    Engineering is applied physics, and physics is how the universe works (limited by our understanding of it, of course). Organisms follow physics just as much as any engineered device or structure.

        Who applies the gravity to that jellyfish? Same answer. Newton didn’t invent gravity, and it still exists even if you don’t understand. Gravity affects that jellyfish as much as it affects me. Newton gave me the formulas to describe it.

            I don’t know if this a comprehension issue or trolling, but either one is a problem for you to fix, not me. Good luck out there.

                My disengagement on this discussion isn’t due to my lack of ideas or capability to explain them, but due to my lack of belief in your ability or desire to grasp them. This was implied in my previous comment, but even that level of subtlety appears to be beyond you.

                  You’re disengagement is because you aren’t willing to make an “intelligent design” argument, despite the fact that your own reasoning have left that the only option open to you. Once you claim that engineering and evolution is (somehow) the same process there is nowhere else left to go.
