About us
Science Blog was started in August 2002. It lives, breathes and eats press releases from research organizations around the globe. Most of what you read here are press releases from the outfits named in the stories themselves. Got a news story you think belongs here? Let's talk. The other half of the equation is blog posts from readers like you. So if you have an interest in science, please register and join others like you in an ongoing, vibrant dialog about what makes the world tick. Meantime, please take a minute to read our Privacy Policy and Site Disclaimer.Recommended

To Friend, you wrote: "Now THIS is important: they themselves have been created by other beings (answer to Gkm by the way). They have NOT evolved by evolution or such. This is an eternal cylce in the infinite universe, where there is no beginning to and no end, like buddhist scriptures say for example. Being limited themselves (birth, death), humans tend to ask questions that contain limits, which is natural:)"
I have no reason to believe this, which can never be scientifically proved. I believe in evolution because its practicality, and because its efficiency has been supported theoreically and by "simulated evolution" to solve extremely dificult technical problems. So, there is no reason to distrust its capabiliy because of its randomness. The entropy law is one of the cornerstones of creativity and imagination.
The possible alternative theory of evolution called gaussian adaptation also supports the peace on earth, Rael has no monopoly. But this may be another blog.
I don't demand you to look at such a simulation, but if you do, you may see what I mean.
