The participants in this conversation that took place at Castel Gandolfo included the Pope, Salomon, the Praetorian Guard Hammurabi, and Father Mauroux, the head of the Vatican’s mystical and military departments. Among them, the Praetorian Guard Hammurabi was only
Following behind from a distance, Father Moreau, who assumed the responsibility of supervising the Praetorian Guards, could only follow Hammurabi and could not hear the conversation between the Pope and Salomon - Francis had already
I learned about Salomon's identity from Father Moru, and there was also a ceremony performed by a group of cardinals as an example, so there was not much doubt.
However, the conversation between Salomon and the Pope was not as serious as Father Mauru imagined. Most of the early conversations focused on football, music and children in the slums. This relaxed and happy atmosphere even though Salomon showed immortality to the Pope.
The city's supercomputer did not disappear when it analyzed the results of the Micah-Ule experiment simulation.
This is a very famous experiment, also known as the original soup of life experiment.
Although Darwin proved that life is constantly evolving, he failed to solve the mystery of how the evolutionary process began. So in the 1950s, two chemists Micah and Uriel conducted a bold experiment.
Hoping to unravel the mystery of how life began, try to create life from inanimate chemicals.
On March 8, 1953, the "New York Times" published an article titled "Looking Back Two Billion Years Ago." At that time, the impact of this article was earth-shattering, especially for the religious community. If Micah and Uriel's test tube
If life was miraculously born in this place, then it can be concluded that we no longer need a supernatural being to descend from the sky and give mankind the creation of fire, which will prove that life is an inevitable product of the laws of nature. Likewise, this
One conclusion can also be drawn, that is, since life can arise spontaneously on the earth, there will also be life elsewhere in the universe.
However, Micah and Uriel's experiment failed.
Although several amino acids were produced in the test tube, they were far from the birth of life. No matter how Micah and Yuri tried, life was still not born in the test tube. As early as the arrival of the Chitauri, they proved the existence of extraterrestrial life.
Before life, in 2007, Micah's test tube was rediscovered in a closet at the University of California, San Diego. Students used more advanced methods, including liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry, to reanalyze the sample, and the results were astonishing. In
After reanalyzing the test tubes, several important nucleobases were identified.
In other words, the amino acids in the test tube make up the bases.
This discovery is exciting. Life has evolved over billions of years, and those test tubes have changed in just fifty years after being thrown into the closet. The fifty years that humans have been exploring life have played a significant role in the evolution of life as a whole.
It was just a blink of an eye. After that, people's interest in creating life in the laboratory was rekindled. The Pope remembered this, and he was still a Jesuit archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Member. "Evolution does not contradict God's creation. As early as 1950, Pius VII stated that the theory of evolution is not inconsistent with doctrine. In 1996, Paul II also expressed his approval of this view." The Pope said with a smile, "
But you still haven't proven where life comes from."
"That's why supercomputers are mentioned." Salomon stretched out his fingers and stroked the leaves in the flowers. "Human beings can't go forward two billion years to see what's in the test tube, but mathematics can. We can combine everything
The parameters we need are constructed into a model. We need to simulate all the parameters of the primitive ocean. The computer needs to understand motion, thermodynamics, gravity, etc. Only in this way can the computer accurately simulate and reshape the combinatorial relationship between each atom in the primitive ocean.
Fortunately, I had more than one such computer, so I couldn't wait to start calculations and simulations."
"So what's the result?"
"Fifty years later, the basic materials of RNA appeared in the flask, which was completely consistent with the Micah-Ule experiment. The simulation continued, and when the computer cooling pool boiled, the time stretched out for tens of millions of years, and there were still only compounds and compounds in the flask.
Some messy mixture."
The Pope raised his eyebrows in surprise, "No life?"
"No." Salomon admitted his failure openly and seemed unconcerned.
"This is really surprising." There was no gloating in the Pope's words. On the contrary, his emotion was only regret.
"This is easy to understand. The second law of thermodynamics shows that heat cannot be transferred from a low-temperature object to a high-temperature object without causing other changes. In a closed system, all energy will eventually become entropy."
"Can you enlighten me?"
"Entropy will disintegrate structures, such as hot water becomes cold, and beach castles are washed away by the beach into loose sand. This is entropy. This process is irreversible energy conduction. How inanimate chemicals organize themselves into complex life forms, this is
The greatest mystery of life. There is no doubt that the laws of nature are random rather than organized, but this is not the reason why we are looking for the Creator." Salomon stretched out his hand and used a tablet to show the Pope something in nature.
Regular phenomena. Such as gravity, snowflakes, vortices, quartz crystals, etc. "The universe will organize matter from disorder to order, which seems to be the opposite of entropy. The conclusions given by most physicists prove that the universe is
Disordered, the universe drives entropy and disorder."
The Pope spread his hands and motioned for Salomon to continue speaking.
"However, other facts prove that the universe operates according to a single instruction, with only one goal, which is to dissipate energy. Let us return to the self-organization cases in nature, such as tornadoes, snowflakes, ripples, etc., these are
Dissipative structure - that is, molecules complete self-organization in the structure to promote the system to diffuse energy more effectively. Simply put, the purpose of material organization is to better dissipate energy. While the universe promotes disorder, it also creates
Without the order of small pieces, a structure in which the disordered state of a system gradually upgrades, and the ordered small pieces enhance entropy. To effectively create disorder, a certain degree of order is required."
Salomon drew a mathematical symbol representing the Big Bang and entropy of the universe, which is an arrow extending from a center point in eight different directions. "Order will be born out of disorder, in this self-organizing way."
Entropy increases. This process does not require God to kick the first kick. So I added an instruction to this calculation model, which is to aim at dissipating energy."
"Then what's the result?"
Salomon called up an animation with a timeline, and the results of Micah-Ule's experiment appeared at the fifty-year timeline. The compounds in this closed system continued to move, binding to each other, and starting from the basic protein.
The chain gradually evolved into a honeycomb hexagon. This is a nucleotide. Then the nucleotide chain began to wind around itself and curled into a helical structure. Then, the helix gradually evolved into a double helix structure, which is
life code dna.
"This is a very simple truth. If you want to dissipate more energy, the easiest way is to reproduce yourself. Life is just the inevitable result of entropy and is a means used to increase entropy. The Battle of New York proved
"If we find out that there is life outside the earth, it proves that life can take root and sprout anywhere. Life is not something created and reproduced by the universe in order to dissipate energy. It is inevitable by chance and a spontaneous product of the laws of physics."
"Then why don't you continue?" The Pope shrugged, "If you continue, the life in the flask may become a rock musician!"
"You are the pope with the most sense of humor I have ever seen, Holy See." Salomon said with a smile, "This kind of work continues. In alien civilizations, aliens have also created their own races through similar means.
God. Located on the Hala star in the Large Magellanic Cloud, there is a supercomputer called the Supreme Intelligence. It is a life that exists in the computer. The establishment process can be compared to the simulation I showed you. If we continue, Flask
The life in it is not just as simple as playing rock music. I changed the algorithm and used a method similar to logical deduction to speed up the evolution of compounds. We created virtual life, which is a group of virtual prokaryotes in the mathematical sense. But here we are
It can no longer proceed. If you want to evolve, you must increase the capacity, introduce more substances, and calculate the changes of all compounds. The simulation of the brain also takes up a lot of resources."
At this point, Salomon's expression looked a little regretful. "Whether DNA mutates, it is Schrödinger's cat. It is a compound in a quantum state. It is not enough to directly use qubits for calculations - no quantum computer can run such a huge intelligent life.
All the computers on earth combined cannot do this, and my scientific research team is still researching further methods. We have technology and theory, but we are still busy converting it into practical uses. This is the same as the beginning of life, a process from 0 to
1’s progress, every step.”
"Father Mauroux is a pious man, and he tried his best to facilitate this conversation." The Pope said with his hands behind his back, "I know your identity, the meaning of your existence and the results of the Mass in the Alps. Every era has different
Main purpose, the revelations you bring are different in every era. In the past, you believed in the Creator, and now you believe in science. Although they are different, they are all things that human beings need at that time. I know that you came to see me to make this old guy like me feel better.
Some."
Before Salomon could continue, the Pope smiled and patted his arm, "It doesn't matter if I am the last Pope. Whether it is being nailed to a cross or killing a dragon, this world will always exist.
Faith, even your "Unified Truth" is no exception. No matter where mankind will go in the future, compared to the past, you are at least walking among us now, aren't you?"
