Your lack of imagination is your defeat

Rocks don't, as far as we can tell "wake up" to be anything at all.  There have been rocks for -billions- of years...if what you've just said is true we should see some rock somewhere waking up as a tree or a dog or whatever just about every second of every day.  We don't.  Instead, we see them slowly ground away to clay without a single one of them ever exhibiting so much as a -hint- of the behavior you've proposed in all of the time we've been looking at rocks...everywhere we've been looking at rocks.  Here, again, there's no room for you to have been mistaken...you're not thinking or communicating properly.  

I'm not sure where free will and children fit into anything else you said.

This is just one of many opportunities you've been given to demonstrate the accuracy of whatever it is you believe....if you refuse to do so, or simply cannot, it's pointless to bitch and moan about others not affording your beliefs an ounce of credibility.


Gee, now I will have to engage in private tuition and getting no paid for it.  Banging Head On Desk

Yeah, this time is my head unfortunately.

Look Ritmo.
Have you ever heard of uranium and other radioactive material?
Have you ever wonder why some certain matter are able to emit radiations?
Why do you think they do?
Why the energy want to escape from the matter?

This is well understood physics and has nothing to do with consciousness.

Quote:So what makes the protons stay together in an atom?

A force called the strong force opposes and overcomes the force of repulsion between the protons and holds the nucleus together. The net energy associated with the balance of the strong force and the force of repulsion is called the binding energy. The electrons are kept in orbit around the nucleus because there is an electromagnetic field of attraction between the positive charge of the protons and the negative charge of the electrons.

Does the nucleus of an atom ever lose particles?

In some atoms, the binding energy is great enough to hold the nucleus together. The nucleus of this kind of atom is said to be stable. In some atoms the binding energy is not strong enough to hold the nucleus together, and the nuclei of these atoms are said to be unstable. Unstable atoms will lose neutrons and protons as they attempt to become stable.

Unstable atoms lose energy and particles on their way to becoming stable.  Nothing to do with consciousness.

Your lack of high school physics is your defeat.
