DAVID: Individual ants work in unison as programmed, while humans act individually. No conceptualization required.

dhw: Why “as programmed”? Yes, they work in unison – so do humans when the action requires teamwork. And you still refuse to acknowledge that all strategies such as bridge-building must have had an origin which requires an inventive intelligence, and once a solution had been found to a particular problem, it would have been passed down to subsequent generations.

DAVID: That the ants start and stop or move along in unison is their individual programming. If you have ever marched. as I did in the Army, you'd understand. Soldiers don't bump in formations.

So did your God preprogramme your march 3.8 billion years ago? Or did he pop in to give you marching lessons?
