All excellent points, cheee. Did you happen to catch the other chapters of this fascinating book? Did you happen to catch Ch 1 re: spider spinnerets? I’m assuming that is why you brought them up. It’s almost as our physical bodies (be it animals, insects, etc) are comprised of trillions of sensors that the software in our respective brains has been written to read and act on in different ways (too include all of our exotic rituals!).
Haven’t read them, yet ... but intend to.
It’s not surprising that spiders would come up in this discussion. Imagine what it would take to write the ‘field manual’ for instructing a spider in the care and use of their web-making tool? It would have to be hundreds of pages thick.
But the spider has that instruction manual somehow loaded into it’s minuscule little brain and wields it’s spinnerets expertly from day one. Just amazing.
BTW, I don’t post much on FR but do a lot of reading. I always look forward to your threads. More often than not, I learn something new and useful. I do, however, cringe at much of the vitriol thrown at you. Those anti-God zealots can be really nasty.
What you’re doing to enlighten and educate is appreciated. Thank you for fighting the good fight. Keep it up...
