If we take away the divine conception of nature, she is the living sample of duality, things happen that we appreciate as good and things happen that we qualify as horrible.

I know. The point of the objection is that we can't only appeal to the good things to make a case while ignoring the bad things that hamper that very case. Nature has both beautiful and awful things. I could grant that if there's an entity or force responsible for the good things, then it has to be responsible for the bad things as well.

Where does this group intelligence of action that tries to balance the scales come from?

The most plausible explanation is that it's the product of many years of evolution. The documentary I mentioned showed how the Asian bees had effective defensive strategies to battle the invader Asian hornets and even succeed. They said the bees can do so because both species have been evolving and cohabiting together for a while. However, in the same documentary they said that those Asian hornets where taken to Europe, a different ecosystem, and when they started to invade the hives, the European bees could not put up any defense. They were slaughtered despite they were only 30 hornets vs 30,000 bees. The thing is the European bees didn't evolve along with the Asian hornets, so they weren't smart enough to protect themselves.

Thanks for visiting my post, I appreciate it!
