Question
Has scientific experimentation proven that life spontaneously originated on Earth from non-living matter?
No. Experiments have shown that life comes from life and is not spontaneously generated. Some organic molecules have been artificially produced but not living material.
But life had to spontaneously appear at some time didn't it. We have a paradox here. We had nonliving matter and then we had living matter.
