When life began, why did it want to reproduce itself behond its own existence?
Any takers?

The best explanation for this I have ever read was in The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins. Why don't you pick up a copy.
The only way I can explain the alacrity of living things towards reproduction is through the programming that their creator engineered within them. By creating mankind with strong mating instincts, for example, the creator would insure that the human race would never die out.
Through a materialist perspective solely, I find it a mystery as to how a desire for reproduction could arise, especially since it would have to be accidental, haphazard, random, blind, a sheer mistake.

Many organisms such as diseases,are intelligent and kill to exist.
Their sole driving force often kills its host and moves on.
Your reasoning, makes God a gruesome designer.
