dhw: Natural selection requires no intelligent guidance ... it is an automatic process. But the mechanisms that give rise to change, which are also a lynchpin of evolution, cannot be attributed to an automatic process.-MATT: But they ARE automatic processes; one of the properties of life is "self-replicating". An amoeba doesn't have to think to replicate....-This is a misunderstanding, and I'm sorry if my point was not clear. I meant that the mechanisms (e.g. for reproduction and adaptation) cannot be said to have originated by means of an automatic process. We do not know how they came about. Materialists attribute their existence to chance, and theists attribute it to design. And I remain on my fence.
