Evolution has taught that life arose from non-life for decades. I was taught this in school as were all of my friends.
For starters, that was not me.

And what you are confusing is the fossil record and general biology with the process of evolution. The fossil record shows that life has progressed from unicellular life to the diversity of life we know today, and evolution is the best explanation of the fossil record. It explains the divergence of life from the first known living organisms some 3.5 billion years ago, based on the natural laws, so that is what is taught in science class. Science does not teach supernatural laws, as supernatural is by definition not a natural process subject to scientific study.

Before the evidence of life we have a period from 4.55 billion years ago to 3.5 billino years ago that there does not show evidence of life. The logical conclusion based on this evidence is that life started in that period. Abiogenesis is the best explanation of that starting of life that we have based on the natural laws, so that is what is taught in science class. Science does not teach supernatural laws, as supernatural is by definition not a natural process subject to scientific study.

Thus in general biology classes that teach an overview of abiogenesis and evolution you get introduced to the concepts of science and the explanations that science provides for the evidence from the fossil record.

And you still are stuck with using the definitions of abiogenesis and evolution as used in the sciences, and not your personal versions. If you want to find out what evolution teaches you need to study biology further than what is presented in high school.

Evolution is nothing more than a social control. If you believe it, you are controlled.
Which of course is just more of your world wide conspiracy theory based on your cognitive dissonance.

Enjoy.
