dhw: You have admitted that your argument is based on incredulity, so please don't tell us that these complexities “cannot have been invented by existing organisms”. You simply cannot believe they were. - DAVID: With good reason. Their brains are too simple to be so inventive. - dhw: Man is so sure of his dominion
That he states as fact his mere opinion.
(New Taunton proverb) - DAVID: Only when backed by facts, 
Which IM conjecture lacks.
(Texan two-gun assertion) - dhw: I ain't denyin' my IM hypothesis is simply conjecture.
So's your insistence that weavers can't think. End of lecture.
(Put your guns away) - DAVID: Bird brains are bird brains
Only tiny thoughts entrain
(I remain on target) - Bird thoughts may seem tiny
To great big thinking you,
But they're what get the birdies doing
All that birdies do.
(I think you're aiming at your foot)
