My understanding is that evolution addresses the origin of life by virtue of electrical events altering carbon molecules (or similar). That it is something that we have not replicated in a lab means little - we also haven't turned an ape into a human, but we can see how the progression existed.
Of course, what was the origin of the carbon molecule? Or the electrical energy? Some would say the Big Bang - but I've never been able to wrap my head around that explanation ... what about BEFORE the Big Bang? As long as God can be considered first cause (whenever and whatever that was), evolution will never suffice. However, ID and/or creationism is not specifically attempting to explain first cause, so they can be discounted as purely agenda driven as long as they are proposed as alternatives to evolution.
