dhw: If you favour the hypothesis that God endowed the first living cells with a mechanism capable of inventing new organs and modes of behaviour, then the creation of that mechanism is all that is required to explain evolution..... Either the inventive mechanism is inventive or it is not.-It can be inventive and directed at the same time. Whole organism epigenetics can maker adaptations in response to challenges, but does not explain the sudden appearance of whole new organisms in the fossil record-> 
> dhw: And to repeat once again, the entire organism consists of cells, and if changes are to be successful, all the cell communities within the organism must cooperate. And if the undiscovered mechanism that is contained within the cells/cell communities is inventive, the plans are not “in” it but are made by it.-All cell communities are under control of their DNA, which they can modify, as shown by epigentic research to make variants. Full blown new species require information and planning.
