No. Nor it it the first step.
There are no steps.
You are mashing two unrelated things together.
Evolution, and abiogenesis.
They are NOT the same thing.
Same question.
Over and over and over.
They will never ever learn this
simplest things.

There is a tendency to regard anything that contradicts Genesis as "evolution."

Kind = Genus

genus (n.)

(Latin plural genera), 1550s as a term of logic, "kind or class of things" (biological sense dates from c. 1600), from Latin genus (genitive generis) "race, stock, kind; family, birth, descent, origin"

Wow! Noah had to have enough food for 4 elephants. That’s a lot.

That actually makes me think about an issue that the Ken Hams and Kent Hovinds of the world ignore:
Just how many "kinds" of dinosaur there were.

People love dinosaurs and it's always been an audience loser to pretend that they either didn't exist at all or were Nephilim mad science experiments... but then you have to account for just how many "kinds" of dinosaur Noah would have had to stash away.

Not if God is running the show.

1 Kings 17:16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

Mark 8:19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.

There could be ten trillion kinds of dinosaurs alone, and plenty of room left over, if the Ark was four dimensions.

Note here, where Paul mentions four dimensions of space ...

Ephesians 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And note here ...

Revelation 6:14a And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together;

... where you need an "extra dimension" to roll a three-dimensional space up as a scroll.

And correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't even science recognize not four, but ELEVEN dimensions of space?

I'm never bothered by any Creationist narrative that requires miracle after miracle. It comes worth the territory.

I don't like when Creationists make claims along the lines of "Well actually, science supports Noah fitting millions of animals into a single large wooden box."

I applaud you for that.

Most people treat God as if He's on a quota system, when it comes to a series of miracles to accomplish His purposes.

Same here.

Saying they were baby animals and other plausible-sounding explanations discredits all of reality, if you ask me.

Because there's a LOT more to reality than can be found in a telescope or microscope.

There is also the mass spectrometer, the test tube, the particle accelerator, the rock hammer, etc.

And they can't find a single person from the tribe of Asher or Zebulun.
