May I ask how we know THEIR purpose without reading God's mind?-I can't read His mind but I can see His obvious purpose: US > > DAVID: [i]We are back to 50/50 here in a sense as in bacterial reactions. Pre-planning is seen in the genes, no question. From the outside it well can look like an IM working.[/i] > > dhw: Alternative version: an autonomous intelligence is seen in the genes, no question. From the outside it well can look like pre-planning.-When an autonomous intelligence made the genes what do you expect!
