re: How did a planet form that can support life but the life on it cannot live forever?

I dont think science can answer.

Lol, yes it can.

I think the only logical explanation is a higher lifeform.

That is not the only logical explanation lmao.

Then answer it.

I said I think the only logical answer.

Thats my opinion.

And I disagreed with it.

If science created life

You say the universe has no logic or goal in how it does things yet the things that derive from it use logic?

How does that make sense

The universe. If the universe created life

If it didn't want sin, it should have made us without sin. Now if it didn't know we would destroy each other or the planet, that's understandable.

It seems like you're trying to fit God into human logic. Why would God, of all things, be limited to such a finite box??

Well we can only have potential answers which we can be whittled down through experiments to give us a rough framework. From a purely physiological point of view, consciousness allows us to make predictions about the environment and the things inside it, hence why that consciousness seems innate and is difficult to replicate. Our anatomical relationship with that environment also informs that consciousness. If you didn't have opposable thumbs, your motor skills would be different and thus the relationship you would have to an environment. The reason why I invoke environment here is that it is a robust method for selection by itself. Hence why things that are highly protective to an individual's or species survival give the appearance of being 'hard-coded' and are among the most difficult things to reproduce in something like a robot, for example.

Your answer uses absolutely no logic and actually retreats quite a bit. The absence of a definitive answer is not an argument for a higher being. Even where there are definitive answers, like in evolution, I don't suspect you would either know what they are or believe them if you did.

We've gone through this. He doesnt believe in the fossil record and wants to know why we cant see the asteroid that killed off most dinosaurs if we are able to supposedly see billions of years into the past.

Think of it like this:

A river has no goals. It isn’t trying to reach the ocean. It just follows gravity and terrain. No intention, no plan.

But creatures that evolve along that river can develop brains that model cause and effect. They can notice patterns in how water flows, where fish gather, where floods happen. From those patterns, they build logic.

The river doesn’t “use logic.” It simply behaves according to physical laws. Organisms inside the river system evolve nervous systems that can represent those patterns abstractly. Logic is just a tool brains use to model regularities in the environment.

The universe doesn’t have a goal. It has regularities. Brains evolved inside those regularities. Logic is just a compressed way of describing consistent patterns in how reality behaves.
