Yeah, well its certainly not counter-intuitive to me, God is more counter-intuitive because I find the whole "God" and "Supernatural" thing absurd.
I just mean when the idea first arrived, when Darwin and Wallace first talked of it, it went against a lot of people's intuition.
And a lot of people don't understand it today.
It may not be against our intuition, I find at least the basics very easy to understand, but its not like that for everyone.
