Stephen: Thanks for this. It is related to the peculiar fact that according to
Darwinism a series of historical accidents in the shape of random mutations
in species of apes, which were selected for survival in Africa 5-10 mya,
have produced a species (namely Homo sapiens) that has a mathematical
facility to understand the underlying mathematical laws upon which the
universe is constructed:>>
And ? Are you saying that mathematical reasoning is impossible to evolve ?
Stephen: <<Denton notes that there is a "unique correspondence" between "the logic of
our mind and the logic of the cosmos" that enables us "to comprehend the
world" and that "it is hard to avoid the impression that a miracle is at work
here":>>
People sometimes interpret observations as if they are 'miraculous'. Of course miracles do not necessarily require 'intelligence' on the other side.
Stephen: <<To put it in a nutshell, Davies observes that "mathematics...is...unique to
humans" >>
A very anthropocentric presumption.
Stephen: << Note here that while Darwinian natural selection cannot explain the
capabilities of the human brain to know the underlying mathematical laws
of physics, an Intelligent Designer *could* arrange these so-called "chance
events" to progressively build the "wiring pattern" of the human brain in
such a way that it could in the future be called upon to comprehend and
master the laws of physics!>>
Of course, the intelligent designer you have in mind could do anything. After all lacking any evidence or proof, anything is possible and nothing is impossible. That Darwinism or more exactly those applying Darwinism cannot explain something hardly means that there is no such explanation.
