Abiogenesis is the origin of life through spontaneous generation, which is not "natural" or "physical". I believe those that have stated abiogenesis as the answer are wrong.
The answer you are looking for is evolution; however, the "Big Bang" occurred b/c of natural, chemical, and physical processes also, but I wouldn't say that was the origin of life- just the origin of our universe. Evolution is how life originated.

The Theory of Evolution.
It certainly isn't the theory of Creation that says God spontaneously created all life out of nothing more than light (the first thing he created).
I only know of two theories of the origin of life and the scientific one is that life started through a series of chemical reactions, in a pool that could support life and with other physical processes like lightning.

I'd go with abiogenesis, even though it's been "proven" not to exist. (stupid swan necks) Abiogenesis is the creation of life through inanimate matter. Hence the name: A, meaning "not"; bio, meaning "life", genesis meaning "origin", so it's the origin of life through the absence of life. O_o

"...the material explanation for the emerging of our planet. It's not the whole puzzle. There was a thought first, and from that everything else happened, including the creation of galaxies and universes."
