No, they don't solve problems, it's just natural selection in an environment with lots of randomness.
Life didn't even start out by solving problems, as I said: random order from chaos. Life doesn't care about solving problems, it's just collection of random matter.
Given enough random matter, you are destined to get some with odd properties in right conditions that can also spiral out of control to create something like a human.
- ItsMe000001 8y ago> No, they don't solve problems, Of course they do. Being alive presents all kinds of problems. I mean, seriously man... I don't understand the things you write, really strange stuff, I'm at a loss.
- SanityIsRare 8y agoLife didn't start out because it had the problem of not being a thing. Can it still be considered "problem-solving" when the so-called "problems" are only so in the context of animal survival and breeding from the perspective of animal consciousness? Life just randomly grows and takes on random shapes, it's not a force of problem-solving.
- jacobush 8y agoYet, here we are, solving problems.
- SanityIsRare 8y agoYou are not life, you are a human, a lifeform - product of life.
- SanityIsRare 8y agoLife would extinguish itself if it was the force of problem-solving, because that would ultimately solve all the problems. I don't know how can you create a problem-solving force from an environment where none exists. You can only create forces of chaos from such an environment.
