Sorry, babies don;t come from hambnurgers. Don;t take my word for it, though. Sit a hamburger on the table and watch it...wait for a baby to come out. Report your findings
Quote:I really don't think you understand this any better than I do, from what I can see. And yeah, my parents made me, okay.Which answers the question of why you're a human being as opposed to a rock, or a bat, or what-have-you.
Quote:But there was a lot of other matter in the universe that didn't happen to become my parents, it just became inanimate objects.Why would that be relevant to you, since we've established that you came from your parents...and they were, in fact, human beings?
Quote:I wonder all the time why I came into existence and am not just an unconscious part of the other vast majority of matter that makes up the cosmos.If things were different things would be different. In your case, the conditions from which you arose lead, inexorably, to your being a human being. Had your parents been a seal...you'd be a seal.
