No, just suggesting that the complexity you want to get to is life and that life is much more complex than star formation.

I am not suggesting that the goal of all this emergent complexity is life. I am suggesting that our reality is an emergent complex system. Sustained emergent complexity is the goal of this fined tuned system we call the universe....not life.

Intellect...it appears....is another example of emergent complexity. I'm surprised none of you jumped on that yet.
