Ok...summary on the origin of life.
I don't actually feel like writing a paragraph so I'm going to list some general stuff.
Pre-Darwinian.
Ribozymes (enzymes made from RNA)
Elementry Translation
Lateral Gene Transfer
Extremely fast "evolution"/"devolution"
High evolutionary temperature/tempo
Warm conditions don't allow significant structure stabilization
Micelles, etc, elemantry rudiments of life
As the evolutionary temperature cools, we get crystalization of more complex structures, and expansion of the translation mechanism incorporated into the first little progenotes.
I'm confused, though...how isn't that macroevolution, then? I mean, we're going from single-celled organisms into multi-celled organisms, right? Which would then go to different organisms which would then form the various kingdoms, families, etc. that we know today.
Speaking of taxonomy...
Fun fact: The Bible is proven wrong because it descrined Jonah as being swallowed by a fish when it is believed that it was a whale that swallowed him. Therefore, Christianity fails.

Keep two things in mind.
1. That "defination" of "macroevolution" is something in my basic bio textbook. I have NOT seen that definition anywhere else and I am highly skeptical of its definition, both scientifically and historically.
I really don't feel I should address this further, it causes too much confustion.
2. Even if that "definition" is accurate, yes, pro- to eukaryotes and single to multiple celled organisms would be "macroevolution" Keep in mind even in this crappy "definition" of a failed concept, "macroevolution" only applys to characteristics that define higher taxa, such as an amniotic egg, or gills, flight.
It is absurd that a scientific textbook is discussion evolution ABOVE the population level. I also don't know how they distinguish convergent evolution from "macro"
Oh, get over yourself. If I were to say that we talked about Hinduism in lecture and it "made my blood boil," I'd be labeled as an intolerant SOB living in the 1200s or something. HOW DARE THEY SPREAD THEIR LIES ABOUT REINCARNATION AND CRAP.
Also, did ushomefree get rightfully whobanned?
(Heh, it's a new term.)

If only ID was as credible as Hinduism... 🙄
People can delude themselves as they wish, but ID doesn't make and scientific sense whatsoever and fails on many logical fronts as well.
