The really honest thing to do would be to say we don't know how life originated or what caused life to change over time

And again keep making the same mistake over & over again, evolution does not address the abiogenesis or origin point of life...or the universe etc, thats an entirely different thread.

This poetry by the Persian poet Hafez from 1350 is really something, am absolutely sure this started a revolution back in Europe when they brought such literature back with them from the Crusades nearly two centuries before. And you think there was no syncretism or outside cultural effects, too bad the poets didn't rule.

All the Hemispheres

Leave the familiar for a while.
Let your senses and bodies stretch out
Like a welcomed season
Onto the meadow and shores and hills.

Open up to the Roof.
Make a new watermark on your excitement
And love.

Like a blooming night flower,
Bestow your vital fragrance of happiness
And giving
Upon our intimate assembly.

Change rooms in your mind for a day.
All the hemispheres in existence
Lie beside an equator
In your heart.

Greet Yourself
In your thousand other forms
As you mount the hidden tide and travel
Back home.

All the hemispheres in heaven
Are sitting around a fire
Chatting

While stitching themselves together
Into the Great Circle inside of
You.
