Is the source of life equally life or some substance other than life?

Weah96:
Great, we're getting somewhere. What is this source of life that you speak of?

davien:
The process of evolution is performed by succesive generations of more successful mutations(beneficial or random) that natural processes favour.....through successful lineages more variations and other factors lead to even more diverse species....although evolution abides by some important laws or theorems...these are;

Dollo's law of irreversibility: Organisms that had inherited new traits cannot de-evolve into their basal forms....even avatisms(re-occurent ancestral features) cannot function as it once did....this is why reverse engineering is so difficult....individual mutations like colour,size,body size etc may fluctuate but the initial way such features were derived cannot be induced...
The meat of all this is that organisms that have acquired entirely new features cannot re-adapt such features to the way they were...and may actually become so specialized at its features that it cannot adapt to new changes..
We can't grow back our tails because they've been absorbed and there is nothing to build up on....
Darwins 2nd law of common ancestry; One branch of life cannot beget a fundamentally different kind(outside its ancestry)....they all belong to their irrespective genetic heirachies and taxonomic states and branch off into new ones....
This is to say a eukaryote will still branch off into a eukaryote(of varied features) that can never be classified outside of its ancestral feature....
This is why humans by taxonomy and definition are still apes(subsets actually)
ALTHOUGH IF YOU ARE REFERRING TO WHY THE ENERGY FOR SUCH A SYSTEM HAS NOT BEEN EXPENDED IT IS THE VERY REASON YOU EAT DAILY....TO PROVIDE IT WITH MORE ENERGY(BIOCHEMICAL POTENTIAL TO BE PRECISE)...
More to come.....busy at the moment...

Joshthefirst!!! I missed you, homie


oh by the way, morality has nothing to do with God

benodic:
the mystery of death lies in proper understanding of what happens when the physical body is asleep and the person is dreaming.
in dreams you still retain your consciousness. sleep is afterall a temporal death and death is a permanent sleep.

pesty100:
you really don't give a s*hit about how the child feels, the only thing you want to do is serve, and you re here talking about morality, you should be ashamed. Because your morality is to your master and not to morality

GooseBaba: This is the aspect of gra gra....

Check it...from time memorial man has made rules, lived by them and died by them... What ever is inscribed in the minds of humanity is survival. An infant knows when he/she cries it brings warmth and food...

Before the advent of your god in Nigeria. Africans already know of God/gods... Societal norms were created along man made rules and that of God for the sole survival of themselves which equates to humanity.

Your gra gra is part of mankind is in the hands of man.. The missionaries succeeded in Nigeria that's why we have the likes of you.. If ISIS succeeds in their gra gra the dynamic in that region will change and people will conform for survival reasons...

davien: joshthefirst please define what you understand the 2nd law to be and please be very clear on all the terms you use.....
By the way are you a creationist?

plaetton: Define entropy in your own words.

sonOfLucifer: Who cares about your fucking beliefs Chrestard. Your belief doesnt change a thing about fact. Men are their own gods.

plaetton: This is the general problem with you guys..
How can you say you want to have a discussion on a scientific subject matter , and the first you do is to introduce magic, superstition and myth into it.
When you do that, how exactly do you expect us to react than to mock you?

"A directed process must have director" is a silly proposition that does not belong anywhere close to a scientific argument.

GooseBaba: In some cultures, circumstances and religious beliefs these acts are not wrong..

I know a diplomat from Ethiopia who said from his tribe/clan telling lies is part of their cultural norms..

When it comes to stealing ask Wallstreet....

When it comes to raape ask those in the middle east that raape women because they dishonored their families...

Honor killings.... Etc.. At the end of the day the destiny of mankind is in the hands of man...no gra gra inside.

plaetton: "Energy can only be directed by a director" ??
Wow!
I am speechless.

I suppose that every process is also directed by a processor?
Lol.
When will evolve beyond this kindergarten level of reasoning.

sonOfLucifer: They are all necessary. Is hunger wrong?

sonOfLucifer: What is wrong? The purpose of life is survival by any means necessary. Nature has no time for the weak and feeble.

sonOfLucifer: Yes, you should. You are who you are.

plaetton: I am certainly not a physicist, and cannot figure out why I need to be one.

But to put it simply in my own little understanding, I would say since everything in existence, every atom, every particle is in motion, then everything is motion-driven to interact. Interactions bring bring temporary and sometimes permanent changes.
So, everything is in a cycle within a cycle within a cycle, .......

Evolution of the universe, the galaxies, the planets, organic life etc are just the manifestations of the different cycles within cycles of cycles.

For example, all living things on earth have a pulse that is part of and modulated our earth's own pulse. The earth's own pulse is also modulated by the pulse of our star, the Sun, which itself is part of the pulse of our galaxy system . And of course, our galaxy system resonates with the pulse of the universe.
In other words, all interactions of matter, all motions, all frequencies in the universe resonate of and with the original energy of the big bang.

So, simply trying to tie in the 2nd law of thermodynamics with with evolution cannot be explained to you in the soft and chewable and kindergarten format that you may wish.

But , do you dispute the fact that species evolve, or is your problem the fact that you don't understand how it happens?

sonOfLucifer: We are all sexual beings. There's nothing sexually im
immoral. Be creative. Embrace your carnality for that's all you are.

cococandy: Perv alert!

For 10 year olds,there's everything wrong with it.

For adults? To each their own. It doesn't matter what style of cake it is.

sonOfLucifer: Is it your opinon that evolution contradicts the 2nd law of thermodynamics? How so?
As an aside, why is a discussion on evolution in the religion section? Isn't there a science section on this forum?

mmsen: If you were serious about seeking an answer you would ask the requisite authorities.

There are scientists who have spent their entire adult lives looking into evolution and have written books on the matter - why not find some of their work instead of asking on the Nairaland Religion Forum.

Evolution is a scientific issue, it is a question of faith or a personal matter in the vein of religion it is very much a question of evidence, proof and other words that will probably frighten you.

plaetton: Bolded in red is what you posted.

And you now you are twisting and denying.


So, something , a living thing that produces neurochemicals and aid in neural processes, as well as produces substances that the body utilizes in the expression of certain genes does not , by their activities influence your mental development, and ultimately your social behavior?
Is that what you are saying?




Now compare your words in red with your words in blue.
How many contradictions can you spot?
All coming from one person, with the bonus of insults too.

plaetton: A good way to spot a dumb person is when the person throws big words around in order to make it seem that he knows what he is talking about.

Did you just say pathological conditions??

What is your definition of pathological conditions?

Let me slowly show you how really dumb , daft you dishonest you are.


1. The is what you just posted. The very same thing you have been arguing against for all this thread.
So there are cases where microbes will influence the body's biochemistry for their own benefit? REALLY?
Gosh!!
Doesn't that make every st.u.p. i. d thing you have written in this thread null and void?

2. ...and Pathological conditions
So are you, a medical student, saying to the public here on NL that microbes ONLY influence the body's biochemistry for their own benefit ( a huge admission) when the body is in pathological condition ( When the body is already stricken by diseased) ?
Unbelievable.! Just unbelievable !

You st.u.pid m.o.r.on, have you not been reading all along this very thread , have you not read in your textbooks, have you not been taught THAT many varieties of microbial flora are the causes of the pathological conditions that you are blabbing about?.

Pls Pls Pls, no more.

Joshthefirst: We talk about the bodies NATURAL microflora here, not pathogenic viral cells. I have summarized simply the relationship between the body and these bacteria. The brain relies on some of their products to sustain neural processes, and the body has taken advantage of their 'prescence' to help in the manifestation of some genes and so on. Of course, there are cases where things go wrong sometimes, resulting in abnormal mental or physical conditions, which can sometimes be treated. (Edited)
For you to say that they willingly interfere with our conscious choices, actually leading us to take actions for their benefits is idiotic and laughable on a grand scale. I cannot even believe i am having this conversation with a so called learned man. This is what happens when people try to subjectively twist scientific facts to match their beliefs.

plaetton: No one ever said or implied that
What is the definition of a pathogen?


A pathogen is a biological agent that causes disease or illness to its host.


If you had any comprehension skills , you would have understood from my second post that the body is an entire ecosystem of microbial flora.
In kindergarten language, an ecosystem means that it includes many many diverse varieties and cultures of microbes, including the good, the bad and the ugly. I also said that they exhibit social behavior that include peace and harmony, as well as conflicts and wars.
If you had understood that part, you would not be asking daft questions.


Oh my Gosh.

I am sooo tired of this senseless argument .
I have really exhausted my patience with you on this , and I am realizing that you either very daft or very dishonest, or both.

First, without reading or thinking, you fire insults at me, then later you agree to everything that I have written, things that are not simply my opinions , but are scientifically observed facts.
But rather than humble yourself, your daft ego continues to carry you on a merry-go-round.
At the end of the day , you are actually arguing with yourself, against yourself.

No wonder you fail your exams.

plaetton: Ha ha ha!

So you finally eat your own words after doing your belated homework?

Well then, I await your apology for all the insults.

TV01: I believe I have been quite clear in that regard - it's a needless construct at best. Its use is mostly ideological in nature and used to promote dysfunction and deviancy.

But I'm always game for a laugh
