Study: Signs of life in ancient lava

[Tony P.]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Tiny, bacteria-like organisms made their home
in hardened lava some 3.5 billion years ago, scientists reported on
Friday.

I was just reading this article and it struck me, when i read something like
'our findings are among the oldest signs of life yet' that it jsut doesnt make
sense. is not the planet, the stars, ANYTHING IN EXISTENCE a sign of life?
how can science presume to know the answers for that which they are searching to
answer? get my drift? Like, oh look, theres something on this inanimate plant
to indicate life. but wait, the plant is life too. well that is too
complicated, find something that moves every day, not every 10,000 years. then
we'll
figure it out. aahhahahah. Ok thanks for letting me vent, love, Kyle.

Hi! I am new to this group and yours was the first post I have read.
I took great delight in your comment! Yes! It is like fish swimming
about looking for water, isn't it?

Blissings! Glenna

Hahah, wonderful illusion isnt it? cuz then the fish gets to realize that
EVERYTHING is water and it is just THAT MUCH BETTER! heheheh. Beutiful
perspective Glenna, and welcome (I'm relatively new myself but i suppose it

difference!) Love, Kyle!

What a beautiful energy! You are right, it really doesn't make a big
difference, does it?

I think it is nice to hear the "hahah's" and the "hehehe's"... I tell
my middle child, who laughs with the clarity and sweetness of...
windchimes...(?)... that it is such a beautiful demonstration of a
loving and innocent spirit... giggling is such a beautiful prayer,
isn't it?

Blissings! Glenna
