Bacterial Intelligence? sensing surfaces (General)

dhw: We agreed about nine years ago that chance was the least likely explanation of evolution. If bacteria are as intelligent as some experts in the field believe they are, then we have a readymade explanation for the inventive complexities of evolutionary development. How that intelligence might have come into being remains a mystery, but some sort of God is as reasonable or unreasonable an explanation as any other.

DAVID: You haven't told me how bacteria become so intelligent by themselves. Only God is an acceptable anwser for me.

dhw: You have quoted me: “How that intelligence might have come into being remains a mystery, but some sort of God is as reasonable or unreasonable an explanation as any other.” Please substitute “acceptable or unacceptable” for “reasonable or unreasonable” if that helps.

What is reasonable is that a designing mind is required.
