Well, looking back through the thread, I guess what I'm saying is that I see a harmony in the universe, that things interact in marvelous ways. And that maybe it would be a good idea for us all to act in harmony with the universe, for the purpose of mutual growth and survival.

But as Snail said at the outset (whenever that was), "that sounds dangerously close to intelligent design."

Or not. Maybe things work together in a rational manner simply because otherwise, they would cease to function.
