Three Unanswered Questions: Origin Of Matter, Life And Consciousness
No one truly understands why a specific effect arises from a given cause. This is the case for all phenomena. For instance, we don’t know why fire burns or ice cools. We only recognize the effect and its connection to the cause. If ice were to burn and fire were to cool, we would simply accept them as such. What we comprehend is the process, but we never grasp the true nature of the effect that emerges through it. Consciousness and life are not intrinsic to matter, yet they seem to arise from it, this is unexplainable.
