dhw: But we shall remain miles apart if you still insist that your God programmed the very first cells with all the inventions or improvements (from weavers' nests and monarchs' lifestyles to eyes, ears and penises) that have taken place in the history of evolution, just for the sake of producing humans.-Terms are not important. It is concepts that fit the known evidence. I repeat, Gould termed humans as a 'glorious accident'. We are here against enormous odds. My only answer to 'why' is that I think it was planned. You think 'lucky'. That is fine with me. I can't think of any other possibility than those two. Lucky implies chance. So we are back to square one.
