> dhw: The balance of nature was needed so that they could eat, but when the balance of nature changed, they couldn't eat and so they died, which shows that they were all necessary for the balance of nature which was necessary for the production and feeding of humans, who arrived millions of years later. I'm afraid I still find it very confusing.-Evolution advanced to humans because everyone along the way could eat. Not confusing. food supply is food supply.

> dhw: We'd need to define semi-autonomous in relation to the nature and degree of your God's participation, which you like to gloss over as “guidance”. But no matter how you define it, I'm glad you now appear to agree that we cannot know why God created an IM in the first place, and so it is “silly” to say his purpose was to produce humans.-Your two thoughts don't follow logically. A semi-automatic IM has created all sorts of wonders of nature while guiding evolution to humans.-And pre-planning takes a role in this if you have noted my latest article about algae.
