@ghost-of-a-duke saidThank God for the Spirituality Forum!
Actually, 'ego' kicks in when you think you have the answers you clearly do not, and speak in definitive terms.
Origin of life? Nobody knows for certain. I have far more respect for somebody who acknowledges that rather than making ludicrous truth claims. 'Maybe,' 'we believe,' are admirable terms. 'Goddidit' not so much.
@sonhouse saidHere's a short video backing up your statement.
@HandyAndy
It's not random and it isn't also necessarily survival of the fittest. Some evolutionary changes are slight regressions, not enhancements.
It's 3 minutes (2:56) of your life you can never get back, but I'm sure you will agree it's well worth the time.

@sonhouse saidSo far, we have not been here nearly as long as dinosaurs, and we may well not be here much longer. Any species which over-populates or severely degrades its habitat is doomed, and we're doing both. On an evolutionary scale of time, h.saps may well be a mutation which proves maladaptive.
With all the total random events of evolution, why are there people at all? We shouldn't even be here......
