We are her by a biological process, which has no intend or purpose except to procreate. What we do, how we act and how we evolve into thinking, rational beings has with no other influences except societal and anthropological processes.
There is no "other-worldly" metaphysical or spiritual forces (except for what we concoct in our heads) that have any effect on human existence or development.
Unless you consider intelligence a "higher thought process?" And in the case of folks that believe in all that codswallop, I don't see any indication of enhanced or evolved intelligence.

I have NO need to convert you....it is a CHOICE.....and it is MY choice....YOUR view is YOUR
view.....I only provide ANOTHER view....(isn't it nice to have options?)
