Back to David's theory of evolution (Evolution)

dhw: Once more, as bolded above: we are discussing the question why your all-powerful God directly designed millions of long gone non-human life forms and their food supply if his one and only purpose was to specially design H. sapiens and his food supply.

DAVID: Answer: because God wanted to do it His way, by evolution, which is the only human creation system we know about.

dhw: Evolution for you means direct design of all species, natural wonders etc. According to the above, then, he wanted to design millions of now extinct non-human life forms and their food supplies that had no link to humans, although the only life form and food supplies that he wanted to design were H. sapiens and his food supplies. This doesn’t make sense, and that is why you have admitted you have no idea why he chose this method.

The usual total distortion of my theory. The bold is preposterous. All of the past organisms are linked to the eventual humans though the process of evolution. Bacteria are our ancestors, or have you forgotten? As for His choice of method, it makes lots of sense, as it leads to a giant bush of food supply. Life always needs daily energy intake, a concept you love to downplay. More reason are in my brain, but as unprovable, why bother, expect to play word games with you.


DAVID: My God is sure confusing to you. He evolved us and 99% of species are gone. History!!! You are so confused. The giant bush, now present, feeds all the bush and our huge population, though God's great foresight.

dhw: The present bush feeds the present bush. That does not explain why your God, whose one and only purpose is supposed to have been to create H. sapiens, specially designed millions of past bushes that had nothing to do with H. sapiens and have now disappeared. You can find no logical reason for these past bushes. I have offered you various explanations, all of which you agree ARE logical but which you reject by contradicting yourself on the subject of God's human attributes. Yes indeed, your version of God is totally confusing.

DAVID: Evolution requires step by step complexification from bacteria to humans over 3.8 billion years. All the way there has to be econiches of food supply for all developing stages. A tiny bush of life became a huge bush, always adequate for all who need to eat. You've been confused by God for quite a while.

dhw: Please explain how all the millions of now extinct non-human life forms and their now extinct food supplies, plus all their strategies, lifestyles, natural wonders etc. – all apparently directly designed by your God - are to be regarded as “developing stages” before your God could directly design H. sapiens.

You are back to immediate creation by God. Why? Developing stages equals evolution, which is the true history of reality. The reality God chose to create.
