"These amino acids form nucleotides, which create DNA and RNA."
Um...not quite. Nucleotides from RNA/DNA, and specific sequences of nucleotides encode various amino acids. In turn, those strands are then...um...interpreted (for lack of a better term) by specific organelles (I don't remember which ones) to assemble the amino acids into proteins.
Our physical existence is separate from our essence, what makes you, You and me, Me, is what some call the spirit, the soul. Is there an existential greater system we’re all a part of ?
This universe is a cradle for low level sapience, Mike. The electric soup from which we slosh and splash, that's the meta junk that fuels all existence, including the higher spheres. Let us say we are the bargain blue plate special of the barrel bottom. At this phase. Next phase, it's a bit different.
It’s a denser, more actualized sort of carnival, replete with rehabbed opium dens, library cabanas, and 72 decidedly nonvirginal sirens ready to take us tripod monkeys to task for our patriarchal transgressions. ;)
This is great. The questions you ask are frequently answered by the faithful with a "God of the gaps" argument, which is a logical fallacy. For example, because we don't yet fully understand abiogenesis, religious adherents, in particular Intelligent Design advocates, use the incredibly complex makeup and partially unexplained origins of life to insist that there can be no other cause but a deity. But then there's this... https://youtu.be/ywg1uWx_GOE?si=Clm5vnX5T55szq8b
Love it 👏 Your musings are a case in point of why science is the ultimate whodunnit. Was it the vents in the ocean with the chemical cocktail? The shifty asteroids dumping organic compounds? The lightning bolt in the soup with the spark? One day we’ll crack the case…unless the Universe keeps its lips sealed.

Oh yeah? Well, if you're so smart, how come I didn't know this? (Because I'm dumb)
Now now, I'm not that smart...just good at the ol' book learnin'...

Loved tge squirrel porn header!
“And somehow, this little soup made the entire Fast and Furious series.”
I cackled.

Love the posts for the questions asked!
I loved this. The whole thing. Even the squirrel porn. Especially the French onion soup porn.
An enjoyable diversionary read. Thanks.
I thoroughly enjoyed your ponderings! Amino acids, squirrel sex … who knew what was in your hippocampus this morning (oops, wrong part of the brain!).
Life is its own reward... and punishment.
