Today’s Episode: The “Big Bang”, the oceans and more than 10 million species of lives affected by corruption
Scientists estimate that there are more than 10 million different species of life on Planet Earth.
Thinking that they all derive from the same “trunk” may have been one of the reasons that led Charles Robert Darwin, the systematizer of evolutionism, to dub the creator deity the “Supreme Creator of Bacteria”.
As we said in previous articles, evolutionism is a slow process. Then, when we reach 3.8 billion years before humans appeared, in the oceans a real revolution begins from four chemical elements that will become the foundations of the appearance and evolution of the species: hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen.
These gases created by the constant stellar explosions unite to create the ‘DNA’ of every species that swims, walks, crawls, or flies on Planet Earth, from its appearance to its extinction or survival and evolution.
It is from that moment on that life begins to pop up in the oceans. Each creature takes its share of the ‘DNA’ that the “Big Bang” generated and follows its existential course. Each species is constituted with its differences, multiple and original. NOTHING IS FORMED BASED ON EQUALITY because the power of creative energy bets on differences.
Here again, I draw attention to a parallel between Creationist and Evolutionary Theory. At first, it is impossible for any believer to accept that God was wrong to create the human being with so many imperfections, just as scientists and researchers have long been amazed by the many flaws present in the spiral of human ‘DNA’ and other species. Merciless diseases, disorders, syndromes, and other ailments are already scientifically cataloged as failures in the information that constitutes us.
Latest in the timeline I’ve been tracing, meaning down to 2.5 billion years before we humans came along, bacteria figure out how to use the Sun’s energy.
By doing this, they feed and learn to process oxygen as the source of all life we know today.
These same bacteria now transform sunlight into oxygen and use it to corrode the iron in the oceans. Have you ever seen how the salty air corrodes iron? So it is! The principle is the same.
This is how, according to science, over millions of years these residues left over from the feeding process of bacteria formed the solid part of Planet Earth, similar to the solid residues that monkeys throw on the ground when they feed on top of trees. That’s how the solid residues resulting from the process of feeding bacteria over millions of years piled up to form the solid portion we call earth, its islands, and continents.
Note that Nature itself tries to separate the dry portion from the liquid portion, and everything is done in full harmony with the gaseous environment created in the “Big Bang”. Even today, islands disappear and reappear when Nature floods in its merciless course and then dries up certain areas of the globe.
The ‘tsunamis’ of 2004 and 2011, for example, are recent samples, as they geographically reconfigured parts of Asia. Others that will take place in the future will continue to demonstrate that in this man vs. Nature struggle, this one can do more. How many other ‘tsunamis’ of catastrophic results could there have been in the past without us knowing?
If you stop to reflect, you will notice that the physical and chemical elements such as iron, steel, carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, etc., that made us and keep us alive are the same ones that fuel our modern industry, that gave life to the industrial revolution and that today they make up the alloys that are present in our fabrics for clothing, cars, toys, construction materials, computers and everything around us.
As bacteria fed on sufficient amounts of iron from the seabeds and rocks and depleted enough metal to corrode, the excess oxygen that remained escaped into the atmosphere surrounding the planet, converting it into a large generating uterus of countless Life forms.
We can say without exaggeration that oxygen and hydrogen, especially in the water version, represent the before and after of life. With these gases, together and apart, evolution takes a giant leap.
Life jumps from the seas, that is, from the aquatic portion to the dry portion. The first beings learn to breathe out of the seas and become more and more constant in the dry part, in addition to developing characteristics for survival in this new challenging environment.
Aquatic animals evolve to have feet and paws and are on their way to developing hands with fingers and claws separated from each other, which will allow for another giant leap in evolution, as fingers and claws are exceptional tools for holding things, carving tools, and use them for your own benefit. Feet and hands can be ugly or beautiful according to the eyes of each person, but putting aside the aesthetic side, they are absolutely useful and necessary for the evolution we have been achieving.
Astrophysicists, paleontologists, geologists, astronomers such as Nicole Waguespack, Peter Ward, Russell Shapiro, Alex Filippenko and other exceptional scientists claim that 550 million years before humans appeared, oxygen levels reached 13% on Planet Earth. It was a percentage that created good conditions for the preservation of existing species and for the evolution that gives rise to new species.
According to wildlife biologist Jonathan Cohen, from the “State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry”, in the Cambrian period, life exists in abundance and continues to multiply throughout the planet.
Vertebrate fishes appear that are also our ancestors because, from them, we receive the structure of the bone column that we have. The other parts of these bony fish have progressively evolved to look like us, including mouths with jaws, teeth, and the spine. Bacteria and bony fish are, therefore, well before Darwin singled out primates on their famous evolutionary scale.
Humans are the result of this slow evolution that we have been reporting. The human being is the species that best adapted to adversity, because with its big brain compared to other species, it learned to weave complex neuronal relationships, that is, to use reasoning and free will to make decisions.
Every decision-making process requires, at a minimum, planning, and execution, that is, reasoning ability. In the history of 13.7 billion years that make up the symphony of the existence of human beings on planet Earth, the human brain with its rational capacity has made us the most intelligent and dominant species. It causes me profound strangeness when I see that we are once again sinking into the darkness of ignorance.
From time to time human beings come to treat fools as wise, come to despise reading, writing, and interpreting, and value idiots and imbeciles as leaders to be followed. It was like that, for example, in the Middle Ages, until a Renaissance, an Enlightenment was necessary.
We live in an eternal march of advances and setbacks, and these destroy with astonishing speed what decades and centuries require for a simple advance and as the world is politically configured so that things are like that, it remains for the nonconforming to adapt or remain silent.
For some thinkers, like Benjamin Franklin, “whoever fails to plan, plans to fail.” Our fully functioning brain is an exceptional gift that Nature gives us, not only to exist but to remain the dominant species. Not learning or allowing yourself to be taught how to use it is putting yourself in the right position to be mastered. From there to becoming manipulated, expropriated, and headed is a minimal step.
Knowing how to think has brought us to the stage we are in and made us a dominant species. Was it while meditating on evolution that the French Cartesian philosopher René Descartes was inspired to say “I think, therefore I am”?
Maybe! Although we cannot ignore that more than two thousand years before him, Greek philosophers such as Thales of Miletus, and a short time after this Aristotle, were already considering this possibility. For Aristotle, for example, the reasoning is the greatest gift that human beings have received. What are we doing with this treasure that Nature gave us for free?
It is, indisputably, the reasoning that projects us to the superior dimension among all species. In this regard, the power of FREE WILL must be exalted, that is, the ability to choose between right and wrong, fair and unfair, legal and illegal, honest and dishonest, without determinism that insists that useless specimens of the species are like that because of the environment, the parents, the neighbor or the dog who, with his sideways look, made him suffer.
Failures in ‘DNA’ alter physical aspects and destroy neuronal connections. Some make their victims absent from reality. These absentees must be controlled without imposing ethical values on them, but the least we have to do with the rational as a dominant species is to demand that they fight the “war of all against all” following the rules of the game. So I ask:
1 – According to the Creationist Theory, has the creator deity implanted in our spirit the evil of corruption, or is this the result of learning?
2 – According to the Evolutionist Theory and its Creative Nature (Big Bang), is the evil of corruption in the spiral of our ‘DNA’ or is it a learning experience?
If corruption is a learning experience, then it is also cultural!
If it is cultural, can it be modified from the free will that through reasoning leads us to decide to be ethical or unethical?
If the answers to the above questions go in the direction of our individual responsibility, how can we explain that governors, mayors, councilors, divert to themselves in pandemic money and public income that should be used in public health, for example, for the purchase of vent devices? What is the soul or the ‘DNA’ of these aberrations that imagine themselves human beings?
And, even more difficult, how to explain that voters continue slapping each other physically and psychologically to defend tooth and nail candidates and parties from the left, right, and center, which harm them so much, that daily withholds and destroy the minimum of social dignity and economical? Tell me how is it possible?
