if we are figuring already how to create life.. then why is it so impractical that we could have been created?

Question

doesnt mean by god... but means by some other being... maybe thats how we are blueprinted to die or evolve... because we were engineered for this... since our unicelled existance.. and

perhaps....

everything was created so as to fully cooperate with each other as it evolves and balance out... food chains... cyclic weather patterns, etc...

even if we think we are self aware we are nothing more than the preplanned units meant to inhabit earth...with a preplanned end of all life... completely autonomous... and guided by our instinct and false purposes.

who knows.. id would like to hear other peoples view on this subject... and just know what i said above is just to through out an idea... and is not my true opinion or views.

just to add... when you create something it is made from something else... i dont mention any miracles happening... like us being created from dirt... thats a physical impossibilty... i just throw out the idea that we could have been "created" by some other being... and that its not impossible because we are close to learning how to do it ourselves...

it seems we originate from a single cell that divides and grows developing into a system of cells called an organism... what gives them that ability to grow after they divide is simply from what we eat... and this is the majority of what we are...these things are already in existance... and are simply rearranged in our body...

also dna is constant and existant in all our living organisms... if we could figure out how dna works and what each piece of it does then we could redesign that blueprint so it creates the lifeforms we want.... building themselves by what we feed it...

even further down the road we may eventually be able to create fully formed organisms from scratch...robotic factories could be programmed with information to create lifeforms, routinlely... and we simply input what we want them to do and/or how they should look... the machines take care of the rest simplifying the whole process.
as long as we discover how everything works the machines can remember it.

Answer 1

Because we are not "figuring out how to create life" -- that is an assumption, and an incorrect one.

There have been times where, under very controlled circumstances, biochemists have been able to manufacture amino acids, and these amino acids are the "building blocks" of protien, which in turn can be considered "the building blocks of life" -- but any biologist, chemist, or medical researcher will tell you that we are a long, long, long way away from "creating life" through any process other than natural procreation.

Answer 2

First, if we figured out how to create life, it would only prove that it doesn't require a divine power to make it possible.

Secondly, I'm not sure we're all that close to successfully "creating" life. We are trying to replicate the conditions necessary for creating life, but it's not easy. The process could be quite complex, and it may be like figuring out how brew Coca Cola.

It will be incredibly expensive and laborious task.

That doesn't mean it didn't happen naturally. Given the time period and the seemingly infinite molecular combinations that occur in nature, anything is possible - LIFE is possible.

Answer 3

Why is it so impractical that we could have been created?

Well, in a few thousand years or so, when the genetically engineered creatures we created have established themselves here and we have long gone, they will search in the soil for proof of their creator(s)and find all the non-biodegradable junk we left behind. So they will know, beyond doubt, as they will have found their proof.
Interesting postulation though, I have to add.

*************

I may be shooting myself in the foot here, but doesn't 'Figuring already how to' mean just that? That we are 'attempting to find out how?'
I personally can't read into that as stating: 'we have', or 'are coming close to'...learn to read, people! Sheesh!!!

Answer 4

Man has NOT created life, nor is it on the thresholds of literally (just figuratively only) creating life.

Science is only using LIVING organisms.., not creating something from nothing. They can not create life from dirt.

Answer 5

they will say god created that cell, not to impressive . don't worry about God punishing you they say he is all forgiving plus he gave you that brain and you brilliant thoughts , don't worry about all those simple/close minded people
good luck Carl
ps I like your questions, keep on killing them lol

Answer 6

Just one more way to prove God did.

Have you ever wondered about the reason of our existence? Have you ever wondered why we die, and where we go after death? What will happen to us in the end? Have you ever asked yourself why God made the earth and all that is in it under man’s dominion? Why were the night and the day, and the sun and the moon created? What are we supposed to do during our lifetime? Were we created just to eat, drink, and enjoy ourselves before we die? As one poet put it:
“I do not know whence I have come.
I saw my feet walking on the road.
As they please I go and stop.
What am I doing here?
How did the road find me?
I do not know! I do not know! I do not know! ”

God has emphasized in many verses of the Qur’an that He did not create us without purpose. He said: “What! Do you think that I created you simply in jest? And that you would not be returned to Me?” (23:115) He also said: “What! Does man think that he will be left to roam at his will?” (75:36) In addition, He said: “Do people think that they will be left to say: “We believe,” and they will not be held accountable?” (29:2)
Indeed, God Has created human beings for a purpose and with a purpose: TO WORSHIP HIM ALONE (Monotheism). He said: “I have not created the Jinn and humankind except only to worship Me. I don't require provision or feeding from them. Surely Allah is the All-provider, the Possessor of all strength, the Firm.” (51:56-58) In fact, all prophets told their people to worship God alone (Monotheism) and shun worshipping His creation (Paganism). God said: “I assuredly sent among every people a messenger with the command: Worship Allah and avoid worshipping false gods.” (16:36)
Prophet Abraham, for example, believed in One God, who had no partner. Anyone who holds a different understanding of God than this has contradicted the religion of Abraham and follows falsehood. God says in the Qur’an: “Those who reject the religion of Abraham make fools of themselves.” (2:130)
Prophet Jesus was reported in the Gospels to have said: “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only’.” (Luke 4:8)
Prophet Jacob also said (in the Qur'an) to his people: “Indeed, those which you worship besides Allah are only names that you and your forefathers have established, for which Allah has sent down no authority. The command belongs only to Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him. That is the right religion, but most people do not understand.” (12:40)

Real happiness and peace can be ONLY found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. God has said in the Qur’an: (Truly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.)
(Qur’an, 13:28)

On the other hand, the one who turns away from the Qur’an will have a life of hardship in this world. God has said:
(But whoever turns away from the Qur’an, he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment.) (Qur’an, 20:124)
This may explain why some people commit suicide while they enjoy the material comfort money can buy. For example, look at Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam), formerly a famous pop singer who used to earn sometimes more than $150,000 a night. After he converted to Islam, he found true happiness and peace, which he had not found in material success.

God, the Most Compassionate, didn't leave man to go astray without an unadulterated reference. Indeed, He revealed the Qur’an and promised to preserve it as the final revelation for humankind for all times. It is the word of God which He revealed to Prophet Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him) through the Angel Gabriel. It was revealed in parts over a period of 23 years. The Quran deals with the basis of creeds, morality, history of humanity, worship, knowledge, wisdom, God-man relationship, and human relationship in all aspects. Comprehensive teaching on which, can be built sound systems of social justice, economics, politics, legislation, jurisprudence, law and international relations, are important contents of the Quran. The Prophet Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him) dictated the revelation to his companions who wrote it down during his lifetime on palm leaves, parchments, bones, flat stones, etc. In addition, the Qur'an was committed to heart by many of Prophet Muhammad's companions. One year after the death of Prophet Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him), the first Caliph (Ruler), Abu-Bakr, instructed the Prophet’s companions to collect the whole Qur’an in one volume. The third Caliph, Uthman, prepared several copies from the original text and sent them to the major centers of Islamic Civilization. From that time onwards, more than 1400 years ago, the same Qur’anic text has been in use with the exact wording, order and language (Arabic). Not a single word from its 114 chapters has been changed since it was revealed. Indeed, God promised in the Qur’an to preserve it forever. He said: “Verily, I have sent down the Qur’an, and indeed, I will guard it from corruption.” (15:9). An essential point to understand about the Qur’an is that it is a miracle both in its revelation and content.
I advise you to see the following links which show the evidence that the Holy Qur’an is a miracle.

At the time of the revelation and since, there have been those who have denied the divine and miraculous nature of the Qur’an saying that Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him) was either taught by others or that he wrote it by himself! In order to counteract this claim, God lays down a challenge to the whole of humankind saying: “ If you are in doubt concerning what I have revealed to My slave (Muhammad), then produce one chapter like it and you may call on your helpers beside Allah, if you are truthful.” (2:23) .These are from the prophecies which the Qur’an foretold as no one from the time of the Prophet (mercy and peace of God be upon him) until this day has been able to produce the like of one chapter or even a verse of the Qur’an.
