*MYSTICISM ALERT!*
Is rational thought the result of evolution or is
evolution the result of rational thought? No matter
how accurate your maps are they never become the
territory they represent. Creationism and evolution
are both ridiculously low resolution maps of the
ultimate truth. To think otherwise is just conceit. If
mankind were to create life in a test tube tomorrow
this would be just as much evidence for Intelligent
Design perhaps more so than for abiogenesis. After all
you are merely showing that the purposeful creation of
life is statistically more likely than the accidental
development thereof. I think the real question is
whether you believe in infinity. If you do then the
infinite recursion of creationism is no longer a
paradox. The rational mind is merely a tool to
simulate certain aspects of what IS. The question is
is this rationality a property of your mind or the
property of the universe as a whole?
