The hmolscience view of the chemical synthesis of humans from hydrogen atom precursors, according to which—in the defunct theory of life view of things—humans are 26-element molecules that have been synthesized or metamorphosized over time, in a transformation process that began, according to big bang theory, 13.7 billion years ago, and, once the the sun ignited, some 4.5 billion years ago (see: elective affinities problem). |
“A hydrogen molecule is the thing which reacts. Homo sapiens and other particular species are the things which evolve. Such individuals differ from classes by having particular origins in time and space. They may disappear or change into other things.”
“Hydrogen is a light, odorless gas, which, given enough time, turns into people.”— Edward Harrison (c.1990) Publication (Ѻ); cited (Ѻ) by John Wiley (1995) in “Phenomena, Comments and Notes” (Ѻ); cited (Ѻ) by David Christian (2004) in: Maps of Time
“Why should a group of simple, stable compounds of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N), 'struggle' for billions of years to organize themselves into a professor of chemistry? What's the motive?”– Robert Pirsig (1991), Lila: an Inquiry into Morals
