What kind of an argument is that?
I wouldn't call it an argument, it's just pointing out facts.

We're not talking about whose idea it is.
I guess that you don't understand the implications. Repeating common knowledge isn't an argument.

you're wrong in your facts, but this is not the place for that argument.
So if reality contradicts your opinions, reality is wrong ?

Anyway, what matters is: whether evolution (methodological naturalism) can explain the first 'replicators', as you call them.
What do you think?
I think that you should make up your mind whether you mean "evolution" or "science". Methodological naturalism includes a lot of things that aren't evolution. Evolution can't explain the first replicators, by the very nature of evolution. However, there is every reason to think that science will eventually come up with a possible explanation.
