Fascinating. And of all life on Earth, how did human consciousness arise?
We're basically virtual machines/entities/minds stuck inside biological bodies, and the majority of us are at odds with nature and every other living organism on Earth.
I guess I'm more interested in how that happened than how life started, both seem equally incomprehensible to me, though.
