dhw:If you can believe that a little bit of your universal intelligence is in every cell, you can believe that lots of little bits of it can plan and coordinate.

>David: There has to be an overall universal consciousness doing the planning and coordination, not litle bits superficially connected with their automatic biochemical responses. You have it backwards to avoid God.
> -DHW, your cellular intelligence lacks the scope to be able to plan creation. It might serve to plan small changes within its individual unit (body) but it can not account for the organization within the universe as a whole. You can't separate one from the other when trying to discuss "the big picture".
