1. Consciousness
Evolution could have taken millions of years to bring us to what we are now. It
is an effective and systematic process that ensures the propagation of the
best genes. But still I am at loss to explain how exactly the concept of I
evolved from this process. I can understand to some extent how our bodies
have tuned to be more efficient with the surrounding conditions. The process
of evolution of physical body makes sense but it is still magic to me as to how
atoms constitute to become living cells that develops an idea of self. A
though process that acknowledges I exists. I am a separate functioning
entity who has an identity that is more than some combination of atoms and
molecules. Such deep rooted consciousness astounds me. Trying to figure out
the cause of such consciousness makes me move towards God.
2. Love.
Unconditional love always amazes me. Many relationships express loves in
different forms. The love of a mother to her child is a strong example. You can
explain it as a way nature has evolved life to continue its survival but to
understand it to the core or to express acts of love with complete rationality
might never be possible. I associate love to be a trait of godliness. Random
events generating life that is capable of demonstrating such strong feelings is
not a satisfying answer to me. Just experiencing unconditional love showered
upon gives me a feeling that could at best be explained as mystery.
With my former questions on consciousness I argue that there is a need for a
better explanation for its origin. My arguments for emotions like love is that there
always exists a cloud of irrationality on every being.
I assume that an atheist position is that
