In the year 9455, an archaeologist and some students find a computer during an excavation. Both the professor and the students watch the find with great admiration, where after the professor start to teach his students about how this computer evolved from simple chemical components.
You see, he says. For many, many (million and billions) of years ago Evolution took a pot with chemicals and started to stir with its almighty Spoon of Time. After stirring really, really long (millions and billions of years) in this primordial soup of chemicals, small pieces of metal and plastic formed. Encouraged by this success Evolution continued stirring with its great Spoon of Time. After further stirring for a long time (millions and billions of years), these metal and plastic parts turned into CPU, motherboard, graphical card, screws, cabinet, screen, keyboard, mouse and so on. Do not think that the second law of thermodynamics applies here in the pot of Evolution, because then it would not evolve into more and more complex structures over time, but instead dissolve into smaller and smaller units.
After all these individual parts had evolved, by the stirring of the almighty Spoon of Time, Evolution continued to stir until all of these parts were on the right place in the computer. At this point in the lecture, a student lifted a finger for a question. “Sir, should we not consider the possibility that these complex structures were designed and created by an intelligent being?” The professor replied, “Let’s not be foolish and naive. There is no reason to believe in an intelligent creator of the computer. Everybody knows that it evolved without purpose and intelligent interference. Moreover, who should have created this intelligent being? Be carefully now with that kind of thinking or the thought police might arrest you.”
Then the professor continued unmoved in his explanation. When all of these parts were connected, the software worked automatically. There was an operating system and user programs so the Homo sapiens of the past could use the computer in their daily activities. To finalize his long teaching the professor exclaims enthusiastically, “Isn’t the Evolution fantastic” and all the students nod their heads in silent adoration for Evolutions almighty Spoon of Time.
When they leave, the daring student who asked a question was thinking about how electricity had evolved simultaneously.
Is this little story a fairytale or empirical scientifically proof – I will let the reader be the judge of that.
