However some of the points are confusing at least to me.

Trust me most scientists believe that something created us, after studying molecular biology for 10 years you realize that random occurances cannot have generated the DNA code and its meanings. That goes for astrophysicists.

It may be a strong possibility that nothing was ever created or evolved. We may simply be following a trail that was already there, like water running the easiest course it can take. Consider that time is merely a wave, and just like the ocean, there is a wave ahead of us and a wave behind as, the same things are repeating over and over again, we just can't see it very easily. Have you ever noted how similar the DNA shape is to a light wave? Ideas to consider. They could explain a lot of things, worth the pondering.

Honestly, minaras seems to have put a lot of effort into this thread. Why don't we start a new thread? Since this exchange is likely to deviate from the original posts. Seems like the polite thing.

I'll quote your above statement and begin in a new thread.

i dont think microbes are conscious are they? u need a nervous system for that. but they do respond to stimuli though. damn now I'm confused
