Darwins doubt (Introduction)
David: My contention is that inorganic plasma of the early universe could not invent consciousness and the intelligence therein by chance. C&I had to already exist and simply re-created itself through an evolution of the universe. > > > > > Tony: A better question is, how could we get to a state of inorganic plasma without the laws that govern the formation of inorganic plasma already in effect? How can you have a law without intelligent formation of said law? No matter which way we go, we will wind up in a series of infinite regressions, which become less and less answerable with each successive step.-Put another way, it is obvious that astrophysical findings follow very set rules. Who made the rules? Infinite regress always comes back to that same point. Can we ever assume taht at some point no rules existed? Did the rules invent themselves?
