2.) There are real good reasons why we use the term "Theory of Evolution" rather than "Law of Evolution".

A scientific theory can never become a law. apples and oranges.

3.) It is a giant leap to move from understanding evolution to claiming that it explains the origins of life.

Evolution is not about the origin of life.

How do laws evolve then? (Kind of funny if the answer is they spontaneously come into being).

The topic concerns origins of life. Your point is mine. Evolution as a theory is simple, and examples abound. This does not mean that it is correct to use it as widely as is commonly done.
