostly accurate self replication

Accurate replication would appear from the process of evolution.

>cant have accurate self replication without complex machinery

Which would appear during the process.

>cant have complex machinery without evolution

Hey you got one right. No, you cannot have complex machinery without evolution. Abiogenesis is the path, evolution is the math, still some stuff we don’t know. It’s the best answer other than spaghetti monsters.
>>
>>16913370
ask better questions
>>
>>16916967
The idea of a planet being part of the complex machinery required for abiogenesis is common. Planets of certain types and in certain windows and conditions create life of allow it to seed via panspermia from places where it was able to appear from abiotic sources. Assuming we don’t have the age of the universe wrong, which I’m definitely not sold on (fuck your baryon acoustics) life is likely way fucking older than we realize.

His meaningless babble falls under the "not even wrong" category. You can make the same meaningless claim about any physical configuration that settling into a stable state.

Except in the science like astrophysics where there are entire disciplines dedicated to studying planetary evolution.

Maybe according to your limited fallacious version of evolution that doesn't incorporate planetary evolution as studied by a global network of astrophysicists, but not according to math and science.

You can do this all day, but it won't change the fact that 'evolution' as used in cosmology (or physics in general) intersects 'evolution' as in the OP only in the general meaning of describing gradual change, or the way a system tends towards a stable configuration or a local optimum under some set of rules.
>>
>>16917044
Thanks for proving the relationship and showing you will never be able to point to any missing context since cosmological evolution and biological evolution do still describe the same basic thing of physical bodies changing over time to better conform to their environment, so there is no reason you can't have evolution without self-replication since that is exactly how celestial bodies evolve over time.

This is schizobabble, not cosmology (unless you count crackpots like Smolin). At best it falls under the "not even wrong" category.

>>
>>16917052
You can cope all day, but you still can't point out any missing context and you can only point out the similarities in cosmological and biological evolution.

>At best it falls under the "not even wrong" category
No, it wouldn't be a major part of astrophysics in that case and harvard science classes wouldn't have it in their curriculums.

>you're forced to extend the scope
I couldn't have been the one to do that because the scope had been extended that far since before I was even born.

You are just mad because you can not point out any missing context you keep insinuating, you can just find a new way to cope and insinuate there is some missing context.

There is no missing context. You're just mentally ill and unable to incorporate the context explicitly provided in the OP. See >>16917065

I accept your concession >>16916942 was another retarded statement because there is no missing context that filtered anyone, you are just getting filtered by the fact that planets evolve over time because admitting so destroys your thread's fallacious premise.

OP's context is evolution and as you pointed out planetary evolution is just planets changing over time instead of biological organisms.

I'm neutral on this debate, but do most evolutionists really believe this shit? They actually apply a theory on biological processes to the whole universe at large?

I guess that's one way to conveniently skirt by the abiogenesis question.

Probability does not really work when applied to events that lead to your own existence. Consider how unlikely the causal chain of events that went into making you even just considering the events that occurred within known history. Every single one of your ancestors had to survive, meet, and reproduce, and the genetic combination of every one of them was one out of many possibilities, yet some how you beat all the odds and were born.

>the fact that 'evolution' as used in cosmology (or physics in general) intersects 'evolution'
It doesn't just intersect, the theories necessitate a cosmological evolution that allows for biological evolution since science studies both organic and inorganic things simultaneously, its basic big bang theory.

>At best it falls under the "not even wrong" category.
Except it doesn't, big bang accounts first for cosmological evolution, then biological evolution withing the environment of planets and celestial bodies as the foundation of biological organisms, you are just too retarded to understand they are intrinsically connected by the fact that biological evolution necessitate evolving to fit into a planetary environment.

Neither is fungal evolution and plant evolution exactly the same thing, but they are all examples of evolution in action and there is no evidence that biological evolution can occur without first depending on some celestial body that can support biological life first evolving from the same base particles that compose organic bodies.
