Is Darwinian theory still the most powerful theory we've got?

Why or why not?

Well, yes.

In biology, it's the only theory we've got to explain.

This is an interesting thing about evolution, actually.

I think that it's neither objective nor subjective, right?

There's the objective environmental constraints,

but there's a subjective sexual selection.

That's perhaps more pronounced in humans.

I wouldn't call it subjective.

Oh, you wouldn't call it subductive?

I don't think so.

But the metaphor you used here of ways of making a living as being comparable to ways of replicating DNA-coded messages into the future.

All that making a living means is passing on genes. Literally what it means. Wow.

And so this is the fundamental language of life itself.

Yes, it's just like a computer code, but instead of being binary, it's quaternary.

So we are then maybe in the digital age coming closer to understanding technologically

what we are.

Possibly. I mean, That's a plausible idea.

I mean, the word God comes to mind. I know you don't like that word,

but what is that single organism from which we all come from?

No, I mean, that's a big question.
