Therefore, I would not expect to see adaptive changes in a created system--there wouldn't be any need for them.

The implications of making such a statement... just wow.
"I would not expect"... well, who are YOU?

This is the same kind of ignorant arrogance exhibited in those who present the "problem of evil" dillema, as if they know anything but a very small part of the big picture.

(metmom - my comments are directed at the statement, not at you)
