I would imagine that it is possible that, that question is just like asking how did space begin--a violation of logic itself. If both are wrong, the myths that so called scientist create, and the myths of the religious, who in their right mind would claim that the one is superior to the other? Who in their right mind would say that one dead man was better off than another dead man because one body was older than the other?

However, it is not the same as How our life began. There is a difference between Space and a space, between Life and a life, between Love and a love--even difference between God and a god. Although every member of a class has the same definition as every other member of the same class, the member of a class is not the definition of which it is a member. A concept that Bertrand Russell was not even capable of formulating, while others don't even try. i.e. class mechanics, neither a boundary of a thing is a thing, nor is the material difference of a thing a thing, Plato wrote Parmenides so that the reader may some day realize the principles of what can and cannot be predicated of what. If one knew the elements of grammar, they can easily construct a simple table of permissible predications determined solely on the notion that A = A.
