    Abiogenesis theory keeps being changed and remade because the assumptions keep being disproven (ie early Earth was full of volatile gasses.. until someone proved it was not). A theory, like abiogenesis, simply withstands many experiments and has not yet been proven wrong. Everything in science is falsifiable. So there will always be loopholes and things you may find to be a bit of a stretch. But until someone can find that the theory is actually false, it holds.

    You used the correct word. We were created. We did not evolve.

    Atoms and molecules (even in something as simple as water = H2O) do NOT combine at random. This has been known for centuries.

    Given enough time and material, gazillion combinations will have been "tried" by nature. First some simple ones, then more complicated ones (like enzymes) and, building up on previous steps, one day you get a molecule that can make copies of itself.

    The concept is relatively easy, once you have enzymes, because their "job" is to line up smaller molecules next to each other, so they can make larger molecules.

    I do not know of a single evolutionary theory that claims molecules bond in random ways. Not even the 13th century version favored by the Church. The Church saw evolution as a proof of God's existence "to deny evolution is to deny God" (Summa Contra Gentiles, around AD1260, by Thomas Aquinas).

    What may be random are mutations, which may make a new individual (whose genetic inheritance is modified by the mutation) better equipped to cope with the environment (in which case he has increased chances to survive and produce more offsprings) or worst off than his ancestors (in which case, he is less likely to have many offsprings who, in turn, may inherit the mutation and continue to have low probability of survival).

    I think it is like the old story about an infinite number of monkeys and an infinite number of word processors. Just by accident one of the monkeys is bound to reproduce the complete works of Shakespeare.
