| Oct 7, 2015 at 7:12 | comment | added | Lostinfrance | For life to evolve from a rock, and for such a rock-based lifeform to evolve sentience, and for a sentient rock-based lifeform to evolve a mobile humanoid body are all unlikely things, getting more unlikely in that order. Maybe a lifeform could have a juvenile stage in which it was a mobile humanoid but NOT made out of rock, and then at a later stage of life its body (or most of its body) would calcify and it would become sessile while remaining sentient and, one hopes, the ability to communicate. That would give you a sentient, mobile, humanoid rock-based lifeform but not all simultaneously. | |
