There are no "laws" in science dealing with things that are unknown, unsettled, or have ambiguous data.

Yet, it is taught in school that life does not arise from non-living matter, or at least it was up until about 6 or 7 years ago.

Since it is known that life arose from non-life, no one would postulate at law which contradicts that occurance. There are now "laws" in science dealing with things that are unknown, unsettled, or have ambiguous data.

This, in fact, is not known for certain.

That's in the "cell theory" I think.

You're confusing several different concepts.
