David How do you KNOW it is a waste of energy. Our solar system requires a special kind of sun, not a common style star, as one example of Hugh Ross's comments, presented yesterday, about our special Earth. It is YOUR human judgment that gets in your way.[/i]

dhw: Of course I don't "KNOW" anything, and nor do you, but what other judgement can either of us use? Please explain, then, how you think a solar system that died billions of years ago, billions of light years away from our own, might have been vital for the the production of human beings. If you can’t do so, then you should be able to understand why I am sceptical.

Are you forgetting how special this universe has to be in fine tuning for life to appear. Therefore the universe had to be planned in a very special way to evolve to the point when the Earth formed. Solar systems came and went until the right one appeared. God worked with an evolving universe. Look at the whole picture, not bits and pieces. You still sound like those who denigrate the funny looking human retina.
