What created the first cell on Earth? God or Big Bang?

All roads lead to one.

Every culture has a different name for it.

God, Allah, Vishnu, Muhammed,

The plain fact is that something created the first living organism.

How can you disagree? Definitely way before Adam and Eve.

The tree that grew before them, means that life/growth existed before them.

Back to biology. Back to basics. The first cell, the first bacteria,the first organism, the first thing that could evolve, how did it exist? What created it??

If you believe in "Big Bang"....what created the things that create the "bang". What made the planets.

In my opinion..... It is so unimaginable.

So beyond God or any other deity.

Something, created space. Planets. Oxygen for human life.

Even if you believe in God and Adam and Eve and Jesus.... What created this planet. God, ok. Now what created all the others? And why?

In essence.....

What created the first cell on Earth?

Believing in a Creator is the easy way out. Just because science cannot (yet) explain the origins of life does not mean you give up and accept the word of a religious text (with no evidence whatsoever).

@SW-User The problem with the universe is that it is simply too large to know what is going on in it. Distance equals time. And consider how much humanity has changed in just the past couple of hundred years.

As an example, it would take about 73,000 years for the Voyager space craft to travel to Proxima Centauri, the nearest star. Double that for a return trip. Can you even imagine the Earth in another 146,000 years?

@Diotrephes No, but what does that have to do with whether there is a Creator or not?

@SW-User Which Creator are you thinking about? And how could there be a Creator unless something created it.

SW-User

@Diotrephes Exactly. It's a paradox.

@SW-User Actually, everything came from Nothing through an evolutionary process. The problem is that we simply don't know what Nothing is and what its properties are. But at some stage Nothing creates quantum foam and strings that produce elemental particles.

Over time the elemental particles evolve into hydrogen atoms which go on to clump together and form stars. The stars produce a variety of new and heavier elements. At some point the star explodes and the residue clumps together to form planets. If the conditions are right the planets will create even more elements.

Over time the elements might form organic chemical compounds that produce replicating life forms. Eventually, the basic life form continues to eveolve into newer versions and one day you appear and wonder where everything came from.

The answer is that it all came from Nothing.

Edit: you brush is off as nothing. Should we not keep investigating?

Have we not been here thousands of years.

and we know nothing.

OG response: does not one person ask what is the BASE of creation? Not two planets hit together and created such and such. What was the FIRST? What created the first spark, organism to grow, gravity, what MADE It???

@SW-User unfortunately many people think that is what a believer believes

@HellsBelle Celestial hydrogen atoms are the basis for gravity. They clump together and form large balls that go nuclear and create stars. As they cook they form new and heavier elements and when the star expolodes some of that material clumps together and form planets. Eventually, you are created.

@Diotrephes what created the celestial hydrogen atoms?

Diotrephes · 70-79, M

@HellsBelle Quantum foam and strings create elemental articles which evolve into cosmic hygrogen atoms. The hydrogen atoms clump together and eventually go nuclear as a star, which then creates new and heavier elements.

Take some time and watch this video. Move the purple dot in the bar all the way to the left to startand it will take you from the simple to the complex =

@Diotrephes metaphysics 🤣

@Diotrephes what created the quantum foam and strings?

The problem is that we don't know what the properties of [b][i]Nothing[/i][/b] are since in our reality there is always [b][i]Something[/i][/b]. But, we do know that cosmic creation is an on-going process.

What created the God character? People's superstitious imaginations. The problem is that no God is more credible than any of the other more than 33,000,000 deities humans have worshiped over the ages. The biblical Gods were simply men. Some were crazier than other others but they were all insane from incestous inbreeding. In ancient times anyone could become a God, which is just a title, indicating that the person held your life in his hands. Our national leaders would have been considered Gods in ancient times.
