Things happen. It's just
the way it is. You would like to push purposes and reasons in the way
things happen. But it's just a waste of energy. Things happen, this
is just the only way.
Take life. Do you think
life is marvellous, astonishing, the product of intelligent desing?
Ok follow the rain. Raindrops fall, one by one. They are not angry
nor unhappy: they are just raindrops.
Let it rains for, says a
billion years. You seem the problem is that just sitting and watching
raining for a billion years it is a very long time. A very long time.
So long that is almost impossible for us to really conceive it, so we
just say “ a very long time”. But this is source of problem. You
don't know what is a very long time. Office job? Long time. New
Delhi-Chennai by local train. Each station. Very long time. Anyway.
This is human long time. But for things to happen “universally”,
long time is a different matter, much longer. So, let's happen life.
At first, go with
hydrogenation of carbon. How fun is that??? Well, it is. You have
very long chains of “things”.They are pretty smart, they
self-catalyst themselves, it means they started a trip and they
maintain it through feeding produced by the trip itself. Some of
these self-spinning are also mirroring themselves. In their spinning
they express the spinning itself. Sorry Mary, but this is biblical. A
spinning that run its own memory of spinning. Someone very smart
must have conceived it!
Acutally, it was the rain.
Let's things happen. Let's
have some ammonia and carbon and oxygen. Let's adunate them, with
random calls every thousands years. What happen? Nothing. Then wait.
If you wait for a long time. (A very long time) these bubbles of
stuff, sometimes, will stick together. Why??? Well, stay for a
billion years in the same position ,then tell me if you don't look
for another posture. Our aminoacids friends thought the same. They
stuffed together after a million of different combination. Like
raindrops. Molecule after molecule, they fall together. But it rained
combination after combination. One day the protein chain folded in a
way that was mirror-spinning. The rain of facts assembled that chain.
In a very long time, life was designed by rain. In a very long time.
