Since the theory of evolution denies creation and does not

that the "first cell" originated coincidentally within the laws
of nature, without any design, plan, or arrangement.

According to the theory, inanimate matter must have
produced a living cell as a result of coincidences. This,
however, is a claim inconsistent with even the most
unassailable rules of biology.

"Life Comes from Life"

In his book, Darwin never referred to the origin of life.
The primitive understanding of science in his time rested on
the assumption that living beings had a very simple
structure. Since medieval times, spontaneous generation, the
theory asserting that non-living materials came together to
form living organisms, had been widely accepted. It was
commonly believed that insects came into being from food
leftovers, and mice from wheat. Interesting experiments were
conducted to prove this theory. Some wheat was placed on a
dirty piece of cloth, and it was believed that mice would
originate from it after a while.
Similarly, worms developing in meat was assumed to be
evidence of spontaneous generation. However, only some
time later was it understood that worms did not appear on
meat spontaneously, but were carried there by flies in the
form of larvae, invisible to the naked eye.
Even in the period when Darwin wrote The Origin of
Species, the belief that bacteria could come into existence from
