Introduction: Life Forms
'
During my time at school, my study of philosophy (in the old sense
which includes the study of music as part of philosophic education)
was limited to playing the violin and the piano, and studying old
Greek and Latin at college, and was further
limited to a 'Time-Life' book from the library, that explained,
that
"Life consists of molecules in the sea that have been hit,
by accident, by lightning,
"to combine into simple proteins which, by chance, combined
into living cells which,
"by an endless succession of chance occurrences, finally
combined into human bodies."
'
The book had a painted picture of a sea, with lightning flashing
above it. And that picture 'proved the matter conclusively.'
One teacher at college knew it wasn't true, but he did not
dare to say anything when I mentioned that "proof:"
'
Simple 'accidental' proteins would 'accidentally'
- without any spiritual or Life Energetic cause
or control -
combine into extremely complicated, pulsating,
living, moving cells.
'
Again without any spiritual cause or Life Energy
- 'by accident' -
these went through such an incredibly complex process
as cell-division.
'
And they kept on 'accidentally' dividing and combining,
till, by the laws of chance,
there 'accidentally' appeared the most complex and
organized thing you can imagine:
An ape-like body.
