What’s shaking (figuratively speaking…not looking for any details here)? I’m not sure where to begin so I’ll start at the beginning:

Thanks for the above, This is a difficult question that covers science, philosophy, ontology, religion, spirituality and more.

I’m with you 100% on the subjects covered. I think of each of those subjects (and more) like different camera angles on the same Truth.

By “family tree”, I mean all of your parents, grand-parents, and so-on, back to the first human on earth who mated and procreated in your direct ancestry. Some would say about 6800 years; some would say three to five million years that humans have existed. I say almost one million years humans have existed here on earth. As a Jesusonian Christian, I do not believe in reincarnation; some here may use that error in their attempted explanation in their answer.

I have to say, I’m not sure what you’re talking about here, but no hard feelings….half the time I don’t know what I’m taking about, so let’s just cyber-fist-bump and pretend like this paragraph never happened.

What is the mathematical chance that all of your direct ancestors would each survive long enough to mate and procreate you ? Yet, you and I are here !

Depending on your views on predestination, I suppose the chance is either 100%, or a frog’s hair above zero….either way, all this talk about my ancestors mating is kind of grossing me out, Jerry!

There is a deep, spiritual truth also involved here, maybe more than one.

Thank you for all sincere answers !

Love, peace and progress in Spirit and in Truth !
Nice One!
