I'm not aware of any working explanation for life origins that has reached the level of 'theory', though I could be mistaken.

So the study of life has no scientific explanation for the origin of life?

That's not what was said. "Explanation" and "theory" are not synonymous. There are several possibilities. Here is some information on RNA origins if you are interested. Some of those possibilities may legitimately be called hypotheses. I am not aware of any that have yet met the criteria of scientific theory.

I didn't say that. I said that to my knowledge, there is no theory for the ultimate origin of life. That means that there may be at least one hypothesis regarding life origins that has not reached the level of 'theory' yet (and in fact there are) or that there might even be a theory of which I'm not aware.
