I didn't mean to imply that it wasn't used in earnest. The term was originally coined by a Russian scientist proposing that life emerges from matter naturally, without the need for external influence (which is essentially what abiogenesis is).
But I admit, it's only in my personal experiences that it has been used as pejorative by creationists.
