Just like the bacteria, that so seemingly insignificant can wipe us out in a plague in a heartbeat, or something so insignificant as water or air can tame the strongest and wisest human if they are not available.
The design of this world as we see it (or at least think we know it) it utterly amazing and I am glad that at least we can dialogue on this and find points where we agree. This at a minimum allows our dialogue to continue and progress while at the same time not breaking down into a mess of insults and personal attacks.

I understood your post. My comments were aimed at the evolutionist who claim Darwim's theories prove that a diety need not exist. I submit that Darwinism can be viewed to prove intelligent design.
Of course, there is the Platypus. A creature, I believe, the Lord created to frack with the heads of the academic elites.
