And in the beginning

Subject: And in the beginning.

One of the fascinating things about the human mind is it's capacity to think and devise complicated assumptions. I have just been listening to a program on the origins of life on earth and how the complex process started.
According to the science and there are many sciences which form the study of life. The geologist and the bacterial scientist, the chemist and the physical theorist who posits the earliest dates regarding the formation of earth. Each are piecing together a rough set of assumptions, followed by the evidence, founded in experimentation in trying to replicate the conditions on earth 3.7 billions of years ago. The formation of the earth began 4.1 billions of years ago as a fluid amalgam of matter brought together by the influence of gravity and the matter which made up the universe. No life was possible at that stage and only as cooling and solidification occurred did the conditions for the elementary chemistry, the building blocks for life, emerge.
The question, the chicken and edge question was why and how did these elementary chemical constituents they weren't compounds yet, how did they trigger the impulses for life to begin.

Life at its most fundamental is a protein/DNA compound which replicates but the catalyst the protein DNA were not in the form to produce early life. It is suggested that RNA which is part of the molecular structure, and the basis of how we propagate, became the first interactive building block linked with protein to form what we call life. The signature for these chemical events are seen in rocks dated 3.7 billion years old and represent the earliest and most fundamental starter kit for what we witness around us today.

Given that we are hedonistic, so imbued with our own importance, just over 2000 years ago, mankind devised a story setting himself in the middle of a heavenly relationship, a relationship exclusive and beneficial to himself. Events in the world would revolve around him and that heaven a paradise after death beckons if we fulfil the scripture.
All this necessarily ignores the findings of science, the slow unearthing of our irrelevance which, if not yet definitive is at least is a million miles away from Adam and Eve.
