Creation Meditation
I knew there was something to interdependence and fragility. They have been on my mind for many years, and it came to me this morning. These two things eliminate multiple chances for positive mutations. What is the point of evolution emphasizing millions and billions of years? It is assumed that over such a great amount of time there would be so many chances for positive mutations that with the help of a survival instinct, voila! But interdependence and fragility of life take away all those assumed millions and billions of chances. And without those millions and billions of chances the public can reconsider the legitimacy of evolution. Interdependence has been called the circle of life. The wolf feeds on the rabbit. The rabbit feeds on the grass. The grass feeds on the wolf manure and carcass, creating of circle. A circle of not just dependence but interdependence. If the dependence was one way then evolution might still have more chances. The sun is not depending on the earth. The earth is receiving wonderful and life giving benefits from the sun without reciprocating. But the sun is very different than all forms of life on earth. We are all depending on other forms of life for our existence. What do we eat that is not organic? I'm talking about the scientific definition of organic not the 'no pesticide' definition of the word. Bread, meat, dairy, fruits, veggies and even sugars come from other forms of life on earth. A friend, Jay Granat, made a good point about the supposed first living organism in the theory of evolution. What did it eat, rocks?
Evolution seems to assume that while one form of life is evolving that all the other forms of life on earth are like the sun. (For the sake of this discussion I will call this evolving life form; life form A or LFA for short.) They are producing their life giving qualities without receiving anything from LFA, so that it can have millions and billions of chances for a positive mutation. Then after LFA's many positive mutations it eventually is able also to produce life giving qualities and reciprocate. But this is simply not so. All the other forms of life are also depending on this supposed evolving life form. LFA doesn't have all those millions and billions of chances, because the other forms of life that it is depending on to survive are also depending on LFA's life giving qualities that have not evolved yet. The balance of nature requires that different forms of life are fully functional at the same time, giving and receiving life from each other. This truth fits the creation of life that we can read about in the book of Genesis in the bible.
