Also what is so silly about a god creating the earth as so many scientists and the public even think, when yet it is very very mainstream science to believe that there was a thing called a singularity so small that it is but a mathematical point of definition, hardly more. And yet this thing so miniscule somehow held the contents of the entire universe and for no particular reason about 13.7 billion years ago it went BANG and now we are all here..... well what a pleasant coincidence..... Much more reasonable than "God created the heavens and the earth" NO it's not scientific to think something like a God did it. It is more reasonable to think that it just happened with out a reason at all. Well I do think some people, and yes even scientists, are beginnning to see the irony there. Much as they are beginning so see the amazing improbability of life as complex as our selves. I mean, how many people have really looked at the explanations of natural selections and the idea of the selfish gene and all of this "life just wants to be" stuff and all the theories to explain the mechanics of natural selection and said shit there is no way they have a hold on it. first of all and I am not going to go very much further than that..... why would life if it were going for survival value come up with something that is a mere millisecond in the history of life when single cell microbs have been in existence quite happily ever since life got going and if it weren't for them we couldn't even exist not just because they got oxygen levels headed upward but that if you were to wipe out all our friendly bacteria we would all just die. So who needed who first them or us? And if that were even a plausible question why tack on this neocortex that lets me be so smart as to allow me to ask these questions? Where is the survival value there? Seems like cancer would be a better explanation for the honing up on the complex organs and such like we have..Better than natural selection if it happens before reproductive age, and it would give an explanation for oncogenes. I think a guy wrote a book on that too but I imagine he was banned to the basement of some university. any way so much for that. I have more on the scintillating grandiosity of life and philosophy and so forth coming later........
