> dhw: Wow! I'm not supposed to even speculate that God, if he exists, might have acted out of boredom, whereas you can read his mind, know his purpose, tell us exactly what he wants, and even categorize the kind of love he has for us. Once more I demand equal rights for agnostics!-You are speculating without study, other than relying upon Darwin who studied and came up to a different conclusion than Wallace who studied the same stuff.-> dhw: Fine if it sounds right to you and answers your questions about reality. Atheists would say the same about their faith in chance. But since when was faith based on reason?-If you study enough cosmology, particle physics, the standard model, and what is currently known about epigenetic evolution it is not difficult to reach some conclusions about the controlling mechanisms. Which although hidden make sense.Reason can come into play. Sure it is guess work, but at least an educated kind of guessing, which is all Darwin did if you are honest about it. I have spent the last several years presenting science on this website. I appreciate the opportunity and it has been fun for me, but the purpose is to show the audience here how science can lead one to easily presume there is a greater power running the show.
