"Spontaneous Generation" was a popular theory amongst religious and 
non-religious scholars for centuries. Louis Pasteur's experiment with 
the covered and uncovered "boiled broth" showed how microscopic life 
does not arise on it's own but must instead come from preexisting life 
(life comes from life).

Evolution, at it's core is lifeless chemicals randomly assembling 
themselves into protolife then life. So "spontaneous generation" at it's 
root core. Keep in mind that whatever the first life is speculated by 
evolution to have been, if it didn't reproduce, that would have been the 
end. So, they speculate reproducing chains of amino acids (protein 
sequences) right from the get go ... and this in an environment that 
makes their survival impossible. Indeed, Evolution makes people believe 
in miracles ... and my faith isn't that great.
