Has science proven creationism?

I believe that science has proven creationism. Not necessarily Christian style creationism, but that life was put on this planet by some sentient being. My logic: It has been proven by many experiments that life can be spontaneously generated by neither natural nor artificial means. By deductive reasoning, this leads me to believe that life was created by supernatural means. This means that life must have been created by some higher power. Now it is possible, though highly unlikely, that the creation of life could have been the result of some extremely rare event which created a bacterium-like organism from which all other life evolved. The reasons that human attempts to re-create this event have failed could be difference in the atmosphere of young Earth, incorrect proportions of the elements needed, et. However, there are two problems with this: First, the organism, being the only living thing on the planet, would likely have been unable to procure anything that could be used as nutrition, as most nutrients come from organic material, so it would have likely died very soon after being created. Second, the odds that the organism would be born into existence with the ability to reproduce just by coincidence are astronomical, even more so once you take into account the high odds that it would have been created in the first place. Therefore, I conclude that life was most likely put on this planet purposely by either a divine entity or an incredibly advanced group of extraterrestrial beings, though as to which, I have no evidence. Do not try to use evolution to disprove this. Evolution is how organisms change over time, it does not explain how they got their start. It is very possible that the creator of life on Earth chose to begin with a simple life form. This would have allowed more complex life forms in the future to be better adapted to their environment than if man had been created in our present state, especially with the planet's ever-changing environment. I have no evidence as to who or what put us here, why we were put here, how they came into existence, how they were able to put us here, or as to why the universe exists in the first place. All I know is that the evidence we have suggests that there is something else out there, something that wants life on this planet, and something that has the power to put life on this planet. It may be the Christian God, it may not, but it is definitely something. I do acknowledge the slight possibility that we are here totally by coincidence, although that is most unlikely based on the fact that we have been unable to create life intentionally, let alone by total coincidence. Accept my conclusion or don't, but I believe that it is scientifically sound.

Your grasp of logic, for that matter, is that of a child.
