Why did Evolutionists back away from Origin of Life arguments of science?
Probably because they saw it was a loosing battle for Darwinism.
As Francis Crick, Nobel Prize winner for the DNA model said:
[b]"Every time I write a paper on the origin of life, I swear I will never write another one, because there is too much speculation running after two few facts" [/b]
I assume you've found some new evidence claiming that evolution has been used to try to explain the initial origin of life since you've bought this up again after I pointed out that your link for it said no such thing?
And just to clarify another question recently asked that you seem to have dodged:
Do you believe that God is Omniscient?
Do you believe that God is Omnipresent?
Do you believe that God is Omnipotent?
Just so we can avoid putting words into your mouth or tarring you with an inappropriate brush in future?

The theory of Evolution still does lean on abiogenesis does it not? If abiogenesis falls through the carpet so does the TOE as a proper theory of explaining origins.
Unless of course you just want to use it as a theory to explain the diversity of life.
There have been hypothesis on the origin of live other than abiogenesis on Earth. For example it has been sugested that life originated on mars or some other planet or a meteorite. Whether life got here by means of abiogenesis or off some alien spaceship does not in any way affect the evidence for or against evolution.
If you want 'a proper theory of explaining origins' then you must first explain what you mean by 'origins'. Abiogenesis can hardly be called 'The Origin' but rather an important step in our history.

I've still not seen any evidence that it has ever been used by evolutionary biologists to try to explain the first origin of life. KJ stopped talking about the claim a while ago when I pointed out that his source for it actually said nothing of the kind. He then bought this subject up again a few posts ago so I was just asking for the new evidence he must have found.

Depending on how you interpret the evidence that is before you. If you examine the evidence with a presupposition in your mind with regards to what you want the evidence to tell you then you should not be surprised if you see what you want to see in the evidence that is before you.

He has a plan for Scott, and Kelly and Ammanion and King and all of you (my apologies for
misspellings).
God breathed Adam into existance...refute that...no, try and do that.
God made the entire expanding universe that you see.
God made every living creature on the planet.
Again, these were accomplished through no scientific process.
God created Darwin too and all of us.
You have to believe in God, and know Jesus as your own personal Savior.
All of the previous evoultion processes, etc. can be refuted by the Bible.
No, you don't believe me
then go to: http://www.answersingenesis.org
Still don't believe me?
Go to http://www.drdino.com
Still wrestling with evolution vs. creation?
Go to http://www.icr.org
I still pray for you guys each and every day.
I know that God etched his Word upon your hearts.
Someday you will find out the TRUTH.

Strange that whenever you speak to an Atheist regarding the matter of origins, they tend to *bring up the TOE...
*No pun intended.
But you are correct about that.
What gives with evolutionists vs atheists????
I mean, the Bible says 'Every knee shall bow'
that means ALL of them
I fear for some of them, that's why I pray for all of you guys everyday!
