I'm going to chime in on this thread because I want to follow it.
A few thoughts to add:
1. How much can we already know (scientifically) about what is the origin of emotion and consciousness, given the nascent nature of quantum biology. That is, a theoretical explanation of subjective experience.
2. How much of our origin are we willing to attribute to chaos and randomness, and how much to harmony. Is chaos and harmony part of the one thing we call "nature"?
3. Could ancient civilizations go through repeated cycles of illumination and fall from grace, and is our current advanced technological diffusion stage going to hit criticality?
4. If the universe was once a small, compact mass, could life have existed there, and is our biology informed by that stage?
5. Is our biology the result of repeated ascentions and declines of civilizations who have reached technology far superior to us? Is our biology supposed to guide us to a particular attractor? If yes, does it exclude a situation where, even if we are the result of the spiritual engineering of civilizations many geological aeons past, but at the same time we are informed by something closer to the creation of the universe, even a potentially uniform sea of intelligence predating dark matter and therefore baryonization?
You are welcome to be critical of my interjection. And best wishes!
