Biological complexity: immune cells reach infections (Introduction)

David's comment: Responses to infectious attack must be immediate. The blood white cells act intelligently. But they are acting under intelligent instructions, not that they are innately intelligent on their own. I view bacteria the same way, because they are the progenitors in evolution of these cells in our bodies.

dhw: Please explain “under intelligent instructions”. Do you mean your God preprogrammed this intelligent behaviour 3.8 billion years ago, to be passed down by the very first cells, or your God intervenes whenever the cells have a problem?

I have the same old problem trying to differentiate between pre-planning or dabbling. No matter, God is in control.
