Well, that's what Chardin said, and I respect his point of view.
Chardin didn't reject evolution theory at all, and he knew mankind
itself was evolving in technology, society and biology. Mankind is
going to the Omega point. Space settlers are just trying to achieve
the dream of Chardin, peopling Space.

Now, in the matter of brain complexity, I am really amazed of it,
and I can't understand how many serious scientists believe
reproducing it is a "piece of cake". It is not. Not at all. Many
don't have a clue of the task ahead. I am talking from the point of
view of enginering in here, only.

If the brain was designed or not by an Architect is a matter of
faith, and if you believe it I respect your oppinion. I was only
pointing the fact the task of building "artificial intelligence" is
well beyond what our current technology can achieve, and probably
that project will have to way centuries or, perhaps, millenia.
