Because of something called extropy. Complex adaptive systems evolve into more
complex, more highly evolved, adaptive systems, organisms, and super-organisms.
No mystery here, and no supernatual cause at work. The natural order of the
universe eventuates in genetic algorithms, organic chemistry, and Darwinian
evolution.
