cellular controls of protein paths (Evolution)

dhw: You have simply ignored what I have written (now bolded). I am not disputing the automaticity of the vast majority of our physical processes. Intelligence is not demonstrated by these automatic actions but by the responses of cells to situations that demand decisions.

I do not accept your view. That 'demonstration' by cells in my view is that the cells are following on-board information as to how to respond.

QUOTE: (under “bacterial resistance”): “We don't know exactly how it happens yet, but we think the two bacterial species both 'know' when the other type of cell is there and respond appropriately," said Benjamin Obadia of UC Berkeley.

DAVID: My view is God started life with bacteria and they have been kept around to help us live better in many ways. Protection designed by God.

dhw: Why don’t you comment on the obvious sentience of bacteria and their appropriate responses? Bacteria sometimes help and sometimes hinder. If your God designed the protection, it would not be unreasonable to assume that he also designed the danger. Fair enough – perhaps it’s all part of the wonderful spectacle your hidden God may be watching. Just a thought.

I'm sure God is watching, at His own level of personal thought.
