I have never believed that chirality has ever been an issue for biology,
or my religious beliefs.  There is no reason to think that it ever was
an issue for biological evolution.  Life uses L amino acids to make
proteins, but they are only the proteins that were created after there
was a genetic code.  The peptidase in ribosomal RNA chose L amino acids
as the ones that it could join together into a polymer.  D amino acids
do not work for that peptidase.

Stop. That's bad biochemistry. Peptidyl transferase activity within
the ribosome works just fine with D amino acids if they are attached
to aminoacylated tRNAs. Specificity for L over D amino acids occurs
at the step of Amino Acid + tRNA to AA-tRNA.
Please don't BS about such basic foundational biochemistry. It doesn't
help.
