DAVID: I consider God's designed evolution as an all inclusive process.

dhw: The only meaning I can squeeze out of this opaque statement is that you believe your God specially designed every life form, lifestyle, food, natural wonder etc. in the history of evolution.

DAVID: I do.

dhw: And so I ask yet again: why would he have specially designed all the life forms etc. that had no connection with humans plus food if his only purpose was to design humans plus food? Your answer, when you refrain from dodging, is that you don’t know and I should ask God. That is where we should end this discussion.

DAVID: I agree. I won't change my point God chose to evolve us from Archaea.

dhw: As a believer in evolution, I have no problem agreeing that we and every other species – including all those that had no connection with humans - evolved from bacteria. And if God exists, I have no problem agreeing that he would have set the process of evolution in motion. That probably marks the boundaries of our agreement. Pax.
