David: Of course everything requires explanation. Mine is simple, God.

dhw: You have not explained how God's need to design eight stages of whale etc.etc. in order to produce the human brain fits in with the history of life. Keeping life going does not make the human brain the sole purpose, since life kept going and will no doubt continue to keep going with or without the human brain.

You have just made my point. Our brain is obviously not here as a necessity for survival. Struggle for survival as a tenet of Darwinism goes out the window. An innate part of life having a mechanism to improve ( your idea) or to complexify (mine) is much more to the point, but these ideas are only ways to compensate for the reality hat bacteria didn't need to get more complex other than to learn to live in extreme environments. Why improvement or complexity can only be explained by a driving force, God, not chance.

As for the bush of life, I simply accept it as God's method of evolution providing food energy for life to have the energy to survive for all the time evolution needed to advance to us.
