The voice of Christianity you hear is most assuredly not the way most of us work.

A moment for abiogenesis that some may not be aware of.

It seems to take an enormous amount of time - and here's the thing - I mean enormous - Mars may have had similar conditions to Earth for awhile, and all our exploring hasn't yet found definitive proof of life ever having existed there even tho there was and is water - It wasn't cooking for long enough.

The period of time on Earth when the conditions for life were possible but life didn't yet exist is nearly 1.75 billion years. It took longer to evolve life from lifelessness than it did to go from unicellular to the moon - by almost a factor of 2.

Life in the earliest stage must be so fragile, delicate, so utterly ready to fail, but still the different types of protocellular structures seek, combine, consume and excrete. slowly but surely solving problems that face them. But it took them nearly 2 BILLION years to be able to live and be a stable life-form - clearly not the fastest process.

But then it explodes, and life spreads its wings and never looks back. The thing is we still carry the solutions developed in that primordial sea. Our bodies use the exact same stochastic methodologies to attack foreigners as bacteria do. There was once a mighty competition on Earth - between many different ways of solving two problems. DNA and symbiosis of cellular automata won. There nay be other solutions, who knows.

By Comparison it's only been 65 million since the dinosaurs, and only 20,000 since the last mini ice age...
