When a star goes "bang," a lot of complicated nuclear reactions happen
in its core. These nuclear reactions produce things like carbon,
oxygen, nitrogen, which react with existing elements like hydrogen. No
planets need be involved.

If you want to dispute this, take a moment to google "stellar
nucleosynthesis" before posting anything.

Organics don't form in a vacuum.


Absolutely false. Carbon, hydrogen, and other elements don't give a wet
fart about where they are when they encounter each other. Stars produce
those elements in great quantities. No planets are needed.
