Right, there is only one reality...and the reality is the fact that if something is possibily necessarily true, then it is actually true.

I don't know about that.

Or this. Go in a lab and demonstrate it, and then start barking.

We've never seen life from nonlife and consciousness from unconsciousness either.

Right now, there is no physical law of nature which state that life can come from nonlife and consciousness from unconsciousness.
