The Primordial Soup

Ah!! here we go again.....another discussion about the same old topic, a very heady one and not to mention about the people who hold this soup with great disdain. Hold the soup in disdain? Well what kind of soup is this and who are the other set of people who like the soup? To know these we got to know what this soup actually is.......nah..it is no dish to get onto a menu....but the recipe has all got to do with an attempt at explaining how life came to earth and how it developed into what we see today.
There has always been one traditional way of looking at explaining how life came to earth, simply say, "God made it". It held sway and even today to a large extent until Charles Darwin shook it from the roots. He proposed for the first time that life on earth evolved and is continuing to evolve on it's own and that nobody made it with their hands and that life was not created in a giffy and that it is not the whim of God who was sitting bored, up in the heavens. This theory also challenged the existence of God itself. I've met a lot if people on either sideof the line, holding to their theories dearly and going to great lengths to show that the other is faulty. I've always thought of what the actuality behind all this could be.
The theory of evolution says that life was planted as organic substances into the earth's oceans by probably a comet or a meteor that crashed in. It is said that life most probably evolved from the oceans and from the substances that grouped or were planted into them, and so stuck the phrase "The Primordial Soup". I've seen that there is a lot of bickering about origins of life on our planet. There are people who terribly disagree with the idea of evolution and there are a equally good number of people who don't like the idea of "God has made" everything.
Here is my take on the subject......I believe that God made everything around and I also believe that life is evolving and has evolved into he current state just as Darwin proposed.
First, this is the face of coin I'd like to show to those who believe God made everything.......yes of course God made everything, but the fact is that He never told anyone how he made it, He is making an attempt at teaching it now and we are just closing our ears to it. In all the world's religious books I've never come across any passage where God described an algorithm to how life and everything else came into being. All the stories we see are just figments of our imagination and attempts by our ancestors to explain things, how can we possibly rely on them? All the world's religious books are aimed at one thing......teaching men how to get close to God....they are never attempts at explaining creation to mankind. Just look at this example.....how do you think, a jumbled set of numbers can be sorted? The brain uses a different approach each time we try to sort a set of numbers ,ah!! and I remember what pain in the neck learning computer algorithms about sorting numbers is. The algorithms to sorting numbers are so complex, a layman will find it very difficult to understand. Even today, there are very few people who can understand anything about genetics.......so how in God's name can we understand the algorithm to the creation of the universe if it were explained to us?? Definitely not, even the best minds in the world will find this a stumbling block. I believe God is slowly making mankind understand how He made things and we are just closing our eyes to it. Look around, we see new microbes coming up all the time, striking examples are AIDS virus and the new drug resistant TB. There is evolution happening before our eyes and how can we deny that something like this doesn't exist at all?
And here is the face of the coin for those who don't believe God exists....... http://maworldmamuse.blogspot.com/2008/11/god.html
This discussion also is a very complex one. It is a fact that the world we see is not random and chance or not, people have communicated with an invisible force since mankind existed. We just call this harmonizing force, God. For all the knowledge we've accumulated since Renaissance, we've just seen a few more grains of sand better and how can we say we understand every grain of sand in this great desert we see ? Something to be really thought of........in essence "The Primordial Soup" is a savory dish of somebody's incalculable ingenuity, spanning all time. The more you think about it the more you'll only get closer to knowing the dish better and the one who made it!!
