I notice you have not commented on the scenarios I extrapolated from your own hypotheses, so I will repeat them: 
> 
> “How to explain this arrangement in Turellian terms? God, whose purpose in designing the universe was to produce human beings, preprogrammed the first living cells so that their descendants would produce wasps and spiders a few billion years later, and one particular type of wasp would lay its eggs on the back of a spider etc.
> Alternatively, God saw a wasp and a spider, and dabbled with the wasp to make it lay its eggs on the back of the spider etc.” 
> (I forgot to mention that God also preprogrammed the first living cells to pass on instructions for the spider's brain to be reprogrammed etc. Thank you for reminding me.)
> 
> Can you honestly say you don't find this "incredible"? I'd love to know what Tony and BBella think of it too!-I do not see the All That Is as a ("a" being the operative word) person like entity (as in he) that chooses to do things. I see All That Is (some call God) as creation itself, whatever that entails, and not separate from it. But, I also do believe in the possibility of god like beings (only god like by human standards) that has created us (in a technological sense), interfered and possibly even continues to dabble with earth and it's inhabitants to this day. For me, that explains a lot. I chose to put stock in this possibility because for me, it answers more questions than it creates.
