OLT stands for Origin of Life Viewpoint. This is to ensure that nobody feels the other side is being given preference
OLH stands for Origin of Life viewpoint Holder

1 Which is your OLV?

Naturalistic abiogenesis/ chemical evolution.

2 Should schools teach your OLV only?

In science classes? Yes, but OOL isn't really school level beyond mentioning hypotheses.

3 Do variations in colour, size or shape prove your OLV?

?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WTF?

IMO, the survey maker isn't qualified to make the survey (and I'm being polite here).

Whatever what?

I tried to answer your first few questions on the origin of life, and came up against one that made no sense in the context.

What does the colour and shape question mean in relation to abiogenesis?

Re: Questions and answers to the survey

Try "origin of species". You said that might seem biased, so word it as "origin of the organisms we see around us", or something like that.

That should be uncontroversial to both sides.

Some say that such variations indeed prove their "explanation for the beginning of life", whichever explanation that may be. I wanted to know how many did and who didn't.

Changes in colour and shape? They do? Well, certainly not me.

Good luck, anyway, and I'm glad we've sorted out that "origin of life" refers only to life's very beginning as far as the scientific side of the debate is concerned, hence a lot of the confusion.
