Not true, Life begets Life in one form or another. There is no
abiogenesis in Gebesis, Let us note once again what Genesis 2:7 states
about the creation of man. Does it say that Jehovah God put in man a
soul separate and distinct from his body? That is what many religious
people want to read into the text. In fact, the Spanish Bible
translation by F. Torres Amat–S. L. Copello, of 1942 C.E., reads, when
translated into English: “Then the Lord God formed the man of the slime
of the earth, and breathed in his face a breath or spirit of life, and
the man remained made living with a rational soul.” This is very
different from the Roman Catholic Douay Version, which says: “And man
became a living soul.” Also, the version published by The Jewish
Publication Society of America reads: “And man became a living soul.”
In
order that our readers may see the literal word-for-word reading (from
right to left) of the Hebrew text we present below a photostatic copy of
this part of Genesis 2:7 in The Interlinear Literal Translation of the
Hebrew Old Testament, by G. R. Berry, copyright 1896-1897:
the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 8 ¶ And the
LORD God planted a garden

living on the planet comes from something living before it. And that can
be demonstrated with the scientific method.
