How could it be possible?

[Xero]

We humans are a complex machine. However, certain theories and experiments have shown how life could've appeared.

From Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Carbon, etc (Sorry I don't know the english names for all the elements lol). There is also the part of evolution, however, how is it possible that we became what we are now from molecules.

I mean, even cells are a whole world in their own, they breath, they expulse their shit from their organisms, they eat.

How could we've become this machine? Why didn't all the animals became like us, if we were all made by simple cells.

On the other part, if there is a god, why there is no fucking life outside this planet? Why are humans so different from animals?, in the way that we are destroying ourselves and our world, and animals on the other hand, they don't. (At least not directly).

Why would god make a human with free will, knowing that it will create chaos as ideas contradict themselves at times, people oppose others ideas.

Both parts, religion and science, makes this shit so contradicting...

^That's why nobody's come up with a definitive answer.

Just because all the ingredients exist to make life, it doesnt necessarily mean that they by coincidence came together to create it...Its like saying because theres all the necessary parts to make a television, eventually a television would put itself together...

Humans ARE animals...I dont know why people refuse to accept this...Humans are no different than rats other than the fact that humans have a culture to manifest themselves into...

We dont have totally free will and we dont want others to have it either...We like driving on one side of the road knowing a person on the other side isnt going to crash into us head on because he wanted to...

^^why didn't rats evolve a culture to manifest themselves into? why didn't lions become 'smart' like humans?
if they were cells that simply evolved then why the discrimination?

every organism has a cognitive potential that is innately determined...Experiential factors determine where in that range they will actually fall...If you cant see the difference in brain cc's and therefore potential between humans, rats, and lions then we shouldnt be having this argument

U telling me!!! But reasons that God has created free will, evil, temptations, etc, is because in religion, this life is a test- if we can resist evil temptations, then we are rewarded with a place in heaven when we die. If there was no evil, no chaos in the world- than it would be like living in heaven on earth- but what would the reward be when u die?

Another concept is looking at evolution- different elements bond and fuse in different ways to create different forms, i.e. humans, lions, frogs.

I read some stuff that implies our - 'human conscience is just a by-product of our Bodies functioning' - something like that, I don't remember the exact wording.

of course i can see the difference. But what actually 'innately determined' the organisms in the first place?

Experiential factors determine where in that range they will actually fall

your leaving a lot to chance here.

Well what determins how life evolves is what it needs to survive. When humans came out, we were weak ass shit... pretty much anything could use us for food. But it was the first few dudes that picked up a stone to throw at predators or a stick to smash 'em with who were able to reproduce. Their kids had the same tendencies towards using tools, had larger brains, and so lived on to reproduce again, until eventually it was only the humans (well neandrothols or whatever stage we were at back then) who used tools that survived to reproduce and made up the population. The lions at the time were doing fine, and still are, so there is no need for them to branch out.
