Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 For some ancient rishis, modern biologists and computer scientists, the same observation (coexistence of ancient and recently emerged organisms) did lead to a different interpretation: manifested life, from the tiniest particle on, obeys a combinatory rule, adding new units that are kept and continue to add when successful, whereas the "bloopers"die out. It took some time to find evidence for that hypothesis that but indeed there have been some "natural" bloopers. Yet that is an interpretation too as many species will be extinct within some 30 years due to man's way of life. Of course that could be interpreted as a failure to cope with a change in natural conditions for those species as well, making them the "natural" bloopers for the next generation of archaeologists, in case the present civilization would collapse. The moral, for one set of observations, any hobbyist can find a fitting interpretation.

I'm happy to share this clip from this inspiring human-being, that so-well expresses Interconnectivity in a most profound fasion... Love, David Dr. Michael Colgan (as stolen from 'The New Nutrition') In the middle of the morning, on the second day of Creation, in the Archean era 400 million years ago, a miraculous combination of gases produced a few simple bacteria. My late mentor, Nobel Laureate physicist, Dick Feynman, convinced me it could not have been a random event. As a scientist, the best way I can describe it is this... A hand of intelligence reached into the chaos and the precise order of life was born. At that time, the atmosphere of the Earth was 98% carbon dioxide plus a little methane and nitrogen. There was almost no oxygen. The Archean bacteria began to "breathe" the carbon dioxide and produce oxygen as a waste product, as plants still do today. They multiplied across the face of the Earth. Over countless millennia, the carbon dioxide dwindled to its present fraction of 1%, and the atmosphere grew oxygen rich to its present 21%. This new abundance of oxygen made possible human life, but it poisoned the atmosphere for the bacteria that made it. They had to seek refuge in environments that are oxygen free. Today their progeny live on in the airless slime of river mud, and in the darkest recesses of the human gut. These bacteria, that eons ago laid the ground work for the creation of man, continue to support your life by their biological role in your intestines. Without them, along with some 40 other species of bacteria, with a combined weight of your brain, you would degenerate and die. This prime example of our dependence on ancient creatures underlines the precision of the design that binds together all life upon the Earth.
