Well, I mean, you know, there are others that have many of the rudiments. Like dolphins? Yeah. Heather and I talk about the usual suspects. You've got dolphins, including orcas. You've got wolves. You've got other great apes. You've got crows, parrots. There are a lot of creatures that have some of the magic that human beings have, but none of them have all of the components.

Well, it is something special, to be sure. The couple things that need to be said here are, A, I am sympathetic to the intelligent design folks, though I do not believe they are on the right track. I'm open to a universe with intelligence behind it, but I've seen no evidence of that universe myself. I'm open to it. If it happens, I will look at it.

In my opinion, if we had all of the information, the simplest explanation would always be right. It would be a more reliable law. But in general, the simplest explanation tends to be right. If you take the intelligent design folks and you extrapolate from what they seem to be suggesting, they do not escape the
