> Of the two, I find the second far more convincing, as it covers the various gaps I listed at the end of my post of 18 November at 13.18. Your scenario leaves unexplained the need for all the extinct species, for all the long periods of stasis, and indeed for evolution itself, because if man was the goal right from the start, all the intervening stages were clearly superfluous. (What was the point of all those dead dinosaurs?) Since "we can only imagine His reasoning, based on what we see as factual information", what do you imagine was His reason for the delay and the wastefulness covering so many billion years?-Once again you are falling into the trap of reaoning for God's reasoning, if He reasons, but you do it like a human. That doesn't work. One has to analyze backwards: we know what happened, not exactly how, but since it happened (we are here with our giant brains) what are the possible scenarios?

The mess seems to me far more consistent with a process that has not been planned beforehand.-Answered above
