Pretty difficult to demonstrate something '100% natural' in artificial lab conditions… we need to dismiss [abiogenesis]… Artificiality is irrelevant apparently, even though it requires intelligence and the relevant term is 'intelligent design'… you can't recreate a 100% natural event in a lab. It has artificial intervention.

This fucknut obviously fails to understand the context of "natural" here insofar as there is no real "artificiality coefficient" with regards to nature: things can either "happen in nature" or those things don't happen at all. If it happens at all, it happens "in nature" because "nature" encompasses literally everything.
And as it is, the point of the lab is to reproduce "normal" conditions of an earth that is long since gone.
"Pretty difficult to demonstrate something '100% natural' in artificial lab conditions… "
But at the same time, there are those crestionists dismissing ALL SCIENCE that cannot be duplicated in a lab.
There’s plenty natural phenomenons we are reproducing in laboratories. For exemple, on 1953, Stanley Miller simulated in a glass flask the original state of the Earth by submitting to spark a mixture of water, methane, dihydrogen and ammoniac for seven days, and found afterwards amino acids, including some used in living creatures.

“you can't recreate a 100% natural event in a lab.”
“It has artificial intervention.”
You know the Pendulum that shows Earth’s rotation? That’s an experiment. Pendulums do not occur naturally in the world. But the construction of the pendulum does not force it to turn at the rate the Earth does. So, it’s not a natural mechanism, but the part it’s measuring IS a natural force.
You’re just a luddite.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
