The simple fact that we are in the right spot peg. We ARE in the right spot for life of our kind to thrive.
the earth is the perfect distance from the sun, it is in the perfect angle on its axis to create the 4 seasons and its spinning at the perfect speed... so, in regard to its position in the universe, what aspect of earth is imperfect?
You're right. And that is why life evolved on this planet: because it is the right distance for life to have happened. However, I feel you think we were placed here just for this purpose. I say nay, we are here because we are in "the goldilocks zone".
The earth is perfect? For who? What is the percentage of this planet is habitable for humans? What little area that IS habitable for man, we have to contend with predation. We are a ball of rock, hurtling through space going millions of miles an hour, orbiting a nuclear reactor, which is orbiting a supermassive balck hole. We stand on a thin layer of rock that is covering searing hot magma. We are protected from the hell that is space by an ultra thin layer of GAS. We are but a speck in this universe. There are BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of other GALAXIES, TRILLIONS of other stars.
Earth is FAR from perfect, peg.
I dont believe we 'thrive' on imperfection. People die when they get sick...thats certainly not 'thriving'
Think outside of earth, peg. Read what I wrote. Life needs to die in order for new life to begin. Think of death as a necessity for life. Stars have to die in order for galaxies to exist. A star had to die in order for you to exist. You need the materials that are in stars. We all do.
