That page's biggest argument is that (paraph) "We've tried for 50 years to create life--and failed."-The problem is that abiogenesis itself suffers from a massve case of neglect... hardly anyone works on it, and by Shapiro's own discussion, most of that research was being done by the "crackpots" of his day. (My words, not his.)-Very few genuine people seem to be tackling the problem nowadays--mainly because you can't monetize it, and it's not a question deemed important to society. (We'd rather pay for medical treatments.)-In short, it's not respected, even among biologists and chemists.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
