We know evolution is an emergent phenomena of the universe just like formal logic is of rational minds but this says nothing of the sheer improbability that evolution should arise nor does it explain how matter should just organize itself to form organisms. Like saying consciousness is an emergent phenomena of the brain doesn't explain how it is so.

Yes, which is sort of what makes me feel that I should be considering radical notions like simulation theory, solipsism or that our conceptions of the universe are way off due to information being obscured by being limited to a finite biological computer locked in 3 dimensions and that physical matter interacts more prominently with higher dimensions of space which give rise to unlikely events like life and the big bang. I imagined though that if we could explain how cells came to exist and knew that the probability of it being so was very large (very likely to exist), then I wouldn't be so skeptical, nor would I have warrant to be skeptical or rationally consider extremist theories like those I mentioned above.



I like that idea, it makes humans out to be important and special rather than just some low-lying bacterium-like pieces of flesh rotting on a rock ball thinking they understand what is going on and what their worth is in an otherwise absurd universe that doesn't need them at all.



I thought you were going to say "I also like the low-entropy multiverse theory, where we were always going to live in a place so finely tuned for life and that we can potentially "see" the fingerprints of alternate universes through mushrooms."
