Directionality in evolution without intelligent guidance

If you want to say we are changing it, you have to redefine it to mean "what happens without someone fucking around with it too much". May be semantics, but I think it's important.

It's basically a question of whether you consider humans as part of nature or not, no? I think in the old days there was this prejudiced idea to divide the world into nature and culture. Nature was ruled by culture, which was not really part of it.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
