The probability of the right amino acids randomly combining so as to create a single folding protein (essential for life) is like 10 to the negative 240th power. A number bigger than all the molecules in the known universe. Ie. It’s impossible.

Not to mention chirality.

And what do you do with a single protein molecule? It’s useless by itself.

Absolutely. Not only do the molecules have to be in perfect order, you need a large number of them to appear together magically within an organic permeable membrane. Abiogenesis is a matter of faith, not science.
