QUOTE: "The study is yet another example of how diversity is important to support healthy living systems. Each type of microbe might impart different benefits to plants, such as increased immunity, stress tolerance or nutrient absorption."

DAVID: Once again we see how important bacteria are in the scheme of livings things and their continuing health. God knows what He is doing, despite dhw's doubts. We wondered, early on, why bacteria survived all the extinctions and are still here. they were meant to be a major help all along. God knows His plans for the future, from the beginning.

Of course they’re important, and I’ve never questioned that. Nor have I ever questioned that if God exists, he knows what he’s doing! The question which you simply refuse to face up to is why, if his one and only purpose was to specially design H. sapiens, he specially designed billions of now extinct non-human life forms and their econiches and their lifestyles and their strategies and other natural wonders. You cannot find a single reason why he should have done so. Bacteria are essential to all forms of life, and food is essential to all forms of life. That doesn’t mean that all forms of life are/were essential to enable him to specially design humans! “See David’s theory of evolution”.
