A little note on how things are at the moment.Human: 'I can't wait to go home and have dinner.'
Bacteria: 'buhahahaha, :D, Just you wait till you eat this pizza. You will be dead in another 3 days. I am gonna kill you from inside.'
3 days later-
Human: 'oh! the doc's have given up. I hope I have a peaceful death.'
Bacteria: 'I can't wait for that human to die. I need my dinner ;).'
I have a big doubt in evolution???? are we as in Homo sapiens more evolved than bacteria or in the matter viruses.
From my stand point, I fail to understand some details. What does more evolved species mean?
I would argue against humans being at the top of the evolutionary ladder. But then there are always critics around there who would think I am taking Blasphemy. But well lets argue it out, shall we? Comments are more than welcome if you want to go on about it.
I say bacteria are like an amazing and most novel of all in the evolutionary chain.
Where are they to be seen, just have a look around you where ever you might be standing, there are about at least a million of those bugs around in your vicinity. And well there might be a million times more of them inside you for all that we know.
Now let me pose a basic question; what does it mean to be evolved? Does it mean to have a very sophisticated system, or is it to have a simple system capable of everything a sophisticated system can achieve. This is exactly what the bacteria has done.
It can live and survive and propagate under any condition give a few years. It can eat and digest just about anything starting from food that the higher organisms!! consume right down to petroleum and acid and what not. One bacteria can compensate for the other making it a perfect sociable and symbiotic character; something we humans are yet to achieve.
Oh yeah one of the most fascinating things, it does not require another gender for mating and reproduction and for the continual of its linage.
So now then, what more, I need to sit and think about how many different ways can humans be highly evolved. Crap! is it annoying, for all i know, there might actually be a bacteria capable of reading letters right now, having a good laugh looking through this blog.
