The first cell of life on Earth, that formed due to the evolutionary properties of matter, innately and spontaneously had the attribute of preserving its specific properties to remain as "life", "not decomposing or disintegrating". If it had not possessed such a property, it would not have been able to develop further and would have remained as one of the types of more complex formations and minerals, like crystals and proteins. Thus, this property of primary life determined the main specificity of its further evolution. And the biological organisms that subsequently formed, under the influence of millions of connected and random factors, accordingly, possessed this attribute of self-preservation, the preservation of their biological existence, which meant feeding to stay alive, and consequently, moving to find food, and, more broadly — to struggle for their existence. This very property has left deep imprints on the human species, with both positive and negative aspects, which we must study in greater depth to steer humanity's journey in the right direction.
The universe exists just so, by itself. Its inherent self-organizing property, capable of forming organisms and intellect, does not mean that it has a predetermined purpose. This causeless and purposeless property and without it, intelligent beings would not have emerged, asking questions.
Not only the anatomy of all living beings, including humans, is a corresponding arrangement of physical particles, but also their fundamental and all other properties.
For arguing the theses of metaphysical naturalism, it is not at all necessary to define the beginning of time, the finiteness of the Universe, or how a living molecule appeared on Earth, other facts indicating the natural causeless development of events are more than sufficient: life on planet Earth could not have originated; evolution has no purpose; mass extinctions in the history of life; the vast number of extinct species; the specifics of the life of hominids and the earliest humans; the function of the human mind at its inception; the high probability of the extinction of all life, not only in the past but also today; the entire logic of human history; all its sufferings, pains, and achievements; the continuity of the appearance of various teachings and moral norms, and much more.
The thought that "in the Universe, there likely already exist or will definitely form advanced sublime intelligent beings" arouses delight and increases spiritual satisfaction.
