These are just some thoughts that ran into my mind after reading these 2 chapters and I was just wondering if anyone else ever thought of these things too.
If people do not understand something they will create SOMETHING to explain it. No matter how ridiculous it sounds people must have an explanation for everything.
Everything living must have one basic substance and that is water, but to live a organism needs a combination of water and air, and a myriad of other different substances. The question then becomes how do these things mix equally to create a living orgainsm?
What is water? Where did water come from? If water is present in all living organisms does it mean that it always existed? But how can something ALWAYS exist? The same can be said about air.
How did water become part of all living organisms?
A living organism cannot live without water which means that water was already present in the first living organism on the planet. How is this possible?

This sounds ridiculous, but did all living things evolve from water, and air? Could the mixture of natural substances actually transform into a living organism?
Like I said just some thoughts I was having and wondered if anyone else ever thought this as well.
I look foward to your responses.

From the beginning of time humans have made up answers to explain the unknown. The earth at one time was bombarded with comets and asteroids that had ice in them. Some theories say that is where our water comes from. I would not say that water always existed but it came to exist on our planet. Earth has went through many evolutions throughout its lifetime. I would suggest going to discovery.com. I have found many interesting theories on the subject. Sophie's World is a great book and it really does break down philosophy in a way that anyone can understand. Please continue on reading and you will find that Sophie world is not quite what she thinks.
