Innovation and Speciation: earliest fully a whale (Evolution)

dhw: It has become increasingly obvious that mutations are the response of both microorganisms and multicellular organisms to the demands (or possibly also opportunities) created by changing environmental conditions. Many scientists believe that these bacterial mutations stem from the intelligence of bacteria, but I know of one scientist who thinks his God specially dabbled or preprogrammed every single one of them 3.8 billion years ago.

DAVID: All of the ID folks (scientists) agree with me.

dhw: Does Behe, for instance, actually propose a divine 3.8-billion-year-old computer programme for every undabbled response by bacteria to every new situation throughout the history of life?

Other comments dealt with under “Unanswered questions”.

Behe does not discuss designer controls, but insists everything must have a designer.
