ummm...just about anyone with a clue about biology. See here for example (yes, it’s a Berkeley lib site; no, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong just because of that): http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evosite/misconceps/IAorigintheory.shtml

Abiogenesis is about the origins of life. Evolution is about the development of species thereafter. One of the biggest manipulative tricks that Creationists employ to confuse people is to say that evolution cannot be true because it can’t explain the origin of life. It doesn’t have to, and it doesn’t try to.

And yet the politicians and educators push on our children that “evolution” IS about the “origin of life”. And scientists do little to stop them.

Evolution would be much more widely accepted if it was not misapplied to history in a way that contradicts the beliefs of so many people, and common sense.
