    How did the system come about? You say this as if the system were intentionally designed. But it is not: the natural order which creates evolutionary pressure is itself the culmination of many coincidences.

      I don’t think it was designed but that’s nothing evolution is concerned about. Evolution is (as the name implies) about evolving systems and doesn’t really say anything about how the first replicating “system” came to be because that’s abiogenesis and not evolution.
