Your comment, taken in conjunction with your other dogmas, means that your God either preprogrammed these different weapons 3.8 billion years ago or directly dabbled them in order to provide the energy to keep life going until he was able to achieve his only goal: to produce humans, which he could do without difficulty. And this makes sense to you?

> Your proposal that organisms can jump with rapid adaptations is possible, but this can be through God's actions just as well. As for producing humans in 3.8 billion years, brings us to considering limits vs. God's choice of timing, nothing more. I believe He choose that length of time rather than He is limited. Perfect sense to me.
