Ok guys, I need a quick answer.

Let me preface this by telling you that I like Dawkins. He seems a charming chap. And I will read him when I have more time. (Doing Soren K presently.) But I read the preface to <u>The Watchmaker</u> and the first sentence was this:


[ QUOTE ]
This book is written in the conviction that our own existence once presented the greatest of all mysteries, but that it is a mystery no longer because it is solved.

[/ QUOTE ]

So I skimmed ahead and he talks of the absurdity (my word not his) of going with a Creator. Then what he says about the origin of life is SPG spontaneous generation probability and leaves it at that (from I found with my brief skimming the book) . Tell me he has more than that for the origin life. Otherwise why the quoted first sentence?
