(DHW)There’s nothing in nature to explain ANY such advances. Bacteria survived OK, and scientists would be delighted to find the most primitive form of life on Mars even without evolved species. So what was the need for greater complexity? Not being able to answer is hardly grounds for belief.

Time today for a brief response to only this statement: "There's nothing in nature to explain ANY such advances": exactly!!!!! In my book I comment that bacteria have started life and have survived all the way. Why did evolution bother with complexification without the NEED to? Threis obviously something that drives complexity in the genome, such as the newly-discovered epigenetics.
