start at the beginning when there was nothing, but one cannot do that for no one can ever be sure that there was a beginning or nothingness. Things get even more incomprehensible as the lines grow more distant. Furthermore, at one point the two lines become lost and completely out of touch with anything where they disappear, in a way no longer exist. Things are different when it comes to parallels. In the case of the universe, it has been established in this discussion that the continuous creation has come to be: there was never a beginning nor will there be an end. What we always had was a creation that endlessly keeps creating a different creation. There is no total death nor is there a complete elimination. But even when one is no longer interested in knowing the beginning, thinking in angular terms will get you nowhere for the lines grow so far apart that it would be impossible to keep them in the same zone. Thinking in parallel terms is much different. Again pretend to be one line and the subject is the other line. No matter how great the lines, the distance separating them is to remain constant. However great the lines, they will always constitute a small segment of two infinite parallels. The subjects may grow extremely complex, yet with parallels, you will always be able to have an anchor, an image or a point of reference, if you will. This is the reality of our condition as human beings. No matter how knowledgeable and advanced we may be, we will never know how things had started nor will we ever know how the future is going to unfold. We are only able to relate to a segment of the line, for we are not able to venture beyond some sort of an anchor or a point of reference. An image can only reflect what is real, like it or not, this is as far as our creative thinking can take us. Pasteur may have been a great genius but it was a simple observation which he used as a point of reference which in turn led him to the introduction of vaccine. His work was focused on treating and curing the sick not on the reasons or the origin of viruses. The Wright brothers spent weeks observing birds flying before they nailed down their successful design for a flying machine. Comparing, copying and repeating are the stepping stones one uses to learn and think. In a way they are all tactics we use to enable us to see things in parallels.
Based on these observations, one would be justified in stating that no one has or will ever have a definitive answer on how life had begun. All we have established so far is that everything that exists has to be in a state of continuous creation. What is being recreated has nothing to do with any planning or purpose. This goes for all elements. On earth: water, soil, light and air happened to come together. We shall discuss how this took place later on, for the time being we will satisfy ourselves by using this mix to help us understand how the interaction of chemical elements and substances can cause them to create something that can duplicate on its own. Observing how fungi, algae and moss manage to grow is a good example of how biology can be the product of interacting chemicals. Of course, on earth, one can never be certain that these elements could be completely free of other ingredients or seeds. However, according to biologists, it is possible for elements on their own to create life. Basically, once amino acids are formed, protein and life become the natural emerging by-products. In principle, one may be compelled to believe that pure chemistry was alone responsible for primordial life. After all, our own bodies discharge chemicals that are very similar to the ones responsible for the genesis of life. According to experiments conducted by many scientists, ammonia (NH3), methane(CH4), water vapor(H2O), and hydrogen(H2) mixed together along with an electrical charge result in the creation of amino acids and some biological compounds, the process is called chemosynthesis. Personally, I find this theory very credible for a simple reason: through our bodily function we discharge the same chemicals responsible for the creation of life. Urine is ammonia and water, the gas passed through flatulence is methane, heat must be connected to hydrogen, and our body generates electricity on its own. Still, despite all what has been said, one can never establish that earth is the origin of life as we know it or otherwise - let alone the origin of our species. Of course, this is not to say that life needed a creator of some sort to come to be. In essence, all I am saying is that since earth was never completely free of foreign objects, life on earth could very well be of an alien origin; and based on this observation, life would predate earth. Furthermore, one may even argue that life has been around for as long as the universe itself. It may not have looked the same as the life we know on earth but it was there. What I am trying to say is that one cannot isolate earth from the rest of the universe. Anything on earth must have started on a cosmic scale. Ingredients needed to establish life could have been several cosmic systems that came together to give birth to a cosmic size pot of soup. For instance a whole cosmic system could have been made up of water; another one could have been composed of amino acid...and so forth. In fact, a collision of a planet made exclusively of ice could be the reason earth has so much water; (actually, water only amounts to a tiny fraction of the earth mass, 1.52% to be exact, whereas the oceans cover over 70% of its surface.) This is not hard to prove. Our own solar system contains planets that are completely made of one type of material. In fact, these tiny planets or meteors may still be responsible for many freak storms that occur on occasion in various part of the globe. Other planets are exclusively made of one element, for instance, Venus is a ball of iron, and Jupiter is a globe composed of hydrogen. It takes the combined collisions of several cosmic bodies to form a planet like ours. Some geologists are convinced that most of the metals found on earth have an alien origin. Having said that, one may also be allowed to imagine other scenarios for the genesis of life on earth. One of them would be to credit an intelligent species with the whole process. Suppose that long ago, long before bacteria appeared on earth or evolved, an intelligent species was able to land on earth. In that case, even if that particular species failed to survive, its own bacteria contaminated remains would have introduced life to earth. This possibility is far-fetched particularly when it is impossible to find any evidence to support the occurrence of such an event. Nonetheless, it cannot be ruled out. Interestingly, in this case, the future may be the key to the past. In that, future generations who will be able to survive for a very long time may be able to find the keys which would unlock the secrets of the past.
At this point, one might ask why life was created in the first place. The answer is simple: for the same reason every force in the universe was created. This is how the matter stays alive; this is why everything that exists is destined to remain in a state of continuous creation - including our own race. Simply put, at one point in time, a force must have altered certain molecules whereby they became biological cells capable of self-replicating and staying alive by feeding on other chemicals and thus life was begun. We have seen how fusion can bind matter into atoms, how atoms join different ones to form molecules which in turn create elements and substances. For example, water is an element that is composed of hydrogen and oxygen, air is oxygen that is mixed with nitrogen, salt is chlorine and sodium and so on. For anyone of us, the sight of the sea is captivating. Just the sheer size is suggestive of an awesome power. However, unlike the forces resulting from negative and positive charges in massive particles, unlike extreme heat, that cause atoms to be created; the force of water is no longer working or no longer able to create new matters. Still, based on the theory of continuous creation which stipulates that things must stay in motion, transmute, fuse or divide, water has no choice but to comply with the law of continuous creation. If water and soil are not able to fuse or transmute as elements, they found a way to transform themselves into living things; in other word, in this instance, the continuous creation which was responsible for the creation of the universe has decided to draw a new parallel universe of itself. At one point, aided by the right organic nutrients such as calcium, phosphate and nitrogen, algae or other form of moss was produced. Even a humble grocer as myself is aware of the role phosphate can play in creating algae. (At one time phosphate was used in great portions in detergent - it is now banned as a result of many scientific blind studies that proved the connection between this substance and the uncontrollable propagation of algae on the shores of lakes and seas). This may not seem to be the origin of such a complex species as ours, but when one considers how biological evolution works; it becomes very clear and logical. This is only one scenario of how life could have begun. Different elements could have also produced bacteria. Other unknown substances could also have been part of the primordial mix. The point is that primordial life is somehow able to emerge from the interaction of different substances. In fact, many scientists believe that the early earth had an atmosphere made of methane and carbon dioxide, which along with the right radiation from the sun, happen to form the initial components of life on earth. Interestingly, an experiment conducted by Melissa Trainer (not sure of the name), a scientist, from the university of Colorado, gave
