"Nope. What works, works. "

VEry lame response. All it amounts to is "if it happened it must have been evolution because we know that the answer to a question can never be God did it". Circular reasoning Vade, that is the question we are trying to answer and you just showed that you cannot refute my statement.

Maybe you would like to try again: Now you have random mutations working together to achieve a goal! Do these random mutations talk to each other? Do they know what the goal is? Do they have a plan for making the organism more fit?

My original answer was just fine for this, but I will explain it better for the slow learners. Brains and eyes, just for an example, coevolve. This does not mean that there is direct coordination of the mutational changes in once place with those in the other. The feedback loop for coevolution is the same as for single-feature evolution. "What works, works." What doesn't work dies without offspring.

The point being that evolution is the theory that is not magic. Yours is the theory that is. But the only evidence for magic is that there's no stopping gore3000 from seeing it everywhere.
