[MD] Dawkins a Materialist (is watching?)

[Arlo Bensinger]

[Arlo previously]
The Universe, and mind, emerged from Quality interactions among 
individuals in increasingly complex collectives.

[Jos]
I think the tenses are all wrong here,  It's better to say "emerges" 
rather than emerged. Then, "such a system" comes now from quality 
interractions, still.

[Arlo]
An excellent observation. Yes, I stand corrected.

[Jos]
"does it emerge suddenly from nothing?" yes, with every passing 
moment static patterns are actualised out of nothingness. Right?

[Arlo]
No disagreement here.
