could we have come from an universal soup?

imagine an primordial soup so old as you can imagine

universal primordial soup, from planet to planet almost infinite in time.
our perception of time is not capable to imagine that time span, so i give you an little example.

we can, if you can make the time looking back.

we can see grass grow from a planted seed, we see it growing and in the end it will die.
when you've been looking extremely good you have seen the plant make seeds .
so you can see it again and again and again and again and again...


you can imagine grass growing.

now see this old little pool on planet ??? very early in the time itself.
bubbuling away.

see those stars and look at the huge amount of planets.
the soup is still boiling somewhere...

all these flavors, ingredients, all these way`s to cook, boil, bake em.


my take on it is that from this excellent mixed soup came the most simple of life that we know of.
huge and still extremely simple in its way to be allive .
let me introduce you to Humungous fungus: world's largest organism?

www.abc.net.au...


"It's one organism that began as a microscopic spore and then grew vegetatively, like a plant," she said. "If you could take away the soil and look at it, it's just one big heap of fungus with all of these filaments that go out under the surface."


we look at a crime and work back, we look at life and begin with the most far away understanding of it.
>space,,, and,,, is there life???

Some good ideas, and interesting thoughts.

I have often wondered just how life could have begun. Regardless of whether it was "created" or just "happened accidentally", it's still a mystery we may never solve. This idea alone fascinates me and keeps me looking for the answer.

I like the ideas you have given, and I'll be thinking about this for days now.

Try this: Spirit by Alan Wheelis, from a famous collection of essays on 'self and soul' edited by Douglas R. Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett.

You may find it strikes a chord.

Fungi are eukaryotes and thus far from the "most simple" forms of life. And lol even the Universe isn't trillions of years old. Life started existing on this planet some 3,7 (+/- 0.2) billion years ago.
