- Angostura 18y agoAh, so God's in the cosmic rays and the replication errors? I'm sorry but the original poster is clearly saying that the article is attempting to be misleading, by creating a false dichotomy between natural selection and 'designed' evolution. I see no evidence that the dichotomy is false.
- sethg 18y agoGod's in the cosmic rays, the replication errors, and everything else. Monotheism means there's nobody else to blame. If I read in the news about Joe Shmoe winning the lottery, I might say that God "guided" the lottery balls in a way that caused Joe's number to come up. But I wouldn't deny the scientific truth of Newton's laws of motion, or deny that from a human observer's point of view, the selection of lottery numbers is random.
- Angostura 18y agoYou could say that, but that would be to define God as random chance - and if you want to define God in that way, I suppose I could say I believe in God. Probably not a very useful definition, however.
