But sometimes these hormones don't work and a boy doesn't turn into a man.
However such people still die of old age.
Once could suggest that different hormones create old age. But if this is so
why isn't there occasionally a deficiency disorder that prevents this
happening, just as in the boy/man transformation?
If there was only one biological system in this universe that isn't subject
to occasional failure, then that would have profound scientific,
philosophical and theological implications.
