> dhw: It is not beyond the bounds of credibility that for whatever reason the first tern got fed up with its environment and went off exploring (just as humans must have done).-You seem to forget that I used the tern in my book (chapter 8) to illustrate why natures wonders call guidance by God to mind. I was mixed up yesterday, but the tern flies from Arctic to Antarctic each year, the Golden Plover does the Alaska/Hawaii trip each winter. So the first bird just took off for warmer climes and kept flying until he found a nice spot thousands of ocean miles away, without any proper muscle or fat-storage preparation. It is beyond credibility which is why I used the fact. the entire chapter is beyond development by chance which is exactly what you are suggesting. -I repeat, migration is a part of the original patterns as life was programmed.

>dhw: So 3.7 billion years ago your God designed 40 different mechanisms to enable the E. coli to enjoy life in the guts of animals that would appear a few billion years later, and this would provide a constant source of energy, much to the delight of the humans for whose benefit he created the E. coli in the first place. I wonder what Wagner (and victims of E. coli) will have to say about that hypothesis.-What Wagner says is that life has many survival mechanisms so as to defeat challenges. Backup systems are present, not just a single inflexible approach. It all looks planned to me.
