I don't disagree but might one argue that the scientific method, DNA, and natural selection are in some sense creations of a design within mind?
As of yet there is no answer to the question: "What must nature, including man, be like in order that science be possible at all...What must the world be like in order that man may know it?" (Thomas Kuhn).
Please stop. This is bullshit. A hurricane does not need Poseidon as a cause. Nor does evolution or the universe need a cognition to start it. "All this" is a result of natural laws, not products manufactured by magical beings, cognitions or entities.
The world does not have to be what we want. We have to adapt ourselves through observation and testing and peer review. That is how we gain better understanding. Don't add superfluous bullshit woo to it.
