Science is not done via polls. Science is done by scientists.
Really? When was the scientific experiment done that proved that life sprang from non-life? Did I miss that one, somehow?
The ancient Greek rhetors believed that their "science" was far advanced, too. Of course, they believed in a geo-centric universe and that future events could be predicted by the movement of the stars.

It hasn't been done. But that's a completely separate thing. Evolution has nothing to do with how life originated. It deals with speciation only.
Science is not done with polls of the general population. It's that simple. You can believe the Theory of Evolution or not, and that fact has no effect on science.
But, please get over the idea that the Theory of Evolution has anything to do with the origins of life. It does not. I has to do only with speciation.
