So even if we, in this universe, are the product of a creator's work, ultimately that creator is going to have to have come from somewhere, and the only explanation that could possibly work is going to be Darwinian. So, again, I'm not saying that I know whether... There is or there isn't.

But I am saying that the principle that has allowed us to see all of what we can see, that has allowed us to build all that we have built, that principle is parsimony, and it suggests that this universe is not the product of an intentional creation.

Right. And I see, you know, you can make the question go away, but I don't know what that means. We don't have any example of such a thing.

Well, okay, let me take a different tack. Yes. Let's say that, let's just start from the premise that there is a creator who intended this universe and the biota. So I'm a product of that. Right. In this thought experiment. And in such a case, I know that this creator gave me a capacity to reason. I'm pretty good at it, and so I have invested in it professionally. And he gave me an incredible...

set of evidence for Darwinian evolution. And I'm now forced to grapple with the question of why a creator would have given me a capacity to reason, would have given me the principle of parsimony, the power of which I can see, and a set of evidence that forces me to conclude that the biota at least evolved in a Darwinian way. Now, it could be Let's put it this way.

I think the simplest explanation then would be that the creator used evolution to make the biology. And that, you know, maybe the creator is especially interested in the products of a Darwinian process. You know, maybe the creator is as delighted as I am or because he's the creator more delighted than I am at the sight of a hummingbird.

That that's a marvelous thing to have happened through this process. I could imagine that. It still doesn't strike me as the simplest way to explain the universe that I see. But if a creator wanted a universe in which biological marvels happened, then the universe might look like this.
