> > DAVID: [i]Again we are back to interpretation. I am allowed to reinterpret Darwinist articles. Broca's area was there before speech is the point, not that it also had something to do with tools. of course, we agree, it did something before language developed. It was there prepared to handle future speech[/i].

They were not inserted as preparation for unknown uses millions of years later.

> > dhw: [i]Ah well... I’d have thought it would make more sense for new cells to be created in response to new needs rather than just to stick around for a few thousand years doing nothing. (Or 7 million years – see under “our special genes”.) I wonder if all your ID-ers agree with this theory of yours.[/i]

> > 
> > dhw: What does that mean? That meeting the requirements of the time is NOT their intended use? And ID-ers think that God preprogrammed or dabbled pre-sapiens brains millions of years in advance of their “intended” use?

> We've agreed the early cells don't just sit there with nothing to do, waiting for their expected future job. ID believes God designed the special sapiens brain, from teh less specialized Erectus brain.
