Abiogenesis is the study of how life is created, and while there are many different and great theories, none are at the point we can say THAT is the one. Id dare say mainly because its impossible to conduct an experiment for it (contamination and size issues mainly). But because dont conclusively know how it happened does not mean god did it, it means we dont know yet.

Its impossible to have faith in something that works on empirical observation. There is speculation into whats unknown of course. But they still arent counted as truths until someone finds evidence.

Science changes, but generally not in the way you think, it just gets more accurate. Though yes occasionally there is a big breakthrough no longer able to be modelled by teh old theory. That doesnt mean the old theory was outright wrong, it had worked fine up until the point of change. Its just less right now. Hell older theories are often taught in schools as its easier to understand for example Newton's Theory of Gravity is able to approximate most situations just fine, though Einstein's General Relativity, is more accurate, its also harder to understand.

Einstein beleived in Spinoza's God, or a pantheistic deity, this is very unlike the Christian god, and some considered it a step towards modern atheism.

assume no laws/reprecussions

If the child wanted to die, and there wasnt any hope for him to get better, then I beleive it would be fine to euthanase him
