Dear Karl,
Thanks for the article on "Life," It certainly gives me
something to think about. . . and I will have to think
about it for a while to come up with an understanding
that I can comment intelligently about.
Things certainly do go wrong in cells and the cells [the
living items] change the way they act. I would tend to
accept the idea that I read into your article that the
cells either took in something incompatable with their
normal activity [life?] or something that they require
for continued normal activity is lacking in their
environment.
Not everything that a cell takes in that is not normal to
its usual activity is necessarily harmful but it is quite
likely to change the cell. The cell may, as a result of
taking in something unusual, find that it is able to
better cope with its environment. It might also suffer
some non-lethal change.
A favorable change in the cell might be the once upon a
time entrance of a poorly developed cell that set up
housekeeping with permission of the senior cell. In turn
the "guest" paid for its room and board by helping the
"landlord" function more efficiently. The guest became a
mitochondrion.
Far more numerous are the harmful things a living cell
might take in that disturb the cell's normal routine.
This might be something foreign to the environment or
just an excess or imbalance of something usually taken
in.
Cells can also make mistakes in the way it uses the
things it takes in [nutrients?]. The complex machinery of
a normal cell has ways of correcting some mistakes but it
can make fatal mistakes that start it on a downhill path
toward the point where the "essence" leaves [aging?]
Some cells are a part of an organ or system or individual
plant, animal or person. Such organisms provide
additional means of providing a suitable environment for
their cells and for coping with the death of some cells;
while they are, at the same time, dependent on the proper
function of some critical fraction of their composit
cells to enable the organism to function normally.
I do not have any special explanation for the "first"
living cell in the world or if the process was unique to
this planet. The mud hypothesis is as good as any if we
don't take any unprovable idea too seriously.
I look at man as an organism composed of body, mind and
spirit. I have not touched on the concept of mind here
but look upon it as the manager or director, the
entrepreneur if you will. Man is one kind of organism
that makes up the conglomerate of all living things
[biomass]. Everything we call living might well be part
of a larger system of entities. We do comprehend Earth as
a minor planet of a very minor star in one of almost an
infinite number of galaxies. What's beyond what we call
space?
There does seem to be some sort of overall organization
[I will not say of "things" here because the concept is
so much greater]. For convenience we might call this God
without having any notion of what we are talking about.
Who runs God? What's beyond God? Why not? Does the
hierarchy have to end?
Thnaks for the opportunity to rant from my soapbox. Right
now I feel the need to take care of some other activities
that my person condsiders normal.
