The idea that the fullness of life can be reduced to a massively complex electro-chemical reaction seem counter-intuitive and incomplete to me. The physical universe is somehow intimately entangled to other parts of reality that do not follow algorithms or reduce to equations.

This isn't a criticism as much, but I see people voice this opinion of "counter-intuitive and incomplete" yet fail to adequately explain an intuitive and complete answer that isn't just additional "Woo" to the explanation.

No shame in "I Don't Know", but it doesn't mean unexplainable.

I have plenty to present by way of explanation, but the continuous demand for proof of material and effective causes excludes inquiries based on formal or final cause. If I have to leave half the tools in the toolbox, I can't contribute anything more. That's not a complaint, just my understand of the culture of this forum and the way it constrains what may and may not be discussed.
