One fascinating aspect about life is the fact that it offers(biologically speaking atleast)itself genuine protection without our conciousness. And i would like to argue that the primary reason for human conciousness is in extending the need for sustaining our breath where the self-sustaining body systems fall short. Strangly, as biological beings, we should appreciate hunger as much as satisfaction, pain as much as medicine and thirst as much as quenching it. These alarm signals manifest themslves in our conciousness for us to act and stay alive. In a way these exposes our weakness beyond comprehension and the fact that we should not get intoxicated with the beauty of knowledge to the point of denying the existence of superior being. The fact that our brain can understand the order in the universe can't be an accident.
