| Yes, I can. It's physics and evolution |

Humans, as well as every other form of life, has had hundreds of millions of years to change ("evolve") to the best way to survive and grow. That's why everything works together the way it does. It's one giant cycle, a cycle that extends throughout the whole universe. Everything effects everything else, even if it is extremely minute or takes billions of years to impact. And the living creatures adapt so they can survive.
That is much of what we call "Darwinism". There really is no scientific point to life other than to survive and reproduce. This is why I don't like many religions because they put Man at the center of everything (like many Christian factions that hate cartoons/books that show animals talking, because "only Man is important enough do that"). We are not important in any way; we are just a lifeform that has changed over the many milennia to the current form we are today, be cause this is the best way to survive. If we all died tomorrow, the planet will go on just fine. It will change, of course, but it will go on. When everyone screams out about Saving The Planet, what they really mean is Saving The Humans. Nature will do just fine without us - probabily better, actually.
Anyway, there's my sprawling, rambling post on the subject. |
