DAVID: It is only your opinion my theory is illogical. I see it as perfectly logical. I cannot read God's mind, just as you can't. I must judge god from His works and you know my judgement.

dhw: No, none of us can read God’s mind, but when I ask you why, if his only purpose was to create humans plus their food, he first created countless life forms and foods that had no connection with humans, you say it’s “perfectly logical” but you don’t know why and I should ask him. How can it be “perfectly logical” if you can’t explain it?

DAVID: It needs no explanation. He chose to evolve us in designed stages as history shows.

That is not what needs to be explained. What needs to be explained is why, if your all-powerful God’s one and only goal was to evolve [=design] us plus our food, he first evolved [designed] countless life forms and foods that had no connection with us. You have said you don’t know why and I should ask him. How can it be ”perfectly logical” if you can’t explain it? I have a feeling I have asked this question before, but I don’t seem to have had an answer.
