As a first cause, no, but as an indication of evolution over long periods of time, yes.

And again, I have no problem with the "intelligent design" scenario. The fact that all living things, regardless of their actual physiology, have DNA kinda makes this a no-brainer. I just think the design, itself, is very intelligent and ultimately will be decipherble, just as we are still attempting to understanding the process of other natural phenomena, such as hurricanes and earthquakes.

There is a system (otherwise, we wouldn't have repeatable phenomena, such as seasons) - I just don't believe there's a sole superbeing or intelligence overlooking it.


Cool beans. I see your point of view. Enjoy the weekend, as I won't be around much.
