From: Chuck Gierhart When you ask this question about a blade of grass, the
Pacific Ocean or a rock, no answer is possible. You can describe how these
things interact with their environment or the benefit we derive from them
but thatâ?Ts not the same as a purpose. To ask what purpose these things
have is a loaded question. The question itself implies that a supreme being
create them for a purpose.>
So you think that Zen is Atheism? That everything is a product of blind luck
and evolution? That one single cell amoeba kept evolving over billions of
years into incredibly complex strands of DNA for millions of completely
unconnected creatures?
Isn't Evolution an act of faith? Isn't the belief in no intelligent higher
power also a religion?
