> >DHW: I have no idea how much the wasp knew in advance. Maybe it just decided to lay its eggs on the spider's back to see what would happen. Intelligent humans often follow the same procedure and come up with amazing results. I notice you have not commented on the scenarios I extrapolated from your own hypotheses, so I will repeat them: > > “[i]How to explain this arrangement in Turellian terms? God, whose purpose in designing the universe was to produce human beings, preprogrammed the first living cells so that their descendants would produce wasps and spiders a few billion years later, and one particular type of wasp would lay its eggs on the back of a spider etc. > Alternatively, God saw a wasp and a spider, and dabbled with the wasp to make it lay its eggs on the back of the spider etc[/i].” > (I forgot to mention that God also preprogrammed the first living cells to pass on instructions for the spider's brain to be reprogrammed etc. Thank you for reminding me.) > > Can you honestly say you don't find this "incredible"? I'd love to know what Tony and BBella think of it too!-Of course I find it incredible! One could almost say that I find it virtually impossible to explain by chance precisely because it is so incredible. As far as the pre-programming goes, I think there may be some pre-programming for the parasitic action itself. Interestingly enough, we see this type of parasitic action more and more, and across multiple species, and the same with the zombie like re-programming. Yet, in each case, the process is done differently, with different chemicals, behaviors, and results. So, same building block but different expression.
