the theoly of evolution does not require that life originated through any specific process and also because the mechanics of the theory are not applicable unless life already exists.

If you do not define life this statement is meaningless.

How do you define life, used in the context of yoiur statement above, from non-life?

How would you define "human"?

You are lawyering. Both evolution and biology in general have trouble defining "life" in the abstract. And the problem is precisely because the definitions, at the extremes, are arbitrary.

There is no single set of criteria, though a common definition is an entity that can grow, metabolize, respond to stimuli and reproduce. Of those characteristics, reproduction is the most vital for evolution; evolution cannot occur without reproduction.
