[QUOTE="PsychoSarah, post: 68863057, member: 345531"] -_- the protons and electrons in rocks, through consumption and other means, could one day become part of a living thing, just as much as a dead body's bones will crumble with the organic portions consumed, leaving behind only inorganic minerals. There isn't a reason other than chance that those protons, neutrons, and electrons became me instead of a rock, if you start at the big bang. From that point on, events occurred that made certain atoms more likely to become me, and others more likely to become the rock I stub my toe on. The process isn't completely random, as only materials that can function in living cells will be properly utilized in them and become a major component in living bodies. As hydrogen was converted into other elements in stars, by the properties of those elements, some were better for life while others weren't, thus the carbon and other major contributors to life mass became more likely to become me than the silicon that makes up some of that rock. The life contributing elements that end up on earthlike planets are more likely to becoming living bodies, and so on and so on, one bit of mass becomes a rock, and another becomes me. [/QUOTE]
